Shameless: The Complete Second Season [Blu-ray]



Shameless S-2; A Mirror of My Family
This is a terrific series. I grew up with a couple alcoholic parents that delved into some mild drugging and I see a great deal of my childhood as well as my own adult life in so much of Shameless. I'm not saying my family's lives were as hilariously funny as Frank's whole crew but I'm sure they could get some good material from me. I'd feared this series would be taken as too farsical and dispensed with after the first season. Usually when I like a series really well it disappears. William Macy has done a terrific job of depicting a deplorable, filthy, alcoholic with absolutely no morals. My hat is off to the rest of the cast. It is impressive the child actors can bring across such convincing roles portraying the lives of a dysfunctional family so well.

The title sums it up...absolutely Shameless
It is an additive series. You have to watch just to see how low the family can sink and shake your head at the next act.

Awesome season!
Loved the second season! Everything tied together so dysfunctionally, yet so awesomely. Loved every single story line; had kringe worthy moments along with the 'awe' moments as well as the 'holy s***' moments. Highly recommend this season and if you haven't seen the first season, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!
