Shameless season 11: Showtime will put premiere online for free

Shameless season 8

Waiting for the premiere of Shameless season 11 this weekend? Well, we’ve got some great news to share — you have an opportunity to check out the episode for free!

Starting this Sunday and until January 11, the first episode of the final season is going to be available across YouTube, Showtime’s official site, and other digital platforms. It’s a good way to get you hooked on the final season — or, if nothing else, a way for you to sample some of the show if you somehow haven’t seen it before. It’s an early Christmas gift! The final season is going to have a lot to say, especially as we wait to see if some members of the Gallagher family can actually obtain happiness. It’s not something that they’ve been altogether great at over the years.
