Thread: Shameless

SO, did anyone watch the premiere of Shameless on Showtime tonight? I'm likin' it so far! If you haven't heard about it--plot revolves around a dysfunctional family & their lives. Also...show featured both a Panerai and a Ferrari 456...so off to a good start in my book!

Looking forward to the next episode.

I completely forgot to watch Showtime tonight... bah. I guess I'll wait till it's available on demand.

it is showing promise, but in my opinion they have an uphill battle given how good the UK version is, should be a decent show though. don't know about the sudden wave of UK show adaptations MTV will be attempting to cover SKINS starting on jan 17.

Oh shit I didn't realize it wasn't an original show!

Just watched it and I have to say I enjoyed it. It's nothing spectacular but it was humorous and easy to watch.

I've never seen the UK version, was it also called Shameless?

good show thus far, hopefully the writers take it to a higher level.

yup, same title.

The pilot wasn't bad, I actually went and got the british version after watching it and the first episodes are pretty much identical it will be interesting to see if they branch off like the US office did.

LOL i read the first post and i thought "Frank!" then Panerai and F458 "eh"???????

Then i realised the USA had copied it
