"in my whole career i have never seen such a spectacular display of alcoholism"
Frank: Thank you
“I’m gonna enjoy this while it lasts” the kids loved their dad but Frank couldn’t be sober, not even for them :(
Its a shame Frank wanted to be sober for the money and not the happiness of his kids
Because money buys happiness, kids are nothing but setback to what you wanna do.
@@andrediaz2748 woww someone's parents didn't love them...
@@andrediaz2748not true
@@jinxx9503He’s not wrong. To some people, money matters more than anything
pretty shameless
This show really makes you feel bad for the kids sometimes. They don't realize their dad cares more about drugs and alcohol than he cares about his kids. Lip and Fiona are old enough to remember the last time he tried to quit drinking. If they let it go on too long, Carl and Debbie would have started to trust Frank, which would just make it so much worse when he betrays them again.
I mean, I’m pretty sure that they are aware of that fact. They all called him out multiple times, kicked him out, even threw him in a dumpster LOL🤣
In my opinion, it’s the fact that the kids are aware of the fact that Frank cares more about drugs and alcohol, than them. As well, them knowing that there’s nothing that they can do to make him feel any differently.
It's a very real super honest description of families that have alcoholic fathers and it's not all bad it's only bad when it's really bad... but it's real
Excluding the drinking and smoking my dad was like Frank
Q++++q++++++a
Although Frank wanted to remain sober Just for the money it was great to see him behave like a dad to his kids.
Ye but kudos to Lip for being the only one to tell the younger ones how it actually is
sober frank is a frank we needed in shameless ☹
Screw that , the horrible drunk frank is more entertaining
@@user-ee6vi8dv7b true but it was still nice seeing him be a decent dad for an episode
@@lel9158 fair
Lip and Karen being together and happy feels so nostalgic.
That's not how alcohol withdrawal works, he would be having seizures and could die. Alcohol withdrawal is the worst withdrawal you can have.
Frank is basically a supernatural being
Not everyone gets physical withdrawal to the extreme
@@ramkedoodle if your that bad. Yes you do.
@@Nick-io2iv not all the time, a lot of the time yes but not all of the time
Frank has a second immunity system for alcohol
Carl and Debbie are cute when they were a kid
I'm having mixed feelings about this, on one hand i can completely understand lip and fiona wanting to protect their siblings from the painful disappointment of their dad's reversal back to old bad habits and while i have hilarious respect for them in their loving attempts to do so i just can't help but feel curiosity on what if instead of putting such efforts into sabotaging him they actually take the initiative to really help frank become the father they longed for him to be; not only by actually making sure he used that $3k for the family but by showing him the possibility of great things he could achieve from staying the course, he clearly has the potential, all he needed was the people in his life, his own family to keep him moving forward, they knew how jacked up his own life was with his mother, how his heart was shattered by their mother leaving him, those things alone should have been enough to convince the older siblings Lip and fiona to not be so quick to give up on him, I'm pretty certain if all 11 seasons was dedicated to them doing that with him and him actually putting effort into that with hilarious mishaps resulting along the way, the story of their lives and what each one of them went through, how each one of them was affected and changed for the better by Frank's redemption arc would have been drastically different and possibly the ending for frank would have been a lot better than what he got, It would have still been bittersweet, but it would have been a great send-off to yet another beloved character, seeing that character develop and become the imperfect but still funny as hell, good and decent guy we all wished for and knew he could be. 😁😎😉💯🔥👍🏻
That's what I thought
Exactly
Your idea hinges on Frank’s own want to change, he doesn’t.
4:38 Frank is back !!!!
I feel really bad for lip in this episode because I can relate.
seeing ethel again makes me so sad man 😢
i miss the young debbie♥
Wait, I forget, do we ever find out what happens to the foster girl after running away?
No we don’t, I’m afraid
Frank in some ways reminds me of my birth Mom. She was an alcoholic and a drug addict. She never loved me or my sister enough to get sober but I bet she would have done it for the money!
Cuz there's a difference between getting sober and getting sober temporarily she would have done it temporarily for the money sure but not permanently so I get it
Enjoy good thing while it last because it'll help us get through life
My dad was like that. Hid in a bottle while his second wife targeted me for abuse... what made him stop drinking? My son being born. I have a brother, he's the definition of a POS, so it's not a gender thing.
Long story short, he stopped drinking and doing blow so I'd allow him to have a relationship with his grandson. The upside is my son gets to have what me and my husband didn't.
Frank actually can be a good dad
I can’t imagine getting vodka in my ear.
Would pay to see an alternate version where they didn’t force him to drink
he would have stayed sober until the end of the experiment and then gone on a MASSIVE bender of drugs and alcohol
He could just do a shit load of drugs untill he could drink again
$5K US (I’m 🇨🇦) and we’re golden.
I loved Ethel. Very cute
Why did they want Frank to be an alcoholic again?
They probably wanted to study his brain, “the most advanced case of alcholism they have ever seen” after he abstains for the time period. Probably to see what happens, if he’s dieing, how, if they can give him any drugs to make it better, give him anything that will make him not get sick, etc
@@pridetheprince4188I think they’re asking why the other Gallaghers wanted Frank to be an alcoholic.
@BL4CK-L1ST they rather want to it to end expectedly, than to have their heart broken unexpectedly
They wanted to get it over with, they knew he would go back to being his old self as soon as he got the money/could drink again.
They wanted him to drink alcohol again because Debbie and Carl was going to start trusting him and all frank was going to do is get back drunk after he got the money and it would of hurt Debbie and Carl because they trusted him basically saying frank cared about drugs and alcohol more than his kids
I wish Ethel had made a appearance later on in the show
Debbie is so smart here but it is unnatural for a child and sadly it don't work like that a alcoholic in Frank's lege will feel so bad when he sober that he will be worse the first weeks.
No😂
Why did they do that?
Because even Frank was planning on using all that money he was going to earn on more alcohol and drugs. He planned to stop drinking for 2 weeks just to get money, after that, he can spend it on whatever he wants; take a guess what he was planning on buying with that money. He only spent time with them just to get distracted to do something in the meantime because he had nothing else to do. Since he couldn't drink, he started craving sweets as his alternative until he could drink after 2 weeks. In season 3 episode 12, Frank was in a hospital bed under care after he started coughing blood. Fiona told Frank to change for himself and for the kids because he has a family that still cares about him. In his own words he said, "What if I don't want to change?" with a very selfish tone. He chose alcohol over his kids years ago all the way to his grave.
What lip did to those kids is awful. And they wonder why Debbie did anything to feel love
Nah he did them a favor, Frank would eventually break their hearts… again
@@bastibagui2553 not lips decision to make. Who would actually know if Frank could make it sober a while. Remember Lip hating on Fiona for drinking in her own home when a sober friend of Ian's came over and Lip blamed Fiona for his friends choice to drink? Lip was the absolute worst character on the show
@@OddbisketLip has already been through this. He mentioned it in the episode. Frank probably has done this thousands of times. Lip knows how heartbreaking it can be and wants to protect Debbie and Carl from feeling that as well.
@@TY_007 lip did it because he was bitter. He justified a lot of his BS behaviour saying he was protecting someone. Mostly he was self serving. He didn't like Frank ever being good to his younger siblings. It was pure spite.
Even when he got sober he would help people on his bosses time and get a big ego out of it.
@@Oddbisketthe point of the show is that the characters and good and bad people. Fiona almost killed Liam, Frank broke Ian's nose, Debbie was a kinda messed up ma, all the crazy shit Carl's did
Damn fam didnt even bother to have for him a chaser ready thats rough. But was he back to normal & they partied after?🤪🥴
I’m sorry but the UK shameless is a lot more funny, hard hitting and in your face. This is a bit to softy approach to shameless.
Yup that's 🇺🇸
Sod off. Go watch that dreadful UK version then!
Damn i love season 1 ❤
