Premiere: 1/17/2016
Written by Nancy M. Pimental
Debbie’s determined to keep her baby while Fiona’s determined to persuade her to abort. Debbie carries a bag of flour around all day to prove Fiona wrong about her ability to raise a child while going to school. She quickly realizes people are not as accommodating to mothers and babies as she hoped.

Weren't you guys predicting that Fiona was gonna be pregnant and not know if the father was her husband or Sean? Well, I guess you were right. There can't be much a time jump between last season and this one for Debbie and Fiona to have gotten pregnant last season. I don't know how that matches up with allowing Carl enough time to juvie.
I'm looking forward to seeing where Carl's new business venture goes.
I don't believe that the cancer woman with Frank wouldn't have had sex for 15 years. She was decent looking and probably looked pretty hot when she was younger and pre-cancer.
I wonder when we'll see Sammi again.

Huh. well what do you know. It only took almost a year to come to fruition. Only toss Steve/Jimmy in to the name pool of who the daddy is between Sean and whatever the fuck her husband's name was.
My statement about Sammi still stands. I hope that we don't see any more of her ever again.

Yeah, I have no desire to see Sammi again anytime soon. Not surprised about Fiona's situation and am not looking forward to a drawn-out pregnancy "whodunit". Hopefully they don't go there.
The only thing I'm liking this season thus far are Carl, Lip and Kevin's "best worst bar". Frank is being Frank.

Yea, Carl's story is the best one going... but even then it's nothing that great. He's just doing what he's always doing but to a more hardcore level.
One line that bothered me in this was Fiona's "go sleep in your room, Frank". WTF? Frank is not only welcome in the house still... but he has a place to sleep as well? How can these people be this stupid to allow Frank back again and again after all the shit he's pulled?

Same way Lip pulls in massive tail no matter what and the same way Fiona can be trusted to be in any sort of relationship.

This show can be really dumb sometimes. All those texts with "#abortionrules" was eye rollingly lame.
I hope we don't get a "whose baby is it?" and instead get a story of Fiona getting an abortion in secret and Sean's disappointment when he finds out. Not that the latter is a better story but it's at least not an annoying reason to bring back Jimmy/Steve and the husband.
I think the Deb stuff is pretty good. It exploits the shows setting a lot in the way it did with early Lip. We're watching this girl make a horrible decision but at the same time it makes sense considering the environment she grew up in. And it's in typical Shameless fashion where it isn't taking itself too seriously.
I wish they would lean less on Fiona and expand on the gentrification story line. It has a lot of potential and I think it would be a good way to use Frank instead of having him stuck with this Bianca nonsense.
And bring back Mickey and Ian, somehow.
