I just got hooked on a series on Showtime called Shameless. William H. Macy is terrific as a hopeless drug/alcohol abuser and it is the story of his family and neighborhood in Chicago. It it really well done - I went back and started from the beginning. Showtime on demand is a great thing.

Second that... don't see why they had to make a US version, I'm sure the UK one can be understood by Americans.

Yeah the US version was a cheap imitation. The quirks that the English version has is unrivaled, infact Frank is absolutely spot on in his acting as an alcoholic, i know an alky woman who is very very like him, his mannerisms are spot on.

Saying that the latter few series have gone rapidly downhill, the first 5-6 though are great.

There all on 4OD online too mate. Got to love 4OD for keeping me entertained.

All the seasons of Peep Show also which is another amazing show for the UK'ers here. Not sure how well the humour would cross over for those over seas though.

Shameless was good, maybe up until about 2006-7 but now its way, way past its peak and needs to be finished.

Haha yeah Inbetweeners is class.

I thought the same NickyScarfo but i re-watched the last two series recently and actually enjoyed them a second time round. Took abit of getting used to some of the new characters.

Finally started the US version of this (haven't seen the UK version yet). Halfway thru the first season, via Netflix. Good stuff! When I finish the first 2 seasons of US, I'll check out the UK version (but 9 seasons of that? Hmm, might be rough)!


I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey! tongue lol

J Geoff, the UK version is much better but its gone on way too long, I would just watch the first four seasons.
