"Shameless" (Showtime TV show) is a drama series from John Wells "(ER," "The West Wing," "Southland)" and Paul Abbott ("State of Play," "Touching Evil") that is based on the long-running hit UK series and stars Emmy Award winner and Oscar nominee William H. Macy ("Fargo," "Pleasantville," "The Cooler)" and Emmy Rossum ("The Phantom of the Opera," "Mystic River").

Meet Frank Gallagher (Macy). Proud, working-class patriarch to a motley brood of six smart, spirited and independent kids who, without

him, would be…better off. In Frank's booze-addled view, parenting just eats into his hard-earned bar crawling and carousing time around Chicago, so it's better left to eldest daughter Fiona (Emmy Rossum) to hold down the fort. Bearing the de facto parent badge/burden, she's donned the proverbial apron and makes sure her younger siblings do their chores, keep a clean(ish) home and feed the kitty — the Gallagher family fund jar — because the gas bill is due and everyone (no matter how small) works to keep the lights on and food on the table. Brothers Lip (Jeremy Allen White), Ian (Cameron Monaghan) and Carl (Ethan Cutkosky) use their intellect to break every rule in the book to survive and make the bank, while younger sister Debbie (Emma Kenney) would sooner steal her share. Toddler Liam the youngest is just happy to be along for the ride. The Gallaghers are irreverent, endearing, resilient and they're absolutely, wildly and unapologetically "Shameless."

"Shameless" Season 3 is from Bonanza Productions Inc. in association with John Wells Productions and Warner Bros. Television. Wells and Abbott are executive producers; Andrew Stearn ("The West Wing," "Southland") is co-executive producer.
