Anyone watch 'Shameless'?

loved the first two series

don't have a tv - watched the first of this series at a pals house and felt no motivation to watch anymore. was truly great in the beginning though, but I don't think any series can survive the loss of its main characters and its main dramatic impetus.

quite tempted by his other thing that's out. apparently its shite, but has lots of attractive underage girls getting naked in it. tv gold.

We seem to be mastering the American creative exploitation of TV model, extruding and ruining series more and more.
Shameless should've left it at just the two series, imo.
As for Skins - I don't know what I'm missing, but it's .. well, it's pointless. It's running at about 2-3 chuckleworthy moments per episode, but beyond that - I just don't get what's its purpose is.
I wish my housemate didn't watch TV so much / I had a bigger living room.

surely I nailed the point in my previous post? I've never seen it though, so perhaps my fevered imagination has created a spectacle far outstripping reality. again.

Never have I seen such polarity between how fantastic the first two series of shameless were and how UTTERLY abysmal the latest series is...Shameful I now call it.

I'm watching 3rd season on sbs in australia right now.
I agree it's not as good as the first 2 seasons - but it's still a punch in the face, and everything that most television isn't.

hey kelpie. we also got rid of the TV two years ago.
i'm always surprised to hear other people can live without the tv...

shameless was funny

yeah I didn't ditch it by choice but after living in a reception black spot for a year I never felt like going back. 99% of the stuff that pours out of it is utter mind dulling drivel. I don't miss it.
wish I could have watched planet earth though, but that's what DVD players are for aint they?
