*Frank:* a alcoholic mischievous father that doesn't care about his kids but rather cares about drugs and liquor. *Francis:* A loving father that would die for his kids and puts them infront of everything else. God I'm going to miss Francis.
I love how the youngest are shoved in the back and lip puts his arm out in front of Liam while fiona and Ian stand in front of Carl and Debbs. so cute.
Its called family and its the best thing ever and no matter how many bad things this family wemt through they are always there for each other and I love it
I think Frank loves his kids deep, deep, deep inside his heart...somewhere. But he can't sort out his priorities. And he is a drug addicted, selfish asshole. But I love his character as much as I hate him. Huge respect to the actor for playing such an complicated character, so amazing.
if you watched all of shameless youd know that frank was actually a really good kid who was in COLLEGE but then he met monica who got him addicted to drugs and alcohol sk basically if frank never met monica and still had kids he would deadass be a pretty good father
It's because Frank decided to reimage himself as Francis in this and previous episodes. He got a job, got Liam into private school, and became a doting father to Liam. Fiona refused to call him Francis until this moment, but it didn't last very long
When Fiona thanked Francis (Frank), and Frank smiled shyly and he put his hand on her shoulder a little bit (it warmed my heart and I almost cried). There's some pride in Frank's eyes. That, yes, my daughter has acknowledged me. God. All these seasons, it was the first I saw them have some physical contact. This show is perfect.
None of y'all mention how spectacular William H Macy is in creating a character who is really smart but too selfish to raise a family. Reminds me of the scene where he shit on the richies at the private school so bad that his reward was having his son go there. "Youre a good daddy".
8 yr old Liam went to a cemetery with his family to help dig up his dead Mother's grave to reclaim the thousands of dollars in stolen meth that was buried with her body. ...so, yea, memories
@@madisonfaulkner7988 yea i remember that plot twist but i was still weirded out like how could that happen hes extremely dark lol no racism but the contrast & comparison to liam & the gallaghers
I loved how Fiona stepped in front of all of them. I would do that for my brother and sisters. I also love frank in this season because he wants to be a father now.
Not really though.. like yeah he is a pretty asshole dad. But most of time when his children actually ask he does try to help. Like when Debbie wanted to leave the weird hippy camp or when she wanted Franks help. And he went to jail for Carl. But then again he also got Liam kidnapped so...
You know what. Francis and Frank are two different people. Frank is loud, irresponsible, and impossible to deal with. But Francis. He cares immensely. He is that part of himself from way back when the world was in color, and when family was everything
Who else hates how frank was finally becoming a productive human being and had a job, was being nicer to the kids, and was just being a good person but still they had to get him fired from his job and then everything went downhill and he went back to his old shity self it’s like COME ON CUT THE CRAP let him be a productive person FOR ONCE PRODUCERS 😐
@@juliane2595 I feel like even tho the show is called shameless they should’ve let the characters elevate they should’ve weirdly mixed Francis with Frank like still his funny party happy self but with the responsibility of Francis if that makes sense
He was a productive person for “once.” He actually got better and was doing good. Which is the case for alot of addicts. But unfortunately most people who struggle with substance abuse like frank can easily fall off and spiral downhill. Just when you think things are looking up one tiny thing can set you back into old habits. I feel like it makes the show more relatable especially to recovering addicts because addiction is a real disease.
I love how they were all trying to protect each other, especially how Liam was holding onto Debbie. She’s his big sister and she loves him no matter what. And I also love how Carl was trying to protect him as well. 🥰❤️
actually there are like 20 different episodes where hes either tryignt o be a great father just to be or when others ruin it for him to name 3 the apology episode where he was so sick he ended up in the hospital and he apologizes to a little girl who he thought was fiona.. and blames himself for everything he put her through bc he should have been a better father another episode where he decides to be sober for a month for money and ended up hanging out with Carl and Debbie and Liam and did all the fun shit with them... but... big but... the eldest kids thought it was a ploy til they realized it wasnt and he was there for like 3 weeks happy and treating the kids good... so they made him drink and he lost all the money and became a drunk again where he took the charge for Carl
I love how the three oldest protect the young ones. Just only one of the saddest moments in shameless. It's moments like these that make you feel so sad about how relatable the show shameless is. It's honestly a good show, I love all the actors especially Fiona. Sad she left in season 9!!
this is the best acting from william h. macy i've ever seen. the chilling calm in his voice, the crazy look in his eye, it's absolutely insane. it's so rare and refreshing to see frank so quick to defend his family. the francis arc is so amazing, and it's absolutely heartbreaking that it all comes to an end with the store closing down. i wish we could've seen more of this frank.
I just want to say, I love how Fiona walks slowly out, still looking the guy in the eyes, Fiona is a fictional character but ANYONE would prosper with such a persona of bravery and fierceness
I love how carl and debby get in front of liam ,ein and lip get infront of carl and debbie, and fiona is in the front. there all protecting each other!I love there sibling relatoinship and how fiona raised alll of them but there a age gap inbetween lip,ein and carl and debby so they helped raise the younger three to and i just UG love them so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!and frank this season is not a total asshole and at least hes trying for once.
Someone said William Macy could play joker and this scene by itself tells me he would be a dope older joker , this performance in this scene was just simply amazing
omg this always makes me cry we never see frank defend his family but when it matters he really shows he secretly cares but doesnt want to show it most the time
frank never gave two shits abt his kids! this was the ONLY scene in the entire series (except maybe a few with liam/carl) that he genuinely cared. that’s it. point blank period. frank is literally hilarious, but he is a horrible father, always was, never redeemed himself. stop feeling sorry for him, he doesn’t deserve it
not only are the oldest three protecting the youngest three, but the very oldest protects all of them, her body in front of the three in the back and arms in front of the two in the front -- she really is a mom
love how when he pulled out the gun fiona got in front of lip and ian, lip got in front of carl, ian in front of debbie, debbie in front of liam, an everyone in front of frank
I love how Fiona, Lip, and Ian immediately jump in front Debbie, Carl, and Liam. Three oldest protecting the three youngest.
NeverMindMyName now that’s a true family
Yes! And Debbie pushes Liam behind her= the middle kids stepping up to do their part protecting the youngest.
Why tf did they bring Liam
@@shiestygirl8999 because frank said he knew what to do with this guy
That's the way it Should be
Frank had some crazy in his eyes. Glad to see he was a father for once
True!!
cant wait for lip to turn like him :)
hes had his moments kinda lol.... he took the fall for Carl after that robbery
and he Let Lip pee on him after the Karen situation plus he did help Debbie train for the pool. but mostly he's been a shit father
Frank in his own way actually does really love his children. and does a lot to protect them. a lot of shameless fans just can't read between the lines
"Dead, rotting, beautiful, tortured, magnificent, ridiculous, worm-infested Monica..."
God, the writing in this show.
L Bartlett Franks lines are awsome!!!
Lmao
Yes writing but I’d just pass these off as franks infamous choice of words
Francis comes out like every 27 years
That one time he went to jail for Carl I was in shock
Like IT (Pennywise)

God I'm going to miss Francis.
Max Is Typing both of them care
thank you for noticing that Frank loves his children more than himself. I thought I was the only shameless fan to notice
Hey he's better than Terry let's just say that
I have a love/hate relationship with Frank
So who is Vernon?
loveharrydaily UK version. Can’t remember if vernon is his first name or middle name in the UK version but he used it for a bit
I love how the youngest are shoved in the back and lip puts his arm out in front of Liam while fiona and Ian stand in front of Carl and Debbs. so cute.
i noticed this too. aww
fizzypebbles89 friends come and go, but family is forever 😊
fizzypebbles89 Bro That's What Family Is For... To Protect..
Cute that's not cute thats family
Its called family and its the best thing ever and no matter how many bad things this family wemt through they are always there for each other and I love it

Celty /` facts
if you watched all of shameless youd know that frank was actually a really good kid who was in COLLEGE but then he met monica who got him addicted to drugs and alcohol sk basically if frank never met monica and still had kids he would deadass be a pretty good father
•.NOTCREAZ.• he’d be like Lip
Yep
@@NOTCREAZ If one person can change you like this... Sorry but no even when she not meet him he would still be a terrible person
Frank is weirdly cute in that oversize hoodie 😂
IKR
Deadass
Facts 😂😂
PLS I WAS HOPING IT WASNT JUST ME LMAOO
damn, frank steppin up at last
for now. ha haa
Go Francis 😉
True!
Only when it matters
1:00 Fiona pushed Lip and Ian back, They push Carl and Debbie back who then push LIam back. If that's not love then I don't know what is.💕
I’m surprised nobody mentioned that when Fiona thanks Frank, she calls him Francis instead. I thought that was interesting ...
maybe cause this new versoin of frank isnt the frank she had to deal with her whole life ?so she like sees him as a different person?
@Bader Bloushi yeah,the whole show should get a award idk why it hasn't yet
Pikachu Lover I think it's been nominated a bunch of times also it might have one once
It's because Frank decided to reimage himself as Francis in this and previous episodes. He got a job, got Liam into private school, and became a doting father to Liam.
Fiona refused to call him Francis until this moment, but it didn't last very long
Two different names frank is the drunk piece of shit but Francis is him being a real father its like 2 names for 2 personalities
When Fiona thanked Francis (Frank), and Frank smiled shyly and he put his hand on her shoulder a little bit (it warmed my heart and I almost cried). There's some pride in Frank's eyes.

when liam said that to him you could really see frank tearing up & feeling like a better dad for once
I just watched it
8 yr old Liam went to a cemetery with his family to help dig up his dead Mother's grave to reclaim the thousands of dollars in stolen meth that was buried with her body.
...so, yea, memories
Hey what do you do with your family Liam?
Dreaxil it’s shook me when it said Monica and frank were his biological parents... like is that even possible?
Madison Faulkner very extremely rare but it can happen surprisingly lmao
@@madisonfaulkner7988 Frank is 1/2 black.
@@madisonfaulkner7988 yea i remember that plot twist but i was still weirded out like how could that happen hes extremely dark lol no racism but the contrast & comparison to liam & the gallaghers

Love how the 3 oldest are in the front protecting the 3 youngest and even Dabbie and Carl hold on too Liam and put him behind them.
Where the hell has this father Frank been at their whole lives
auto mays True. But now I can't help wondering if it's too good to last
Well...He is now being the "old frank" again...
yeah, but not like former seasons. A better version.
Drunk out of his mind
Buried under a tone of liquor and coke
First time ever that frank actually cared about his family
Wolfie he went to jail for carl
Or when he was apologetic and sorry for Lip after Karen raped him
Not the first time, won't be the last.
Issuenoghost|| he also sent him to jail tho 😂😂
Not really though.. like yeah he is a pretty asshole dad. But most of time when his children actually ask he does try to help. Like when Debbie wanted to leave the weird hippy camp or when she wanted Franks help. And he went to jail for Carl. But then again he also got Liam kidnapped so...
The dude saw the crazed look in his eyes
I saw it myself lol
What I love the most about this show is it finds a way to bring out every single emotion a person could ever feel.
franks face when he says god is my witness
“Tense Rock music”😂😂😂

That's shameless. They don't fulfil our wishes and hopes. That's the whole reasons the gallaghers are gallaghers. But yeah, i hated it too
I blame the writers not the characters for the things that made me give up on this show.
@@juliane2595 I feel like even tho the show is called shameless they should’ve let the characters elevate they should’ve weirdly mixed Francis with Frank like still his funny party happy self but with the responsibility of Francis if that makes sense
You clearly did not have an alcoholic father. My father was literally Frank. And he never succeeded. He wasn’t capable.
He was a productive person for “once.” He actually got better and was doing good. Which is the case for alot of addicts. But unfortunately most people who struggle with substance abuse like frank can easily fall off and spiral downhill. Just when you think things are looking up one tiny thing can set you back into old habits. I feel like it makes the show more relatable especially to recovering addicts because addiction is a real disease.
I just like the way Ian shields Debbie and then she shields Liam so cute
they all look so suprised he defended them.even though he totally failed on all parts of being a father at least he still somewhat cares.
I love how they were all trying to protect each other, especially how Liam was holding onto Debbie. She’s his big sister and she loves him no matter what. And I also love how Carl was trying to protect him as well. 🥰❤️
The way Ian, Fiona and Lip protected Debs, Carl and Liam ugh 😭😭💕
Frank finest moment as a father.
When I saw this scene I got the major goosebumps like ok frank we see you
The only time I applauded Frank ever
Why is noone talking about that super badass slowmo walk?!
Oooooooo frank looked all kinds of crazy here 😂😂😂
2:42 i love that grip on carl. the way the older three protect the younger three it's so sweet.
I love the way they stick together,this is what family do
Hate to disagree with you. Not all families are that way. Mine isn't that way.
Frank looked crazy in the eyes! One of my favourite Frank scenes since the early seasons 👏
Frank hit him with the crazy eyes from the new guy 😂
its about damn time frank be a fathers, wow omg i was left speechless
actually there are like 20 different episodes where hes either tryignt o be a great father just to be or when others ruin it for him to name 3
the apology episode where he was so sick he ended up in the hospital and he apologizes to a little girl who he thought was fiona.. and blames himself for everything he put her through bc he should have been a better father
another episode where he decides to be sober for a month for money and ended up hanging out with Carl and Debbie and Liam and did all the fun shit with them... but... big but... the eldest kids thought it was a ploy til they realized it wasnt and he was there for like 3 weeks happy and treating the kids good... so they made him drink and he lost all the money and became a drunk again
where he took the charge for Carl
@@shiestyrecords3225 great father??? Lmao your standards are too low
Frank had me scared for a second there
Dude has the gun. Yet he listens to frank 😂
I love how frank stood up for his kids
William H Macy is an amazing actor
The soundtrack for this show is always completely on point
0:58 it was cute how the big'guns got in front of the slightly less bug'guns awww #familygoals
I think that is the SINGLE MOST impressive scene of the whole show!
One of the best scenes from this season hands down
what episode and season
I love how the three oldest protect the young ones. Just only one of the saddest moments in shameless. It's moments like these that make you feel so sad about how relatable the show shameless is. It's honestly a good show, I love all the actors especially Fiona. Sad she left in season 9!!
My god this is the greatest performance of Macy’s career - bar none
I know im late but I agree
he did great when the cops came looking for Ian to
Yeah Bee And took the rap for Carl robbing his former foster parents
this is the best acting from william h. macy i've ever seen. the chilling calm in his voice, the crazy look in his eye, it's absolutely insane. it's so rare and refreshing to see frank so quick to defend his family. the francis arc is so amazing, and it's absolutely heartbreaking that it all comes to an end with the store closing down. i wish we could've seen more of this frank.
I love how Fiona was the last one to leave and made sure all of her younger siblings made it out of there first.
Frank's crazy eye oml
Family, that’s all they’ve got
Frank can always surprise people，especially in thesituation when no one can do anything. He is the soul of the story.
Agreed
The acting in this show is absolutely insane
Frank - crazy man neglects his family
Francis - crazy man protects his family
I just want to say, I love how Fiona walks slowly out, still looking the guy in the eyes, Fiona is a fictional character but ANYONE would prosper with such a persona of bravery and fierceness

Frank already knew what to do. He went in in the back and got ready
Someone said William Macy could play joker and this scene by itself tells me he would be a dope older joker , this performance in this scene was just simply amazing
Frank proving though he is messed up, he is still the Alpha Lion of the pride
omg this always makes me cry we never see frank defend his family but when it matters he really shows he secretly cares but doesnt want to show it most the time
when it really comes down to it, Francis doesn’t fuck around.
One of the few times I like him
"We buried some drugs with her, but that's neither here nor there." -Frank xD fucking lovehate him
Eric tried to be intimidating or tried to point the gun again but nothing can intimidate this family for what they live every single day
even when they leave the older three are still in a protective stance around the younger 3
2;40 awe brother momment when lip grabs carls shirt to see if hes ok
You all have to realize franks always cared he’s just showing it more here
frank never gave two shits abt his kids! this was the ONLY scene in the entire series (except maybe a few with liam/carl) that he genuinely cared. that’s it. point blank period. frank is literally hilarious, but he is a horrible father, always was, never redeemed himself. stop feeling sorry for him, he doesn’t deserve it
I like how frank threatened the man with the gun.
Please the walk was so iconic ❤️💪
Deb was clutching Liam tight, so cute
He stood up for his kids more in that moment than he probably did his entire life.
You can tell deep down Frank actually loves his children
not only are the oldest three protecting the youngest three, but the very oldest protects all of them, her body in front of the three in the back and arms in front of the two in the front -- she really is a mom
Fionas nod and Frank’s smile is the best part
I think he needed a favor from them cuz there's NO way he would have done this if there's nothing in it for himself
catia miles He's a changed man, I dunno if it's going to last but, I kinda like new Frank, I mean Francis..
I don't think it would last. SPOILER:SPOILER:SPOILER
He tries to scam people again near the end of the eight season. So...
Fernando Trelles :,v he was literally in a meth psychosis lmfao the dude smoked a half pound of meth. He’s back to Frank now
Fernando Trelles :,v the meth made him Francis
Frank maybe a dead beat father and a alcoholic. But he finally stood up to his Gallagher family❤ that he truly care about
Frank had such a character arc this season
The walking part was so badass
Their Gallagher’s, all of them are some badass nuts ! 🔥❤️
I love how Fiona spread herself out to cover everyone. Her arms went over Ian and Lip to cover her entire family
Francis may very well be the best character in the entire show tbh
(tense rock music) hahaha subtitles guy deserves a medal
Daddy to the rescue.
Frank showed his love and its awesome
One of the few times acted like a father, even though this situation was his fault.
frank may have ultimately stopped it but Debbie is protecting Liam Ian is protecting Debbie and Liam Lip is in front of Carl and Fiona is in the front
0:10 Ethan couldn’t help but look at the camera😭😭
his eyes were a little creepy here but they really did show that he actually cared for his kids & actually meant it when he defended them lol
Another of my favorite episode❤️❤️ love this show, and the fact Frank got his kids back on this for once
2:01 Those are some intense crazy eyes 😂
I feel like Frank cares but only to the extent he knows how to care considering how he grew up and how much he cares more about himself
Idk why but frank had his own gangster type of vibe even with a ridiculously large hoodie on😭😭💯
Frank said the same thing and acted just like Fiona in episode 3 of that season I love it
At the end of the day, Frank had only his kids to carry on the Gallagher legacy. It’s only instrinct/natural to protect your spawn in the long run ✌️
Frank has always been a terrible father, but when he actually tries to make an effort and wants to be there for his family, he does a great job.
love how when he pulled out the gun fiona got in front of lip and ian, lip got in front of carl, ian in front of debbie, debbie in front of liam, an everyone in front of frank
We know
End song is "Twin Channel"-modern merchant
Ian looks like he’s from GTA 😂😂
