Shameless. Netflix

Mentioned this one before, no takers. Very dark, sick humor(and for Americans, hence the spelling) burst out loud laughter, cannot quite believe what I am seeing. Warning, extreme graphic sexual material and f bombs galore(can see some trying to find the remote ) that somehow blends in with what's going on. Someone told me about this and had no idea what I was in for. Not for everyone, but would be interested to hear what others think about this. I think it's brilliant(but I'm a perv) not really But found it quite excruciatingly funny, as in, this really isn't happening, or perhaps I just need to get out more!

I need to give it another go probably; I think I watched it too soon off the back of the UK original

You're up late, unless overseas? I didn't even know there was a UK original?

Both... or I will be.. trying to watch the rugby from OZ

The only issue I had with the UK one at the time (nearly 20 years back, and on checking it went for 11 seasons) was it meant Paul Abbott wasn't going to write any more "State of Play" which I thought was utterly brilliant.

When the US one started it kept everyone's names which was just a bit weird given how recent the UK one was in my memory - I will give it a go again though as the cast includes some favourites
