I've binged on this and am half way through the third season.
Hooked. Love this show.
Really didn't need another show to watch...thank goodness for Netflix and on demand.

(4,851 posts)Its a little mindless brain porn for me. I love it, but it will probably run its course soon enough.

(42,770 posts)gets no awards? supposedly because it is half drama half comedy.
who is your favorite character?

(20,043 posts)I love Kevin. Don't know why but he's my favorite.
My son has been watching the last 2 seasons and he told me to watch. He watched the previous seasons with me.
I really like it...makes me laugh.
Though I do think it addresses current issues in it's own bizarre way.
Laura PourMeADrink
(42,770 posts)time and does the right thing....but he can be so funny sometimes...the whole deal
with him trying to get his mother in law pregnant was so amazingly off-the-wall -
we laughed our a$$es off.
they are all so great - it's hard to choose. Mandy really sticks out to me though. She grew up in London and
studied at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art. Yet, she plays that poor bad girl from the wrong
side of the tracks brilliantly to me.

how heartbreaking is this storyline? I don't think any tv show I've ever seen has portrayed poverty so well.

(20,043 posts)Fiona.
And Carl...
I was so angry when I thought Lip & going to school wasn't going to work out.
Laura PourMeADrink
(42,770 posts)country to get a liver? It's amazing he doesn't get an emmy nod - he supposedly
lost a whole bunch of weight for this.
Carl's got to be my current fav. Don't like the way Debbie has turned at all - she was always so sweet.
Lip has gotten pretty self-righteous and unlikeable no??

(20,043 posts)Frank--the actor William H Macy--has lost a ton of weight for this, he really does look like shit.
Funny my son said the same thing about Debbie. I'm worried for Carl--he keeps getting more and more extreme.
Lip--I was pissed with how he treated Fiona after the 'accident' (don't want to give anything away in case people haven't seen it). As if hasn't messed up.
Kevin/Veronica and the babies--felt so bad for Kevin after mom in law had the kid.
And then there's Ian--what the heck is going to happen to him when the Army catches up with him.
I bet season finale leaves us hanging on either Fiona or Lip's legal issues--at least that's going to be one of the cliffhangers.
Laura PourMeADrink
(42,770 posts)hope not - but isn't that the way it is? I didn't realize you have to
wear the ankle deal when you are on probation, is that right? In real life, I mean.
What I don't get is -- why doesn't she go to the family of her ex boyfriend and
tell them she needs money or she will turn the brother in?

(42,770 posts)Jimmy Steve is BACK !!! YEAH....

(2,351 posts)In what way is he back, do you know? In flashbacks or something else?
Laura PourMeADrink
(42,770 posts)last scene of season finale. He was in a car with an unknown driver, driving by Fiona's house. The driver said, "Want to stop." and he said "no".

(2,351 posts)I thought he got shot on the boat and died. Thanks for the update.
pengillian101
(2,351 posts)It was after the credits started to roll I think, that's why I missed it the first time I guess.
Oh good, he'll be back and I've missed his character.

(20,043 posts)I was so psyched when I saw that!!
And Frank--
Already can't wait for next season!
Laura PourMeADrink
(42,770 posts)kid he would be to be around. The antithesis of my spoiled nieces and nephews who never clean up the table after themselves and have their noses stuck in their I-phones and frazzle if their ride home from school is two minutes late.
Many would say "poor Carl". I say "what an extraordinary human education - the good, the bad, the ugly" the survivor-ship skills would be a priceless education to me.
