Shameless (Seasons 1–11)

Shameless (2011) is Showtime's sharp comedy-drama you can watch online on iFILM. William H. Macy stars as Frank Gallagher — a six-kids single father in Chicago's South Side who drinks through every dollar the family scrapes together and calls it parenting.

The kids run the show themselves. Lip (Jeremy Allen White) is smart enough for any college but too broke and stubborn to get there. Ian (Cameron Monaghan) hides a private life none of his siblings fully see. Carl (Ethan Cutkosky) gravitates toward trouble the way other kids gravitate toward sports. Mickey Milkovich (Noel Fisher) shows up as a threat and ends up one of the series' most compelling figures. Across 134 episodes over 11 seasons, each Gallagher lurches from one mess to the next — debt, scams, pregnancy, court dates — and somehow the family holds.

John Wells Productions kept Shameless running on Showtime from 2011 to 2021. The show has no tidy lessons. It just keeps moving, like the Gallaghers themselves. Stream all seasons of Shameless online on iFILM.
