Season seven of Shameless just premiered last night, but will it be the last season? Recently, executive producer Nancy Pimental spoke with TVLine about the future of the Showtime series.
The comic drama follows the ups and downs of a Southside Chicago family. The cast includes Emmy Rossum, William H. Macy, Jeremy Allen White, Cameron Monaghan, Emma Kenney, and Steve Howey.
In the interview, Pimental said the staff has discussed ending the series after season eight:
We talk about it. We’ve certainly mentioned doing at least Season 8. Then we also say, “Look, it’s a family, and the kids are growing. It could go on forever.” The Shameless in England, I don’t even know if it’s still going on, but they went for many seasons. When you have this many characters in a family where the dynamics are changing, people are growing, it could go on indefinitely. So we’ve talked about all options, [including] wrapping it up in a year or two. Or do we have more stories in us, because we have so many characters?”
What do you think? Do you watch Shameless? Do you think the show should end soon?
