Shameless -- New Series with William H. Macy -- 20 Minute Preview -- 12/12/10
By djariya at 2010-12-12
Airs tonight after the Season Finale of Dexter. It's a 20 minute Preview of the Pilot which officially premieres on Sunday January 9th.
Synopsis:
Spoiler:
Starring:
William H. Macy
Emmy Rossum
Joan Cusack
Trailer:

Even though this is not the official Series Premiere, I figure this is worth mentioning since 20 minutes of a 60 minute Pilot is a fairly good sampling.

Look i know it's not fair to compare, but the english original, in particular the Frank gallager character and unduplicable
still i will give it a shot

I'll wait for entire premiere. With the amount of promos Showtime has been running for this show, I feel like I have already seen 20 minutes of it.

^ Yeah, no joke. I'll wait for the premiere as well. Also, interesting why Showtime is promoting the hell out of this show while virtually nothing has been promoted for Episodes (Matt LeBlanc).

Incidentally, I believe Series 8 of the UK Shameless is supposed to start airing sometime in January (actually, the 24th), and will be a record 22 episodes. I'm really looking forward to that.

While she's been in many things (Mystic River, Phantom of the Opera, etc...), I remember her best as the girl that Donnie Darko had the crush on in the Day After Tomorrow.

They've remade Shameless - there is no way Frank Gallagher can translate.
Okay I watched the trailer there, and it's pretty much word for word. I like Emmy!

I decided to bite -- pretty solid preview. Will catch the remaining 10 minutes on January 9th.

Looks like it could be entertaining, emmy rossum looked hot in that scene. I wasn't aware of the british version, hopefully it's a better american translation than top gear..

I thought this was great. Likable cast, funny moments and it doesn't hurt that Emmy Rossum is hot. I had no idea there was a British version until reading this thread so I can't compare. But I'm looking forward to the full premiere and getting to see more of William H. Macy's character.

Looks promising, and hopefully Emmy keeps letting it hang out.

I initially hated it when the US Office first episode that did that, but thankfully they went their own way. Maybe Shameless will do the same thing?

Started watching this.
Good cast, other than the moron teen from WOTW as Steve. Fucker couldn't emote if you tazed him.
