    This was the first season I don't think I'll watch. Last couple seasons have been extremely lackluster. The primary focus the last few seasons has been Ian and I really fucking hate that character. Lip being a drunken mess season after season gets super old. I'm glad Fiona doesn't find love again this season, but I really got sick of that too. Idk, maybe one day I'll return. I'm not in a hurry however.

    Understandable. Ian constantly seems to have the worst storylines nowadays. Lip, however is no longer a drunk this season, so that's good at least

    I dunno if anyone else still watches this show, but the mid-season finale aired recently and to my surprise it turned out to be Ian's last episode. I had no idea until now and I watched the ep days ago. It just seemed like another ep of Shameless to me, but I guess the actor is leaving. Apparently Fiona is leaving after this season as well. I don't really see the show going on for much longer without 2 key characters like that. Maybe one more season, but anything more seems unlikely, in my opinion.

    I actually like the idea of Ian leaving for a prison sentence. It adds a bit of reality to the situation.
    Fiona has been dead as a character for years now. Its the same story arc for her with slightly different details each time.
    The show should probably end soon anyway.

    I used to argue with people on IMDB about this show, They'd always cry about how its "poor shaming" and i guess from a certain point of view one could say this, but if they were going for realism it never painted these people as bad as they probably should have been. But whatever, let the show end.

    Yeah Ian and Fiona specifically have been doing a lot of back and forth as far as storylines go and it became clear ages ago that the writers didn't really know what else to do with the Ian character. The whole finding religion thing recently just seemed like a waste.

    Yah, Ian could definitely be an interesting character and story but apparently they had no idea what to do with him. Although i will say, him in prison is probably the most acceptable story arc.

    Fiona, i was dead on her like four seasons ago. This bitch just cant get her shit together. Its always the same story with her.... she attempts something, becomes successful, fucks up her relationship, takes two steps back and one step forward. Then the next season she'll take one step back and two forward and then vice versa.

    That's what I was expecting to see next, but nope, I guess that's it for him

    I guess his role is getting bigger in Gotham so he's moving on.

    So the season is over and Fiona is officially gone from the show. She got her 100k back, gave half to the family and got on a plane to who knows where. I'd imagine her character would probably come back for like a series finale, but aside from that she's done and it's for the best since (like I've stated in the past) the writers have clearly run out of ideas for her.

    Seems that Debbie will be the new Matriarch of the family, especially since she received half of the money. I'm mixed on her character since she can be annoying sometimes and okay in others. We'll see how the writers do her character next season.

    On another note, it looks like Ian isn't leaving the show afterall. It was originally reported that the actor was leaving the show, but apparently he cleared that up recently on social media and plans to return next season. I'm okay with that since he didn't get a proper sendoff anyway, had he not returned.

    Just finished the latest season, which was alright. I felt a bit fatigued about half way through the season since a lot of the character's storylines weren't very interesting to me, which makes sense since the writers have characters going back and forth and from one thing to the other in a matter of episodes. I think the worst storylines this season were Liam and Carl. Mainly because it was clear the writers didn't really know what to do with them this season and storylines are dropped or replaced like nothing. Ian and Mickey's storyline was the best, especially with the wedding in the finale.

    Next season will reportedly be the show's last, which is a good thing since it seems like there's not much else that can be done with these people.

    Well, the show is officially over. It was an alright final season and a decent finale, but nothing spectacular. Apparently Fiona was indeed supposed to return at some point this season, but covid prevented that coming to fruition. On that note, it was interesting to see them integrate covid into the storyline. While the show seemed to aim towards the family finally splitting and going their own ways, it actually finished a bit open ended with a lot of questions still looming, like if certain characters were able to sell their stuff and move, but I guess that was the showrunner's intention. Honestly the show stopped being good many seasons back, in fact, I kind of half-assed watch this last season, as I was just curious how things were going to end. Either way, I wouldn't be surprised if they did some kind of spinoff of sorts.

    Anyone else catch the finale? Even still watch the show at all?

    I stopped watching like 5 seasons ago. As someone who lives in Chicago, some of the writing was a bit cringey to me.
