Shameless back tonight.

Monica buggered off ages ago last series, leaving Norma there in her van for a few episodes and thus completely redundant to the family.

She left to go back to Newcastle.

Now that's something I did miss while watching on Tuesday :oops: ... was it mentioned then, or towards the end of the last series?? :confused:
 
Last series.

"Right Ho, now that Monica's buggered off, I am driving my van back up to Newcastle, like"

Or something like that.

She came back though? At least for a little while .... I mean after that short dalliance with that old pal of hers at the lorry park ...

I is getting confused I suspect.
 
Watched it on Tuesday (the C4 episode that is)**

Paddy getting shot was unconvincing. Wasn't found and didn't move for 12 hours, yet recovered to that extent? :hmm:

I quite liked whatsername's public repudiation of the Godmother act at the christening though. That was cool.

I await Joe's total exposure of the scumbag he is with interest .... it's got to happen sooner rather than later!

**please, any people who've watched the E4 episode as well -- can you not add spoilers to this thread? Cheers. :)
 
Back on form again tonight.

Karen's breakdown is convincing, Joe is up to something really nasty and Micky is fast becoming my favourite character. :)

It's definatly picking up again, last nights E4 one was quite good, but I'll leave out details for those who've not seen it. :)

One of the only shows I actually watch. So it must be good. :D
 
Definitely improving for me too. If (justified) complaints about earlier episiodes being poor/unconvincing relate to the writer/writing team changing from week to week, then I guess one unexpected side effect of such inconsistency is for it to revert to getting better again! :)

Let's hope it keeps up the improved standard.

Me too.I found it quiet harrowing.
That is one of the things I love about shameless the ability to have me in tears one minute and laughing my head off on the next.
 
The whole Joe story is a slow burning 'what the hell's happening next?' thing ... and all the better for that.

What the hell's happening to Mimi, she went proper loopy! :eek:

I thought the Frank story last night was a bit lame though, silly slapstick!
