Telly’s Take

Will Showtime cancel or renew Shameless for season 11? Though this show’s been on for many years, it continues to be one of Showtime’s most popular series. Despite some cast changes, there’s been no talk of ending just yet so I suspect the series will be renewed. For now, I’ll keep an eye on the ratings and update this page with breaking developments.
