Shameless continues to tell the story of alcoholic father Frank Gallagher (William H. Macy) and his six smart and independent kids who are working to survive without him. The rest of the cast includes Emmy Rossum, Jeremy Allen White, Cameron Monaghan, Emma Kenney, Ethan Cutkosky, Shanola Hampton, Steve Howey, Justin Chatwin, Joan Cusack, Noel Fisher, Emma Greenwell, Dermot Mulroney, and Isidora Goreshter.

What do you think? Do you like the Shameless TV show? Do you think it should be renewed for an eighth season or cancelled instead?
This show has been pretty awful the last few seasons and should’ve been canceled a long time ago. I used to really enjoy the show, too. However, the storylines have just become totally absurd, and the characters aren’t even remotely likeable anymore. Time to put the Gallaghers to bed…
I LOVE SHAMELESS!! please don’t cancel it. It’s the only thing I have to look forward to Sunday nights! Reminds me of my dysfunctional family to some extinct. So hilarious lol
Cancel this now! Don’t even bother airing the last episodes!
They completely ****** it up. They ****** up a genuinely good show beyond repair. Season 6 was a complete disaster. And even if i didn’t think it was possible but season 7 is even worse. And it seems that the audience is catching up on that, i mean they lost almost 17 % viewers compared to last season. Please put this misery to an end. It’s time.
Please cancell Shameless season 7 stinks, enough is enough, Frank is not a drunk, Lip is not in school, Fiona no husband, not even funny or shameless
Pleassssseee don’t cancel the show!! GALLAVICH fans want more MICKEY!! I wish to see him for at least one more season. Not ready to say goodbye just yet!!!
Please bring Shameless back for more seasons.Keep in mind the world series took many people off of their regular TV viewing this year.So forgive us,I dvr d my shows during the playoffs,now I’m back every Sunday with the Gallagher family.
I love shameless. It needs jimmy and Sheila back. It’s lost its way a little. We need Fiona with a wild bad boy and Sheila brings the comedy.
Please, please, please get the old cast back.
Why is this show even still on? It stopped being worth watching a long long time ago…
This show is getting more and more ridiculous with every single episode. I mean the writing has never been this special but at least in the earlier seasons the cast did everything to sell this nonsense. But ever since season 6 the majority of the cast is obviously only there for the paycheck and is just phoning it in. Except maybe for Jeremy Allen White. He’s still brilliant, the rest not so much.
It’s time for sure that the show gets axed bye bye!
I hope it gets axed the show became so unberable & boring to watch it was good first 3 seasons (& 4th to some extent) after that it started to suck terribly. They removed so many interesting characters & replaced them with annoying ones like that ”thing” Trevor. Sammi was iritating but at least she added some dynamic to the show these new ones are terrible. The show was NEVER the same without Sheila i wonder why Joan Cusack left?
Well i definitely wouldn’t call Trevor a “thing”. That’s downright offensive, i mean he is absolutely annoying but still. But i totally agree with everything else you said.
Do us a favor and just cancel it! The storylines have closed more or less in the last episode so just cancel it now and don’t air other episodes. Time to bring in a fresh and better show that has some interest
Please don’t cancel!
I absolutely LOVE this show!! Please don’t cancel I’m totally hooked on these characters. The show and actors are fantastic.
