Hi Elsie, no I haven't properly watched even a full episode of Shameless. Awhile back I watched a bit of it on You Tube and then I was going to order it off of Amazon, and then I saw that it comes on the Sundance channel, so I started watching for James and AM but they don't ever seem to show the seasons they are in, then I just forgot about ordering it. That's interesting what he said about the show though...I don't suppose he ever went into details as to why it was so bad?
