Season two picked up right where season one left off! I loved getting to follow the Galagers through a crazy Summer following season 1's crazy winter! They are the realist family on TV! They are filled with fun entertaining laughs, storytelling and realism! I love, love love this show!
This review is from Shameless: The Complete Second Season [3 Discs]

This is a terrific series. I grew up with a couple alcoholic parents that delved into some mild drugging and I see a great deal of my childhood as well as my own adult life in so much of Shameless. I'm not saying my family's lives were as hilariously funny as Frank's whole crew but I'm sure they could get some good material from me. I'd feared this series would be taken as too farcical and dispensed with after the first season. Usually when I like a series really well it disappears. William Macy has done a terrific job of depicting a deplorable, filthy, alcoholic with absolutely no morals. My hat is off to the rest of the cast. It is impressive the child actors can bring across such convincing roles portraying the lives of a dysfunctional family so well. I just love this season; even better than the first!

Macy, Rossum, everybody performs as if they know they're in something special. Well, they are. Shameless is Showtime's most consistent drama and with the introductory phase taken care of in S1, the stories are deeper and more intriguing in the second year. Transfer is good, but the show alone, especially at a good low price, is absolutely worth your attention and a small portion of your income. Shameless may be one of the most overlooked long running shows of the century.
