we came across it just a few weeks ago and missed the first two or three episodes so i am still confused as shit about william h macy's new wife and that whole situation, if anyone has caught this show and knows what up please fill me in.
Frank Gallagher is full of Irish love and pride for his large brood, but that's about it. He's usually partying or passed out drunk, mom is AWOL, and the kids are basically raising themselves. When we first meet the Gallaghers of working-class Chicago, the three oldest kids are all hot and bothered, in one form or another. Fiona is being pursued by Steve, a rich player with a flashy car and a loose credit card. Lip is tutoring neighbor Karen, who repays him in kind. And Ian is grappling with homosexuality, and being grappled by a co-worker. Meanwhile, the electric bill is due, there's no money, and someone has to look after baby Liam... It's one day at a time for this crazy dysfunctional family, but their mutual love and support for each other always see them through.
