Shame Shame

I'm addicted to Shameless the TV series -british of course- I am ashamed to say. My favorite character these days is Shane Maguire but it's not hard to guess the real reason I started watching it was James McAvoy yum! He's since moved on with his slag girlfriend Fiona (Anne-Marie Duff) but the Maguires seemed to have held down the fort ok. Which is exactly as it would be being a crime family that oppresses the neighborhood with a Stockholm syndrome affection.
James, I am just kidding about the slag thing James. I respect anyone you're with. I love you that much. Not in a sick, stalking, murderous fan kind of way but in a serious if Anne-Marie decides she's had enough I'd like the sloppy seconds thank you... because to me they're never sloppy James. Alright I'll stop now...
Anyway, so shameless...where were we? Righto. So sometimes I find it hard to follow the fast talking Chatsworthians. Sentences are manchester street slang packed but occasionally I learn a new derogatory word or phrase to add to my useless insult dictionary and a little about street culture and stereotypes UK style. Season 8 is really showing that the makers have lost a bit of their purpose but you still get a glimpse into the various lifestyles. The show usually leaves one thinking about the real scenarios and the impact such lifestyles have on real people. How could a neighborhood function with so much crime that doesn't show itself often in the show but it's there like a reminder that yes people do get killed here. Just not the main characters unless of course they have to move on from the show. Like Mandy Maguire who's character was lacking spunk for a while. Then her boyfriend who had an affair with Karen and added a little interest to the show as a one man match for the mob family Maguire. I have yet to summarize the show with my socioeconomic analysis tendencies but stay tuned.
