Follows the lives of the Gallagher family, six children who live with their alcoholic father. - Warner Home Video
Meet Frank Gallagher, a working-class patriarch who loves his six kids almost as much as he loves booze, cigarettes, his monthly disability check and booze. So he leaves it to eldest daughter Fiona to hold the family together and make sure everyone (except Frank) works to keep the lights on and food on the table. William H. Macy and Emmy Rossum lead a brilliant cast in the complete first season of Shameless, a big-hearted, irreverent, outrageous and outrageously funny series in the tradition of... well, nothing.
