The Ian gay boys story line is horrible. Kev and V have kinda jumped the shark. Frank is in a lull. The older he gets the less funny Carls thing is. Deb is nasty and too close to actual white trash.
Fiona's bra and panty dance is the best thing about her right now.
That and seeing Lip's chicks naked is the highlight of some episodes.

Looking back I see I'm a season behind.

I pretty much agree with all of this. To me Fiona is no longer that hot; She needs to eat a sandwich or two. My favorite character on this show by far is Svetlana. That scheming Russian knows how to play the game. Kev: Is that a dead body in that bag? Svetlana: I don't think she's quite dead yet.

I then watched as they occurred with new episodes.

This year sucks and they jumped the shark sometime last year. Not sure the exact moment but this year is so stupid and has all the stereotypical crap and really silly story lines.

Now sad and pissed.

Yep, its gone down hill, time to wrap it up.

I haven't watched any of the current season. Is the nudity at least up to par?

Poor Liam. That was worse than ODing on cocaine.

And of course, Frank is a Tank.

Any thoughts on this 9th season at the halfway point?

Seems like they are rushing through to collect paychecks. Also hard to keep writing crazy after 9 seasons and have originality.

this season is a fire sale with two leaving after this season. just clearing house for the new arrivals next year. of course i am only guessing.

given that the uk shameless lasted 11 years, 20 plus episodes w/over 45 min, i think there is plenty story to tell, it's just in limbo.

i was even thinking several weeks ago, it was odd that the us version had held onto so many characters this long. for example, the uk version ran fine without fionna, as she was only part of the series for the first two seasons.

I know that Emmy Rossum is leaving but who else is going to leave?

Ian [Cameron Monaghan] is already out. Him and Mickey in prison is, as of now, an officially closed storyline.

Will this be the last season for the show?
