The end of the season showed her wanting a baby so she could stay in her boyfriend's life forever, without even considering what he thought of all this. With so many characters maturing, there's one who is trying too hard to mature too fast and that's Debbie (Emma Kenney). But we also want to make sure his shift isn't something that just disappears from the landscape." "It's hard to say yet if he'll use it as an example to others on how he's opened up, or if he's actually at a point where he can change any of his behaviors.
"You hope so, but he's such a narcissist because he's such an addict, and he's so focused on his own stuff," Wells said of his return to the family. But will he be a changed man for good? Probably not. But with Bianca passing away from her illness in the finale, that can only mean one thing: Frank is returning to South Side. With his younger lover, Bianca (Bojana Novakovic), bringing out the best in him, we couldn't help but wonder if there was a good guy underneath the rough surface. Macy) is typically useless, and quite possibly the worst father in the world, we got to see a different side of him in season 5. The season premiere's storyline will take a time jump, leaving it to be a few months after the events of the finale, according to International Business Times. Could the time jump leave Carl done serving his time? The answer is unclear, but we're excited to see how his time behind bars may have changed him (even though, knowing Carl, it probably just made him worse).Īnother person Carl unfortunately takes after: the one and only Frank Gallagher.Įven though Frank (William H. Someone who seems to be following in Mickey's law-breaking footsteps is the younger Gallagher, Carl (Ethan Cutkosky), who is now in juvie. "It's that thing that often happens when you're younger: you have a relationship that's really difficult and passionate and messy, and then you go away from it and you discover the rest of the world, and sometimes you come back to that first person anyway."
"It also may be an interesting time for Ian to discover how important Mickey was in his life," Wells said on their breakup. Apparently, Mickey goes to prison for attempted murder, so it "will be hard to keep him heavily involved." As sad as this may be for viewers, Ian has bigger things to deal with, and Mickey's absence will force him to "find some stability in his life." Monaghan has sadly confirmed to TVLine that Mickey will be "noticeably absent in the upcoming installment," leaving us all in tears, according to International Business Times. With Ian's bipolar disorder taking over his life-and even going as far as kidnapping Svetlana's ( Isidora Goreshter) baby at one point-and Mickey only wanting what's best for him, the finale ended with bad boy Mickey in tears. He's pointing out the things she does have real world consequences on the people around her now."Īs for Jimmy/Steve's return, all Wells has to say was, "We never want to say never."Īs if Fiona's relationships aren't hard enough to keep up with, we couldn't all help but be absolutely heartbroken when Ian (Cameron Monaghan) and Mickey (Noel Fisher), who we've grown to love beyond control, ended things in the finale. We care deeply about her as a character, so we really want to watch her make that transition into maturity, which is a lot of what Dermot has been doing on the show. "She presents herself as a woman, and so we have to start addressing that. "We've watched her grow up a bit, and she's a woman now," Wells told The Hollywood Reporter about Fiona's maturity. With executive producer John Wells confirming that Sean will be back this season, and Jimmy/Steve's future unknown, could it be Sean that she's finally choosing? Just as we watched Jimmy/Steve (Justin Chatwin), or whatever his name really may be, possibly leave the show for good, we can't help but wonder if he'll be back once again. Fiona (Emmy Rossum) was left wondering whether she wanted to be with her husband Gus (Steve Kazee) or her on-and-off again fling Sean (Dermot Mulroney). With season 5 ending with a ton of cliffhangers, as the finale always does, we can't help but wonder what could possibly be in store for them now. You haven't seen crazy until you watch this show.and you'll be instantly hooked as they bring true meaning to the phrase, "No Shame." Everyone their own family is pretty much as crazy as it gets, until they really see the Gallaghers in action. Between arrests, broken relationships, a drunken father, plenty of illegal activities, and more "oh my god" moments than you can count, " Shameless" never fails to make us cringe, laugh and cry in every single episode.
For five seasons now, we've somehow grown to love the crazy family that is the Gallaghers.
