Shameless season 10 video: The cast has fun — and reflects

Shameless

Shameless season 10 is set to arrive on Showtime next month, and judging from early teases we’ve seen, there’s a lot of gas left in the tank.

What’s so appealing about where this show is right now? To us, it’s this idea of progression, and seeing where some of these cast members are now as opposed to where they were in the beginning. There are more adults than there once were, especially now that Carl, Debbie, Ian, and Lip are now at the point in their lives where they can fully make their own decisions. That doesn’t mean that they are going to make good decisions (remember, Ian is in prison), but they are decisions nonetheless. Fiona already made the decision to actively get up and leave, and as crummy as that may be, it does open the door somewhat for a lot of the other characters to shine.

If you missed our take on the end of Shameless season 9, be sure to check out our video discussion below! After you do that, remember to subscribe to CarterMatt on YouTube and then also view our Shameless playlist. There are more updates coming when the new season arrives!

The new video below courtesy of Showtime doesn’t necessarily offer up too much in the way of plot spoilers, but it does give you a behind-the-scenes look at the boxing/wrestling-themed photo shoot that the cast did prior to the season. It also features the cast talking about the bonds that they’ve formed — especially for some of the actors who started out as kids. Take, for example, someone like Emma Kenney — she was nine when she first started out on Shameless, and more than half of her life has been doing this show.

We’re expecting a batch of episodes coming up that is as funny and/or crazy as ever … but even still, wouldn’t it benefit this show to be able to show some of these characters making a few good decisions? That’s always going to be the struggle here in that you want to watch people be dysfunctional, but you also have to feel like the story is going somewhere.
