Chicagoan Frank Gallagher is the proud single dad of six smart, industrious, independent kids, who without him would be... perhaps better off. When Frank's not at the bar spending what little money they have, he's passed out on the floor. But the kids have found ways to grow up in spite of him. They may not be like any family you know, but they make no apologies for being exactly who they are.

About Shameless
Meet Frank Gallagher, a charismatic yet hopelessly dysfunctional patriarch holding court in Chicago's South Side. He is the proud single dad of six fiercely independent kids who, frankly, might be better off without him. When Frank isn't propping up the local bar tab with their meager funds, he can usually be found passed out on the floor. Despite his utter lack of parental responsibility, the Gallagher children have learned to navigate life's challenges with resourcefulness and unwavering loyalty to each other. They are a far cry from the conventional family, and they make no apologies for it.
