O.M.G! So this past weekend I had the chance to binge through Season 4 of Showtime's Shameless. Man, do I miss this premium channel! Too many good movies and shows. Unfortunately, our cash flow isn't the same as it used to be so we had to cutback. (We preserved HBO and Starz for GOT and Spartacus...but now that it's over there might be some changes...hmmm...well, except for HBO. I think we would die before we give that up!) I've been a groupie for Shameless since Season 1, and now that the entire fourth season is over and readily available On Demand, I had to give in to
And oh my, was I rewarded. Hands down the best drama on TV. I laughed. I cried. I got angry and almost started flipping couches! (No couches were actually harmed.) I know some of you would argue that GOT is the best show on television presently...but after watching Season 4 of Shameless, I'm starting to wonder if I actually love it more!
So for the "nitty gritty", I think Emmy Rossum as Fiona deserves some type of award for her acting on this show. I mean she pulls off situations so well and is so believable when she does. I don't know how many times I cried
Also, I think the actor who plays Carl, Ethan Cutkosky, really showed some character depth. I was impressed! I loved that he had more of a role this season compared to the last couple seasons. It's cool to see the younger kids growing up and how Fiona is now dealing with teenagers instead of kids anymore.
Lastly, will Frank just die already! So tired of this dude. I know he makes the show so it would be difficult to kill him off...but he is starting to annoy me (and maybe that's the point?...Hmmm...Well done, William H. Macy, well done. I really hate you).
I'm so excited for next season and really pissed that I have to wait until next January (that's only if I get Showtime back. It will be June if I don't...first world problems).
If you watched it, let talk about it! If you haven't go see that ish!!! You will love it!
