Top 25 TV Shows of 2016
Similar to the previous years in the last decade or so 2016 was a great year for television. Maybe television even had a better year than films this time around, some would say. With major streaming competitors like Netflix and Amazon placing more emphasis than ever on their own original programming offerings, we saw premium…
Shameless: (S07E11) “Happily Ever After”
For a Shameless episode titled ‘Happily Ever After’ a sad ending should’ve been a shock to no one. Especially for Ian and Mickey. The mere fact that there plotline was even continue in this episode was proof that the couple weren’t going to have a happy ending. After driving around desperately trying to find a…
Shameless (S07E10) “Ride or Die”
Was this Cameron Monaghan’s last episode on Shameless? Well, condolences to all the Ian Gallagher stans but this in fact maybe true. As the show might be coming to an end soon (well maybe not), contracts are expiring and rumor has it Cameron (and Emmy Russom too) weren’t willing to renew their contracts for another season….
Shameless (S07E09) “Ouroboros”
Spoilers: Don’t read if you haven’t seen the episode. Well what a fantastic episode of Shameless this has been! Hurricane Monica makes another surprise return to inadvertently torment the Gallagher family, and I think the phrase “Fuck Monica” is one both the Gallagher’s and viewers can agree upon. The sentiment and emotions echoed on throughout…
Shameless (S07E07) “You’ll Never Ever Get a Chicken in Your Whole Entire Life”
This episode of Shameless didn’t show much plot progression as things were pretty much the same as last week’s episode at the end. Fiona had some doubts about the laundromat she invested in. It proved to be very expensive to maintain. I think this whole situation is ‘un-Gallagher’ of her because what any other Gallagher would…
Shameless (S01E06) “The Defenestration of Frank”
This episode of Shameless in deed felt like a mid-season finale as some of the plotlines we’ve been getting used to over the past few week wrapped up. It makes me wonder what’s next for the Gallaghers? Frank got kicked out of the ‘homeless’ shelter for – what he does best- which is scamming. It…
Shameless (S07E05) “Own Your Shit”
Warning: Full Spoilers Child Protection Services is back in Shameless once again and some might think it’s repetitive but it is only a motif in Shameless’s writing and story arc. And a much needed one at this time since Debbie has been carelessly dragging Frannie along with her during her schemes to get money. Getting…
Shameless (S07E04) “I am a storm”
Fiona setting herself on a gradual path to her dreams seems to be the main plotline in Shameless this season. It is evident that she has grown apart from her best friends Kev and V and seems to be slowly growing apart from her family too. After a small quarrel with Lip, Fiona hastly ran…
Shameless (S07E03) “Home Sweet Homeless Shelter”
Review: This episode of Shameless was the best of the season so far in my opinion. It showed just the right amount of drama and honestly was the most comedic episode of Shameless since S6.E9. But a bit on the downside, there isn’t really anything new here as Shameless writers hasn’t really changed the way they tell stories…..but I…
Shameless (S07E02) “Swipe, Fuck, Leave”
Review: Yet another wildly fun episode of Shameless, filled with inappropriate, amusing and grossly humored scenes that had me either smiling or laughing the entire time. I mean that’s what Shameless is all about right? Things picked up right where they left off last episode, with Fiona trying to get Frank out of her room. But…
Shameless (S07E01) “Hiraeth”
Review: Showtime’s Dramedy Shameless returned for its seventh season last Sunday, making it the second season of the show to air in 2016. Although Shameless isn’t as cleverly written as it was during its earlier seasons, the shows still possesses many of its ‘unique elements’ which made the show so great in the first place. It is still…
