Shameless

[Decades]

Fantastic programme. One of the best new things this year, surely?

Christmas special's on now...

[Grapevine]

Tis great. :D It is on the background now, but am taping it as I can't concentrate on watching it whilst being on here :rolleyes:

[Decades]

Tis great. :D It is on the background now, but am taping it as I can't concentrate on watching it whilst being on here :rolleyes:

I can assure that you'll enjoy it, it's very funny so far!

[Grapevine]

I can assure that you'll enjoy it, it's very funny so far!

Yeah I kept getting distracted by it but I've got grumpy old men on now mm christmas spirit :LOL:

[Sarah]

I never heard of it before the adverts for tonight. Fucking great! So true to Manchester..

[glasskite]

The whole series is one of the best new tv series this year. I missed half of the xmas special though.

[kev]

man i was working with that show in the background on and kept catching bits of it. what the fuck? i watched series 1 and followed that but the bits i saw tonight seemed like shameless then outbreak shaun of the dead :confused:

[glasskite]

It was a bit of a bizzare one. Then again, that family gets into the weirdest of situations.

[Decades]

There were some absolutely hilarious moments in it though...

[glasskite]

Oh god yes.

[SacredSilence]

BoLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLocks :'( I forgot it was on n missed it :'(

[Darkstar]

I watched it a bit when the first series was on, fucking hilarious. That dad is great!

[Liz010]

Disapointing as expected. Was abit over the top and dragged out at an hour 20ish mins. Loved the first series though and the second one should be good, needs new characters though. 'Early Doors' is even more spot on for Manchester, probably even better than Royal Family.

[abi]

Ah, shitfuck. I missed it.

[Hoppipolla]

Somebody, somewhere, could you clear this up for me:

Apart from the christmas special, is the episode where Frank has to fake his death, the last one in the first series? And if so, has there only been one series so far?

I love the show. But i need to know this.

Yes, to both your questions. New series starts next week though.

[Hoppipolla]

Yes, to both your questions. New series starts next week though.

I know, yeah. Deadly, I haven't missed anything... except the christmas special, which better be repeated.

[Sarah]

The repeats have already been on.

[tjej]

Huzzah it's back!

[Megalomaniac]

"Did you see the size of those dildos under the bed?? No wonder Sheila can't see straight!"

Aaaahahaha. Good episode, no? :)

[SacredSilence]

"Did you see the size of those dildos under the bed?? No wonder Sheila can't see straight!"

Aaaahahaha. Good episode, no? :)

:'( Someone buy me a new aerial so i can watch it...Either that or new digital box...I can get everything but channel 4 and the itv channels :(

[Darkstar]

"Did you see the size of those dildos under the bed?? No wonder Sheila can't see straight!"

Aaaahahaha. Good episode, no? :)
That was easily the best joke in there, the whole thing with those two women was great as well. Good stuff.

[Sarah]

I recorded it & just watched it. Ace on toast. Shame that he exaggerates his Manc accent, starts to get annoying. I might buy the first series on DVD.

[tjej]

Hahaha. He doesn't. All mancunians sound that bad. Except the ones from Altrincham... but that's cheshire so sod that.

[Noodles]

Hahaha. He doesn't. All mancunians sound that bad. Except the ones from Altrincham... but that's cheshire so sod that.
PM me your address again, in case I dont have it, and I`ll post your christmas special tape. :)

[Sarah]

Hahaha. He doesn't. All mancunians sound that bad. Except the ones from Altrincham... but that's cheshire so sod that.

Not ALL. No. It's a lot stronger than all my family's & some of them have very strong accents. But you're right about Altrincham, sound like bloody posh Southerners.

[tjej]

PM me your address again, in case I dont have it, and I`ll post your christmas special tape. :)
You star! You absolute star! *huuuuuuuuuuugs!*

[Liz010]

Fan-fucking-tastic. Exactly what i wanted to see this time. Dunno why they got it so wrong with the Christmas special. The writer seems to be bringing in more characters so should be great seeing as it's a 10 part series this time.

[Liz010]

Hahaha. He doesn't. All mancunians sound that bad. Except the ones from Altrincham... but that's cheshire so sod that.

What's their accent like?

[Sarah]

People from Altrincham?
Just think of someone who speaks posh. It's like that. Perfect English.

[Liz010]

People from Altrincham?
Just think of someone who speaks posh. It's like that. Perfect English.

I see what you mean, i prefer Franks accent anyday. Shame it only really occurs Manchester and not Greater Manchester.

[shadowkay]

ha, last nights was quality

[Sarah]

Have I missed the repeat?
Trust my sister to break Sky+ before I came home.

[Hoppipolla]

loving the new series

[shadowkay]

loving the new series
bought series one on dvd off play.com



(but now i swear im quitting play.com, ive spent too much)



^^ amature!

[Hoppipolla]

The 4th episode is fuckin brilliant. Best one yet. Keeps getting better

[Ullalume]

That was a great episode last night....Frank seemed like a completely different person when he was hugging Sheila.

[Sarah]

Frank cracks me up far too much.
Next weeks had me in tears from laughter at one point.

[Liz010]

That was a great episode last night....Frank seemed like a completely different person when he was hugging Sheila.

Aye i thought that too. Thought at first he just did it to keep things sweet s he could stay in the house for free. But the longer it went on it looked like he meant it.

Dunno why the writer put too good plots in one episode for next week, but should be double the fun next week.

I loved it when Frank was all compassionate, it made his character so much deeper, and he isn't half fucking funny with it!

Get my first series DVD through tomoro from play.com, Can't wait!

[Decades]

That episode was absolutely brilliant - best one there has been yet in my opinion. I hope Steve comes back though, as he's one of my favourite characters.

Had some great comedy moments in it as well.

[rockchik]

"Dogs can't lose their voice Marty."

"Canifyoupaythemenough"

Marty is definately the best character who hasn't been there from the beginning.

[Sarah]

Steve is/was ace.

[Ullalume]

steve is out of it?....hmm i'm obviously not following it very well.

[shadowkay]

steve is out of it?....hmm i'm obviously not following it very well.
cant wait for next weeks, better not be an anticlimax

[Hoppipolla]

Steve is/was ace.

He was dragging the show down. Causin' romantic soppy stories stopping Frank, Lip, Kev, Veronica & Fiona from dominating.

[Hoppipolla]

Also a terribly written character, and not really much interesting about him in the slightest in the 2nd series (minus his last episode, which, admittedly, was good)

[abi]

Thankfully Steve is out of it.

Steve is quality.

I'm fucking loving this series.

[Liz010]

Also a terribly written character, and not really much interesting about him in the slightest in the 2nd series (minus his last episode, which, admittedly, was good)

Yep his character did have a tendancy to be constantly about him being caught nicking cars and how he managed to get out of it once again or another secret from his past being exposed. Don't think he was a terrible character though. Just featured to much in the story line all at once.

Did Frank have one liners in the first series? I can't remember but every episode in the second seems to have one. Last week for me was "Where's your mummer gone? Where's your mummer gone?" There was a quality one the week before that when his baby went missing but can't remember it.

[Cheesy Grin]

I think Steve is actualy a well written character, if somewhat clichéd. But his last episode was really good, and he acted really well in it.

BUt on the subject of Frank, just in the intro, where he goes "Its been a good home to me, Frank Gallagher" in the best slurred manc accent ive ever heard.

[Cheesy Grin]

"Dogs can't lose their voice Marty."

...

...

"Canifyoupaythemenough"

Marty is definately the best character who hasn't been there from the beginning.

Yeah, too many revelations at once to add mystery to him. Maybe it was to create some umph/anger in Fiona/Steve relationship before he left.
& Frank's teh shizz. He had me almost in tears in episode 5. The Officer-Frank dialogue. *giggles*

[Hoppipolla]

Steve is quality.

I'm fucking loving this series.

Heh, I thought you were Jondalar again.
Yeah, he was ok, sometimes. Just most of the time he was badly written.
Is the album on your avatar any good?

Yep thats the impression i got as to why they did it as well. Seemed week though to be written like that, but i always think that in any series which will keep characters out of the frame for a few episodes, then they'll be in everyone after that. But over all tis a great series. If i remember correctly we still got another six episodes to go.

Watching on Channel 4? 6 episodes
Watching on e4? 5 episodes.

So I've 5 episodes...

I think I was crying laughter at that point, & the gay thing too. Jesus, that man will cause me to burst something.

[Liz010]

I think I was crying laughter at that point, & the gay thing too. Jesus, that man will cause me to burst something.

I thought it was gonna be written that he will be found out that he's gay. Glad it didn't happened though cos was funny seeing what they did to keep it hidden.

I hope the guy who does Frank does more films. He was one of the highlights of Master and Commander even when all he did was mumble.

Frank's monologue in the second episode of series one, has some of the funniest dialogue ever! When he's wandering round the city talking to himself!

:LOL: Quality!

"6 fucking kids"...."always fucking getting rounds in"...."and does anyone ever get me one"..."what do I get"..."Fuck all".

And in the first series when he's dressed up as a woman, and hides in the stock room of 'Cash and Carry' to find Kash's wife looking at a gay magazine: "Is anyone around here normal?"

[Decades]

Views on Episode 5 then?

I thought it was good, very funny. Not as good as last week's but it was still great. The dialogue between Frank and the Officer was hilarious, and the subplot with the videos was quite well done I thought.

They're still keeping up the top quality of the writing as far as I'm concerned...

[Sarah]

Episode six was genius.

[Llama]

I thought last nights episode was genius!
Marty has to be my favourite character...
Ian: "What are you giving him?"
Marty: "Speed"..."WaKeY WaKeY!!"
:LOL:

And when everyone ignored Frank, when he came up with an idea!

Did anyone see David Threlfall (spl?) on Richard and Judy last night?
It was so weird, he's so well spoken and looks so clean cut! It was just wrong!

Helllooooooo Steve's obvious replacement. Lurvely.

He was fine in the BBC's Burn It & he is still fine now.
Mmmmmm.

Mmmmmm.
*agrees* :D

[Hoppipolla]

Helllooooooo Steve's obvious replacement. Lurvely.

Well he's much more barable. Although they bring him in and fuck him out in the next episode. Completely forgetting about him. And then show us that she'll be pregnant with his baby the week after..

[Sarah]

Why don't you give it away for those without E4..

[Ullalume]

Oh i couldn't stop laughing when Sheila thought the twins were pigs.
great stuff.

[rockchik]

Oh i couldn't stop laughing when Sheila thought the twins were pigs.

I thought the funniest bit was at the end when sheila could see em all like the von trappe family :LOL:

[Hoppipolla]

Oh, right, yeah. Must remember to put warnings.

[Decades]

That was the weakest episode so far in my opinion.

[abi]

Last night's episode was just brilliant.
It was hilarious when Sheila got hit with an egg and thought she had been shot, pure genius.

[.modernRomance]

Hmm yes indeed :D

[Sarah]

:stunned:
I want more.

[Decades]

I really liked last night's episode (Ep. 9, I don't watch it on E4 even though I could).

[abi]

Me too. Fucking brilliant.

:stunned: Oh jesus. I might cry if next week is the last episode.

[Sarah]

It is & I have seen it already & yeah. They are repeating the Christmas special after though.
Did anyone see the actress who plays Fiona on Richard & Judy yesterday? I fell off my chair in suprise at her real accent. Jesus. Shows how Mancunian I sound. :unsure:

[christoph]

who's this new guy that girl got pregnant with?

i'm quite far behind, but where has the other guy gone. he admitted he had a daughter i think, and i haven't seen him in it since.

That's good, I wasn't paying a huge amount of attention to the Christmas special, due to an interesting conversation about bestiality with my friends. Yes.

I didn't see her, but she's quite a well-credited actress I think. It's all shocking, David Threlfall used to be in the RSC!

[Sarah]

who's this new guy that girl got pregnant with?

i'm quite far behind, but where has the other guy gone. he admitted he had a daughter i think, and i haven't seen him in it since.

New guy is Craig & the pregnancy was the result of a one night stand. Steve fucked off because he was involved in a drugs related death [he shot someone in defence] so those two stupid policemen were to blame & hid him so he had to leave.

ahhh its bloody over,

ah well crimbo specil next week

[Hoppipolla]

For anybody who's unaware or forgotten, the new series of Shameless starts tonight on channel 4. Can't wait. Although i'm secretly hoping fiona comes back. Better be as good or better than the last two series'

[Sarah]

I can't wait either!

Hmm I want Fiona back if it means Steve comes back.

[Decades]

Nah, they're both out of the show for good. Apparently Debbie has taken over as matriarch of the family, which should be interesting.

On a side note: Steve in Narnia, how low can you sink, Mr McAvoy?!

And oh, it doesn't start until tomorrow, Gary.

[Hoppipolla]

Nah, they're both out of the show for good. Apparently Debbie has taken over as matriarch of the family, which should be interesting.

I've heard from several people that Fiona's coming back towards the end of the series. Oh well, as long as Frank's there.

[Decades]

I've heard from several people that Fiona's coming back towards the end of the series. Oh well, as long as Frank's there.

I dunno, maybe a guest appearance, but they're definitely not coming back as regulars from what I've heard/read, which is a shame as their plotlines were what drove the show really. Although it may be good to see other characters in the "spotlight" for once...

Agreed on Frank.

[Hoppipolla]

I don't know if there's going to be anywhere near as much flow without them. I mean, Black Books and Teachers both get axed, and I'm guessing it's because this is sort of replacing them along with that Sugar Rush show which has been renewed, and they get rid (well, they chose to leave) of two of the main characters from it? I really hate channel 4, sometimes.

[Sarah]

If they chose to leave, what can you do? :S

[Hoppipolla]

If they chose to leave, what can you do? :S

Bring back black books and teachers! I'm just very bitter that they both never got to finish up properly. not many channel 4 shows do.

[Sarah]

To be fair, Black Books was losing it..

[Hoppipolla]

To be fair, Black Books was losing it..

I didn't think so. I thought the 3rd series was quite good. Maybe it was for the best. End it on a higher note. But still.. just one more series would have been nice.

[Decades]

It was Dylan Moran that chose to end Black Books though, he gave hints at it during stand-up shows and things - he thought the series had run its natural course.

Agreed on Teachers though, there was no need to axe that.

Having a new focus on Shameless will allow them to develop other characters... look on the positive side?

Really? Didn't know that. 18 episodes definitely wasn't enough for me.

I'm not being negative or anything, I just think that when main characters leave, the show always suffers. Except Teachers, actually. Em yeah, so maybe it'll be good.

Yeah, he wanted more free time to write a novel, he's stopped doing stand-up for the forseeable future as well. The man himself lives a street away from a friend of mine though, I once saw him while we were out walking her dog...

We can but hope.

[Sarah]

Is it on at 10pm? I'm too lazy to check when it is.

[Kazuya vs Ummagumma]

Is it on at 10pm? I'm too lazy to check when it is.
Tis, yes. I'll only watch it if Arsenal lose, otherwise I should be at the pub all night.

[Hoppipolla]

I'm waiting for that stupid match to end so I can go back downstairs without being told to shush.

[Decades]

This better be good...

[Hoppipolla]

Meh. The flow wasn't there. The episode was all over the place! However, they did have the one from teachers in it. :happy:

[Sarah]

I quite liked it & the one on E4 too.

Hurray.

[Hoppipolla]

Aren't you the person who made me not say what happens on the e4 one?

Well, now things have changed :indiff: I can't watch it that late, because i'll have to get up the next morning from next week onwards. So, I feel like i'm a week behind.

[Sarah]

I haven't said anything about the E4 one though, have I?

[Hoppipolla]

I haven't said anything about the E4 one though, have I?


Nope, thanks. :happy:
Although the 'next time on Shameless' never leaves much to the imagination.

[Sarah]

No it doesn't. But it does make you go "ooooh".

[James_Blunt]

Shameless roxs! that guy whos with the blonde chick looks a little like matt bellamy
Also, This Life, My Family,Bad Girls and Mile High

I reckon she's referring to Fiona.. Meaning Steve. :stunned:

I can't say I've ever seen the resemblence myself :erm:

And to Jazzlady, yeah - they definitely have, sadly enough. They take away all the good 'uns. Joey is still on air..? And as far as I know, My Family has lasted longer than Black Books and Teachers. :stunned:

All so shocking.

[Sarah]

Oh right. In which case, cock off does Steve look like Bellend. He's hot for a start..

& I tried watching Joey for the second time last night. How the fuck does it manage to be so unfunny? :S

[Wowee Zowee]

& I tried watching Joey for the second time last night. How the fuck does it manage to be so unfunny? :S
because Joey wasnt a funny character to begin with?

[Hoppipolla]

Oh right. In which case, cock off does Steve look like Bellend. He's hot for a start..

& I tried watching Joey for the second time last night. How the fuck does it manage to be so unfunny? :S

Yeah, I can't really see Bellamy in Steve, myself. But to a 'diehardmusefan' maybe Matt is everywhere..including her heart?

Yeah, it's unwatchable really. Not one funny joke in the 3 episodes I've seen now. And they've been branched out too.

because Joey wasnt a funny character to begin with?

Meh. That's debatable. I never liked him, really, but his character in early episodes of Friends was well written, well - as good as friends could go.

[Gemsy]

:LOL: "Karen... sucks... gash."

[Hoppipolla]

...did anybody see the 'next time on Shameless' clips at the end of the e4 episode? :stunned: The last clip was.. probably very misleading.

[Sarah]

I can't remember what the clips showed.

[expanding_universe]

Shameless roxs! that guy whos with the blonde chick looks a little like matt bellamy

I like your user name
Have you seen the video?
My favorite one of all time!
<3 Sigur Ros

[Decades]

By the clips it looks like they're going for a big finale, which just confirms to me the rumours that this series is the last...

[Sarah]

Is that the last one that was on E4?? I thought they do that whole skipping E4 for a week & show two episodes for the finale on Channel 4.

Hmmm.

[Gemsy]

Is that the last one that was on E4?? I thought they do that whole skipping E4 for a week & show two episodes for the finale on Channel 4.

Hmmm.
Yeah, they said that was the last one on the intro thingy. I was watching Hollyoaks though, so I have it to look forward to next week. :happy:

[Sarah]

That sucks. I swear they lasted longer than a few weeks. :(

[naughtica]

I LOVE THIS SHOW!!! I'm addicted to it

[ʘ]

Love it! Masiiiiiiiiiive! :LOL:
This show has so much heart. And no matter how ridiculous a situation is, it's always very believable...

Got the 2 first seasons on DVDs :D

[RadioBread]

*thread bumped* really got into this show off dvds being lent to me having not really known much about it before. genuisly written, and the amount of fucks in it is very mancunian. havent seen the 3rd series yet, im quite intrested to see how it works without fiona because she always lead the show for me, and i cant see how it will work without her in it at all. my favourite line for comedy genius is the episode when everyone thinks ian has got mandy pregnant and he leaves the room shouting fuck off and as he leaves carl says "casn i have his haddock?" the way he says it really made me laugh for some reason.

olol. i was walking through an estate while going to look at a house today, and it turned out to be part of the area where they film shameless hehe. - i can precisely remember a scene where carl is running away with a suitcase from the last season. its all around there :yesey:

[Sarah]

Not a good thing when looking for a new home. :p

I think the series has gone to shit now.

[Judderman]

[Sarah]

[Sarah]

[Judderman]

olol :LOL:

[Lynzi]

I miss Steve and Fiona, I havnt really seen it since they left, I've caught some odd half eps but it just seems rather crap now. And I miss Kev and Veronica too and Marty:(

They should all come back in it I reckon, even if Steve is a big movie star now;)

it's being filmed in wythenshawe now, near me but I don't recognise it because they've tried to make everwhere look like the old Chatsworth so no-one would really notice.

[Gemsy]

[*OoS*]

Shameless = :yesey:

:D

[Ullalume]

Yeah i'm happy enough with the Maguires..amazing.

[Sarah]

The Maguires are passable. Just not the same with the better characters, though. I can't watch it at all anymore.

[Ullalume]

I do really miss Sheila...she was the best.

I think the Maguires are great characters.. Kev and Veronica were great too..so it all equals out in my books.

[Judderman]

twice, its been a shot at the pub, and the kaiser chiefs - ruby have been playing! in this one ep.

[Ullalume]

I remember they played a fuckload of Cat Power songs in one episode.

[Judderman]

now time for the next one :happy:

[Sarah]

:confused:

They really don't compare to Kev & Veronica. They are passable but they aren't that good.

[Ullalume]

I reckon they do.

[Judderman]

I reckon they do.

+1 they have alot more to offer than kev and veronica.... i like them :yesey:
