After an unforgettable 10-year run, the beloved comedy-drama television series Shameless bid farewell in April 2021, etching a profound memory in viewers’ hearts. Shameless made its cast members millionaires, some earning over $350,000 per episode.
Originating from a British TV show, Shameless, which debuted on Showtime in January 2011, revolved around the Gallagher family’s unorthodox dynamics as they navigated through chaos, addiction, and financial struggles.

The "Shameless" cast have an adorable friendship that has lasted long past the show's final season. The main cast have frequently shared photos of their hangouts online over the years, and they seem to enjoy celebrating holidays together to this day. On Oct. 26, Cameron Monaghan, Ethan Cutkosky, and Emma Kenney - who played Ian, Carl, and Debbie Gallagher, respectively - all appeared together in a TikTok video, seemingly enjoying a Halloween celebration. Kenney dressed as Kris Jenner and captioned the video, "They just got Krissed." Meanwhile, Cutkosky seemed to be dressed in a chef's uniform, a possible reference to his "Shameless" costar Jeremy Allen White's character on "The Bear."
"Shameless" ran for eleven seasons from 2011 to 2021. It follows the Gallagher family through their trials and tribulations on Chicago's South Side, and its huge ensemble cast consists of Emmy Rossum, William H. Macy,...

Of course, the raucous Gallagher family isn’t without real-life scandals. As the series was winding down, actor William H. Macy’s wife, actor Felicity Huffman was involved in a high-profile college admissions scandal. Huffman was found guilty of hiring a proctor to change her daughter’s answers on the Sat. She received a short prison sentence and a fine. Macy was not charged.
But since the series wrapped in 2021, where is the Shameless cast now?
Jeremy Allen White returned to Chi-town and another gritty role
Actor Jeremy Allen White (Lip) dove headfirst into another powerful role – also set in Chicago.

ABC is going all-in on The Conners, as the Roseanne spinoff series has been given a 22-episode order for its current fifth season. According to Deadline, the news was shared during the October 7 taping of the popular sitcom. The 22 episodes make this the biggest season of The Conners ever — the first season, which came after the Roseanne revival crashed and burned, consisted of just 11 episodes, while Seasons 2 -4 included 20 episodes each. The show also added a new character in its latest episode. It was revealed that Louise and Neville’s estranged brother Aaron died of a heart attack, leaving behind a 17-year-old son named Caleb, played by Shameless‘ Ethan Cutkosky, who reunited with fellow Shameless alum Emma Kenney (Harris Conner-Healy). The Conners premiered on October 16, 2018, following the cancellation of Roseanne in May of that year due to controversial comments made by Roseanne Barr on Twitter.

Kylie Jenner's friends aren't too thrilled about Tana Mongeau's apparent obsession with Kylie's 3-year-old daughter Stormi. But Tana seems to think the criticism is overblown. The 23-year-old YouTuber was seen at a recent event with Ethan Cutkosky, when fans noticed that her phone lock screen looked awfully familiar. Tana's phone wallpaper was set to an image of Stormi engulfed in a bubble bath. "This pic makes me happy," mom Kylie wrote in March 2020 while revealing the adorable snap. More than a year later, Kylie's bestie Stassie Karanikolaou seemed confused as to why Tana was using the picture on her phone. "Weird,"...

YouTuber Tana Mongeau's current phone lock screen is raising quite a few eyebrows. Most recently, the 23-year-old vlogger was spotted at an event with her arms around actor Ethan Cutkosky. However, it wasn't the friendly hug itself that's caused a stir—but rather the placement of her phone, since it appeared to show that she currently has a photo of Kylie Jenner's daughter, Stormi Webster, as her lock screen. The photo, which was reposted by a fan account on Instagram on Oct. 28, garnered mixed reactions from social media users, but Kylie's Bff, Stassie Karanikolaou also entered the chat, commenting that the choice of wallpaper was...

Although television — and Hollywood in general — has made great strides in recent years when it comes to depictions of female consent and sexual assault, it still seemed rare to see the same conversations being had on screen when it comes to male characters.
This television season feels different.
In the seventh episode of the fourth season of Hulu’s “The Handmaid’s Tale,” Elisabeth Moss’ June — flush with power after seemingly vanquishing her enemy, Yvonne Strahovski’s Serena — awakens her sleeping husband (O-t Fagbenle’s Luke), mounts him and proceeds to have sex with him. After he tells her to wait, she holds down his hands and covers his mouth.
In Netflix’s “Bridgerton,” Phoebe Dynevor’s Daphne is desperate to procreate despite her husband, Simon’s (Regé-Jean Page), wishes and uses her just-gleaned rudimentary knowledge of conception to perform a similar sexual act. Afterward, Simon is so uncomfortable and traumatized...

After 11 seasons of drinking, depravity and debauchery, fans showed up for Showtime’s last call for “Shameless,” the premium cabler’s longest-running series to date, this past Sunday. The final episode of the dramedy and 12th episode of Season 11, titled “Father Frank, Full of Grace,” drew a cross-platform total of 1.5Mm, up 41% versus the penultimate episode (1.1Mm) and 29% over the premiere (1.2Mm).
The 9 p.m. linear telecast on April 11 garnered 695,000 viewers, up 33% from the penultimate episode, and essentially tied with the season premiere’s telecast on Dec. 6, 2020 as the best telecast of the season.
As with all premium series, the bulk of viewing will be delivered across platforms on-demand, streaming and delayed viewing— so the numbers will likely increase once those metrics are factored in. Sunday’s projected on-demand and streaming number, 769,000, jumped by 61% from the penultimate episode and delivered a series high for the show.

No shame in these numbers: The series finale of “Shameless” drew 1.511 million total viewers across multiple platforms, according to Showtime. That’s a season high, 29% better than the Season 11 premiere (1.2 million viewers) and +41% from the comedy’s penultimate episode (1.1 million).
It is a shame, however, that the long-running show is over. The 11-season “Shameless” was Showtime’s most-watched and youngest-skewing comedy. When you factor both of those claims in, it makes sense that “Shameless” was Showtime’s most-streamed comedy series of all time.
Linearly, the 9 p.m. “Shameless” series finale telecast drew 695,000 TV viewers. The rest of the viewing came from streaming and on-demand.
Prior to the launch of Showtime’s over-the-top streaming platform in 2015 (so from 2011-2015), “Shameless” averaged 5.19 million total viewers per episode, according to the premium cable channel. But that giant number includes any and all episodic viewership while the season was in its first run. In other words,...

Spoiler Alert: This post contains details of the series finale of Shameless tonight.
After 11 seasons, it was truly last call for Frank Gallagher tonight on the series finale of multiple SAG Awards winner Shameless.
Having apparently overdosed in the penultimate episode, the William H. Macy portrayed debauched patriarch evaded his maker one more time to the frustration of his offspring and extended family. However, as son Lip (Jeremy Allen White) and lady love Tami (Kate Miner) face the prospect of another baby as they are barely scraping by and brother Ian (Cameron Monaghan) and hubby Mickey (Noel Fisher) move up the social ladder and contemplate a baby of their own, the dementia inflected Frank is laid low in the end by another adversary that had plagued the final season – the coronavirus.

After 11 seasons, Shameless has come to an end. The series finale of the R-rated Showtime dramedy was released on-demand at midnight on Sunday, April 11 and aired on the cable channel in the evening. Since 2011, fans have watched the Gallagher kids grow older. Liam started out as just a baby! In fact, Carl was a child when audiences first met him. The actor who played him, Ethan Cutkosky, told The Chicago Tribune in 2014 that he was initially not allowed to watch the show due to its mature content. "By the time I was able to watch it, I already knew about all that stuff," he said. "Half that stuff is probably going on in my school." Over 11 seasons, fans...

Spoiler Alert: Do not read if you have not yet watched “Father Frank, Full of Grace,” the series finale of “Showtime,” available on-demand now.
After 11 seasons of debauchery, drinking, and downright denial, “Shameless” and the Gallagher crew said farewell in the April 11 series finale, “Father Frank, Full of Grace” with an expected ending and more than a few lingering questions about the surviving characters.
The episode followed immediately on the penultimate episode’s final moments, with Frank (William H. Macy) having overdosed on the family sofa and not one member of the household even slightly concerned that the patriarch may have finally exited this world. Only Liam (Christian Isaiah) had any insight as to his dad’s mental health status when those heroin needles reappeared, but rather than call an ambulance, the family collectively decided to grab a cup of coffee and carry on with their day as they waited...

The episode followed immediately on the penultimate episode’s final moments, with Frank (William H. Macy) having overdosed on the family sofa and not one member of the household even slightly concerned that the patriarch may have finally exited this world. Only Liam (Christian Isaiah) had any insight as to his dad’s mental health status when those heroin needles reappeared, but rather than call an ambulance, the family collectively decided to grab a cup of coffee and carry on with their day as they waited...

When executive producer John Wells was working on the final season of “The West Wing” in 2006 he recalls having a very “easy” end point because the show began with the first year of Jed Bartlett’s presidential administration and, seven years later, it would be poetic to end with him leaving the office and a new president (Matt Santos) sworn in. Now that Wells is saying goodbye to another long-running, beloved series in Showtime’s “Shameless,” though, things are far more complicated.
“With this, we’re just following people’s lives,” Wells tells Variety of the Gallagher family on the Showtime dramedy. “We just have to walk away from them at some point.”

The final season of Shameless is coming to Showtime this December, and the premium cabler has just dropped the first footage.
It shows the characters at very different stages in life than when we left them on Shameless Season 10.

As a result, scripts were rewritten to incorporate the pandemic, which makes sense.
If you watch Shameless online, you know the Gallaghers would definitely be affected by the pandemic.
The series has typically brought social issues to the forefront.
