Gus won that episode for sure. Fiona's tirade against Deb was great too.

I don't know, this was pretty bleak for me. Fiona song was kinda funny. Seems like this show used to be a lot funnier.

I thought it was pretty good. Some of my faith in the series has been restored.

dunno I liked it better when most of the family was likeable, now it's basically carl n lip who I don't want to punch in the face for being such bitches.

oh and frank obv, frank is goat.

Ian needs to get slapped and it's really too bad mickey had to basically drop out of the show.

did mickey drop out of the show to concentrate on his role as the voice of a ninja turtle? what else does he have going on?

I think the actors who play Debbie and Carl are kinda crappy. Always felt that way, but their lack of acting experience becomes even more glaring the older they get. Kinda like the kids on Modern Family.

From what I have read, the writers decided not to focus on his storyline this season. Showtime gonna Showtime.

That's why I liked the scene with Carl and the cop dad. I took him down a few notches and made him a kid again.

that whole gun plot was awful, especially the payoff with everyone pulling guns on each other... this show used to be a bit extreme, but that was slapstick comedy.

The gunwaving completely ruined the episode for me. It would've been fun/ok if they ended the joke when the principal bought the gun. Everything beyond that point was just so incredibly stupid I wanted to tear my head off.

Have we talked about how ridiculous it is that the show is trying to pretend theres a legit possibility Fiona's baby is either Gus's (lol) or JimmySteve's (lol, gtfo, impossible).

The timeline would just make no sense. It's not like she's 5 months pregnant---Jimmy has been gone for a season plus and she ghosted Gus and has been with Mulroney exclusively since halfway through last season.

So much has happened since then, it's impossible and annoying.

Fiona said she didn't know who the father is, and mentioned Mulroney, Gus, and JimmySteve as all possibilities.

I'm saying its stupid, if Mulroney isn't the father the show is dumb.....the timeline doesn't work.

I quit on this 20 minutes into this episode when the Greek guy was asking Kev to kill somebody. I just don't give a **** anymore. gg Shameless, you had a good run.

I agree it's fallen off a cliff but the payoff on the Greek dude plot was pretty awesome.
Kev blowing as dude was burning was hilarious.

I completely agree w all of that. This episode as a whole was the worst in a long while, but the payoff of the 'burning man' was good...also gives Fiona a new home i suppose.

I really hate pretty much every storyline going right now. Carl's I guess has potential.
