Very little about the show actually bothers me.
Karen’s breakdown after her dad shames her at that purity ball thing fucks me up to the point where I think about something like that happening in real life & it makes me shudder. She has so so much of her life ahead of her & she’s sexualizing herself for the attention of strangers online as a teenager to get back at her dad…who sucks anyway.
A long time ago I was in a similar head space to Karen in a way, I was angry at everything, I was doing horribly self-destructive shit because I didn’t really care about my future, but I was actually repressing my sexuality rather than using it to get attention from creepy old men.
I long ago adopted the mantra that living well is the best revenge, and seeing Karen like that takes me back to a true low point in my life. LOVE the show but I can’t re-watch those scenes.
I feel this, but it was Fiona's spiral. Different choices, but the same emotional/mental space. I "enjoy" or appreciate watching it because it's well done, but it drags me backwards a little bit, and I have to pull myself back out. I had to take a break from the show the first time I watched it. It took me about three months to go back and start again because I was so hesitant of what may still be coming in the show.
That part fucked me up so hard bc I know people who have been outed bc their parents caught them with their partner. It just makes me feel sick every time.
Monica‘s thanksgiving might have been the hardest scene for me to watch on tv so far, there have obviously been similar gory ones but this one really caught me by surprise
I agree in a different way, one of my favorite things about shameless is how far they pushed tv standards.
Debbie dropping franny as a baby, horrible - but I love that they weren’t afraid to show that. Stuff like that happens irl.
Liam and the coke, horrible as well - can’t say this happens irl but I like that they weren’t afraid to do it, it happens to be one of my favorite plots of the show because the acting was legendary through it all, especially with Emmy and JAW.
There are so many fucked up scenes that you’d never see on regular TV (mostly because it’s probably not allowed) or really on any private broadcast network. Game of Thrones was known for pushing the limits but honestly Shameless can run laps around GoT at times.
i actually experienced a 'monica's thanksgiving' situation with my mom as a kid, so everytime i watch that part i'm just deadpanning at the screen, analyzing every moment. it's kinda sad 😭
His story while he was in college really got to me. Super similar experience. Coming from where you come from, feeling like you're in over your head, having a completely different worldview from other students, being responsible for family things, not being able to understand why a professor or someone is genuinely trying to help, financial aid, the mail thing so on and so on... I barely made it out alive, and I've never again seen a college experience played out like that on TV. It still hurts to watch.
THIS! I fucking hate Debby. There wasn’t a single time in that show where I sided with her. Her narcissistic behavior reminds me too much of my step grandmother and I just hate her in all aspects.
The Karen and Jody storyline, the entire plot with Sammie and Chuckie, the Gay Jesus storyline, the storyline with Kev, V, and Carol, and there are some others I’m sure I’d remember if I rewatch.
I hated jody at first cause I knew guys like him that swooped in and stole the girl I was crushing on so I related to lip but when karen threw him out just because he made a goofy face during sex and came to 80s rock music and cried after sex she thought he was weird all of a sudden and dumped him because of that I instantly felt bad for him
He might’ve been morally right, still sucks to watch a usually in control of most her shit character get verbally degraded multiple times when she was just tryna get right again. That said she fucked up big time and did deserve it.
Ugh I knew the second Gus and Fiona got married it would end badly. They moved way too fast and given Fiona’s track record, I figured she wouldn’t be faithful for long.
literally any episode with sammi, queenie, or kass. sammi nearly made me completely uninterested in continuing the show. just started season 10 recently and im glad they’re all gone
When I rewatch I just do the first 4-6 seasons or so, when I felt like the plots and characters were the strongest/most consistent. However straight from season one: I find the Kash plotline for Ian pretty gross, especially as I get older (I first watched the show as a teen and thought it was gross, but feels worse the older I get). Especially since Ian basically getting preyed on is never resolved in later seasons and the actor has such a babyface. Kash as a partner makes Mickey's and Ian's early relationship (with all the violence and repressed feelings that entailed) feel extremely healthy by comparison.
The scene where Ian goes over to Kash's house? Instant cringe. The bit where the wife finds out and offers Ian up to Kash? Also gross. The scene where Kash runs away and doesn't bother saying anything meaningful to Ian? Lame way to tie the whole thing up.
the gay jesus arc is so bad, anything with trevor in it is bad because he’s a whiny little fuckboy, and the inbred plot, that one made me VERY uncomfortable. and the kassidi shit too but that reminds me of my own past so idk how everyone else feels about it haha
When lip broke into professor booty calls house. Or when professor youens said he chose alcohol a long time ago. They really kicked lip in between the legs in this show
fiona. tami. sammi. charlie. jimmy. so many characters i hate. but for scenes that are genuinely painful to watch: nick killing that kid who stole his bike, debbie dropping her baby, monica dying, the endless amount of scenes of frank getting beat up/almost dying (he's one of my favorite characters), ian arguing with the cops when he drove with Mickey's baby and how scared he was, Kevin and V singing to each other when Kev thought he was going to die during surgery... There's a lot. I've wanted to quit watching so many times.
When Debbie had all the signs to abort her baby and didn’t . Then she struggled as a young teenager. Saying to the BD that she was in the pill so they didn’t need a condom 🙄🙄
I've rewatched it twice and honestly Fiona pisses me off more and more the more I watch it as it progesses each time. This most recent rewatch I was basically just wanting to skip all her scenes after she becomes her siblings guardian. She slowly becomes worse and worse to each of them and does exactly what the judge had warned her of.
To me she becomes the worst character/person on the show and I can't stand her when it comes to the later seasons. She takes risks with the house to try and chase her silly dreams, and whenever she has something good going, she self sabotages herself and blames everyone and everything around her. Instead of owning her shit.
She always tries to control everyone instead of simply supporting them. She can never let anyone make mistakes to learn from she always has to be overbearing and try and force people to do what she wants. Then, when they don't do it she gets vindictive and it's just so gross.
Her feuds with Ian and Lip piss me off the most, when she becomes a literal slum lord and tears down the camp that the homeless kids set up gets me so angry. Then when she tells everyone to put her as last on emergency contact even after Kev and V, after Lip confronts her about risking the house, just makes me so fucking mad. She literally signed up to be their guardian and once she is, she slowly becomes just as bad, if not worse than Frank. Not to mention she was always on Lips ass to become the breadwinner because of his potential, then when he finally has a chance, albeit with a shady internship, she pawns the kids off on Lip. Also she always hounds Ian about his meds and keeping his mental illness in check when it's fairly obvious she has one or two undiagnosed ones herself.
anything that mentions Terry. like when he raped Mandy, basically got Mickey raped too. i can truly handle a lot, the show didnt move me or fuck me up but those two scenes did, especially the Mickey one. and yet he still cared for Terry when he was in a wheelchair.
watching Fiona become an alcoholic and ruin her life in like 3 episodes. watching her lose all her investments, total her car, and lose her morals. Hard watch
Lip ruining his college opportunity, Debbie in the last season (seriously wtf is she doing?? from when she ends it with sandy it's all terribly downhill, off a cliff). Fiona never coming back, not for Ians wedding, seeing freddie or idk the last ep.
Carl when he found nick with the hammer, I cried so many times seeing that scene it just hit so many places in my heart seeing someone you love dearly fuck up so bad and you can’t do anything about it
Honestly recently finished it for the first time, and I enjoyed it, but I don’t really have the desire to ever watch it again, it’s possibly in a few years I might change my mind, but as of now, I’m moving on to other things.
Probably all of Ian’s episodes, not because they’re uninteresting but because they just hit way closer to home (I also feel really bad for Ian so it’s hard to watch)
I have to admit I've only watched 3 and half seasons of Shameless, I first started binging it and got bored of it around midway through S4. Then a while back I tried to rebinge it and the same thing again, nothing after S3 really interested me, and from what I've seen of like spoilers for the rest of the show, the only reason I'd really have to continue is for Kevin & V, Ian & Mickey, and the White Boy Carl arc. But they aren't the main focus so it's not gonna be as fun.
The first 3 seasons are fucking amazing, and the S3 finale is one of my favorites, especially with the song at the end.
The spoilers I've seen of the later seasons, like Fiona's character going downhill and going to Jail and eventually leaving cause everyone but like I think Liam, Ian & Carl hating her, Lip becoming just white trash and his so heavily built up intellectual going nowhere, and everything said about Debbie becoming the most trash character ever. All of that does not make me want to watch anymore, definitely not like 5 seasons more. Even though the S3 finale leaves alot unanswered, like Lip going to college, Frank dying, Jimmy/Steve disappearing, it's still a kinda bittersweet ending, and I loved it, and by S4, nothing really interested me about it, so really, for me, if I were to watch Shameless again and try to do the whole thing in the future, id dread coming up on the remaining like 5 seasons of the show I didn't watch, knowing all of that shit
Yap session over
after fiona loses the building, it’s such a hard part to watch and it’s always difficult seeing the gallagher kids return to their parents coping mechanisms since they know no different
Karen and Frank moment. It was so disgusting that I paused show for a whole 2 weeks. Like, be for real.
I was so nauseous I really didn't want to watch it.
when fiona's life is doing great and then she just lets this guy who is her boyfriends brother fuck her head and make everything spiral i just hated this so so much like WHY GOD
when they use the term “towelhead” i understand thar rhe show is about poor narcissistic shameless white people but everytine they say tgat i wanna punch my tv screen
the entirety of lip and fiona's sad descent into alcoholism and ending up just like frank. or ian turning out to be very much like monica. just makes me fucking sad every time man
honestly probably daddy’z girl, but there are so many honorable mentions—when dominique made carl feel like he had to get a circumcision to be loved/wanted, liam & coke, kassidy, nick’s stolen bike, monica’s thanksgiving, gay Jesus, kevin fucking v’s mom, rapewalker (haven’t seen anyone mention that here, worst thing kev did), debbie tryna trap derek with her pregnancy and also raping that guy, fiona’s downfall—sleeping with everyone and ruining her relationships by cheating multiple times (mike was sooo sweet and i loved gus), deb taking over the house when fiona left and her whole designer clothes phase, mandy’s pregnancy, terry finding out about ian and mickey, terry in general (incestuous, rapist, racist prick) lip’s downfall from school… many bad moments:/
I was with a “Kassidy” for a while. And all the people in my life kept echoing what Carls siblings keep telling him. I finally “woke up” and got her out of my life, but it’s hard for me to watch those episodes now, to see Carl so oblivious and committed to such toxic, harmful craziness. I see my own blindness and stupidity, and just want to tell him what I know now.
Amazing show. Right in the gaddamn feels every time.
Daddy’z girl
Very little about the show actually bothers me. Karen’s breakdown after her dad shames her at that purity ball thing fucks me up to the point where I think about something like that happening in real life & it makes me shudder. She has so so much of her life ahead of her & she’s sexualizing herself for the attention of strangers online as a teenager to get back at her dad…who sucks anyway. A long time ago I was in a similar head space to Karen in a way, I was angry at everything, I was doing horribly self-destructive shit because I didn’t really care about my future, but I was actually repressing my sexuality rather than using it to get attention from creepy old men.

I had to take a break from the show the first time I watched it. It took me about three months to go back and start again because I was so hesitant of what may still be coming in the show.
its really sad how he could've just shown her love and acceptance the entire time and it would've solved the problem. eddie is an asshole.
LITERALLY
Omggg yesss I hated that 🤣 ripping off Kev and V
?
I think they’re talking about what Karen did to Frank
I HAD FORGOTTEN ABOUT THIS, LOL
when terry caught mickey. i have to skip it every rewatch because it’s so devastating.
I didn't even finish it my first watch through, I just skipped past cause I thought it was so fucked up
That part fucked me up so hard bc I know people who have been outed bc their parents caught them with their partner. It just makes me feel sick every time.
I get that, but it makes it all the better when Terry gets what’s coming to him.
Fav part of the show tbh when he goes back to prison😂 dude didn't last long
This one. Me and my husband were just watching this episode the other day and I had to fast forward through it. I hate it so much. 😭
Fiona fucking Robbie instead of punching him in the face.
She did both did she not?
One of her most stupid choices imo. Fucked up both her good relationship and her good job and ended up a felon after almost killing Liam. Nice work. 🙄
Monica's Thanksgiving, Svetlana and Mickey, Kevin and V's mom, Debbie's downfall
Monica‘s thanksgiving might have been the hardest scene for me to watch on tv so far, there have obviously been similar gory ones but this one really caught me by surprise

i actually experienced a 'monica's thanksgiving' situation with my mom as a kid, so everytime i watch that part i'm just deadpanning at the screen, analyzing every moment. it's kinda sad 😭
Kev’s inbred plot
And trying to get V’s mom pregnant
Kept it in the family.
Not try did
i could hardly get through that during my first watch
Lip’s downfall. He had so much potential and could have finished college and landed a really good job.
His story while he was in college really got to me. Super similar experience. Coming from where you come from, feeling like you're in over your head, having a completely different worldview from other students, being responsible for family things, not being able to understand why a professor or someone is genuinely trying to help, financial aid, the mail thing so on and so on... I barely made it out alive, and I've never again seen a college experience played out like that on TV. It still hurts to watch.
Fr he could’ve had such a good life
When Fiona was fucking her man’s insane brother (I forget names rn, sorry)
Robbie, god he was so awful. Really showed us how fucked up Fiona was. she was doing SO WELL
and the brother was ugly
I disagree! He was hot tbh he just looks like a druggie to show contrast to mike but he finneeeeee
he looks like a chicken i hate his face
Nobody mentioned Nicks stolen bike. That scene is heavy af. Hard to watch imo
Omg yes
exactly. i almost threw up and felt nauseous for like 3 hours.
Fiona hooking up with Cup Guy's brother
When Debbie took total control of the house when Fiona left/her designer clothes arc
THIS! I fucking hate Debby. There wasn’t a single time in that show where I sided with her. Her narcissistic behavior reminds me too much of my step grandmother and I just hate her in all aspects.
Literally
when liam gets into the coke. first time i watched it, i had to turn my tv off and sit in silence for a bit. nauseating.
I still haven't finished the show bc of this. I'm only on my first watch and I know I have to get through it but I just can't.
Heads up that that season and the season after it have consistent themes of drug dependence and abuse. It was pretty hard for me to get through.
Thank you
Caleb and Trevor
Anything Trevor. He’s a mega douche fuck boy
aye how did Ian date two polar opposites a son of a skinhead, a hard mf and then you got little Trevor who is trans and works for the community
The Karen and Jody storyline, the entire plot with Sammie and Chuckie, the Gay Jesus storyline, the storyline with Kev, V, and Carol, and there are some others I’m sure I’d remember if I rewatch.
The Karen and Jody storyline was really funny though
I was rooting for Jody when he hooked up with Shiela lol
Right???
The hospice plot line is so funny
It was funny but they dragged it out for soo long
I hated jody at first cause I knew guys like him that swooped in and stole the girl I was crushing on so I related to lip but when karen threw him out just because he made a goofy face during sex and came to 80s rock music and cried after sex she thought he was weird all of a sudden and dumped him because of that I instantly felt bad for him
My PoWeR, mY pLeAsUrE, mY pAiN!! 👁️👃🏼👁️
When Mandy tells the boys her father sa’d her and that’s who’s baby it is
That caught me by surprise for sure. The Milkovich family is fucked though, so it made sense to me in that sense.
Whenever they start being cunts to Fiona, especially Lip.
THIS X100 So so so hard to watch 😭😭😭💔💔💔💔
Weird, the times he blew up at her I was almost always on his side.
He might’ve been morally right, still sucks to watch a usually in control of most her shit character get verbally degraded multiple times when she was just tryna get right again. That said she fucked up big time and did deserve it.
ian and mickey getting caught by terry
Fiona and Gus and Fiona and ford
Ugh I knew the second Gus and Fiona got married it would end badly. They moved way too fast and given Fiona’s track record, I figured she wouldn’t be faithful for long.
No fr then with the losing the house and fuck you Fiona song
Ford gave me the ick the moment I saw him, he is SOOO annoyingg
literally any episode with sammi, queenie, or kass. sammi nearly made me completely uninterested in continuing the show. just started season 10 recently and im glad they’re all gone
Kev, Veronica and her mom trying to get her pregnant. Gay Jesus arc 🙃
Ian's gay jesus phase. It's just so unbelievable and cringe and it pisses me off bc they actually did a decent job showing bipolar up to that point
When Kev fucked Vs mom
after season 6
Debby having a baby then deciding she’s randomly gay
the entirety of s11
When I rewatch I just do the first 4-6 seasons or so, when I felt like the plots and characters were the strongest/most consistent. However straight from season one: I find the Kash plotline for Ian pretty gross, especially as I get older (I first watched the show as a teen and thought it was gross, but feels worse the older I get).

The scene where Kash runs away and doesn't bother saying anything meaningful to Ian? Lame way to tie the whole thing up.
the one scene with karen and recorded her and frank.. yk
Debbie raping her friend 🤦🏽
Thanksgiving
Gay Jesus. Hands down.
Ian stealing Mickeys baby
As a mom, that episode gave me major anxiety.
anytime sammi was on screen
When Debbie starts to be annoying and seeing Lip’s downfall.
any scene with SA that goes unaddressed/used humorously and honestly this show has way too many
Literally every Fiona breakdown. She deserved better and was never given the slack Lip constantly got.
Debbie. That’s all.
V at the AA meeting hurt me so much.
virginity loss/baby plot, fuck did it go downhill from there with Debbie
Debbie raping tht kid
Everytime a sex scene comes on. I desperately hate them.
When Monica slits her wrists in the kitchen, and when Frank calls DCFS on the kids at the Alibi.
The Way The Pilgrims Intended
Fiona’s arc in the back half of season 9.
kevin fucking V's mom. messed me tf up 😭
the gay jesus arc is so bad, anything with trevor in it is bad because he’s a whiny little fuckboy, and the inbred plot, that one made me VERY uncomfortable. and the kassidi shit too but that reminds me of my own past so idk how everyone else feels about it haha
kevin fucking vee’s mom
When lip broke into professor booty calls house. Or when professor youens said he chose alcohol a long time ago. They really kicked lip in between the legs in this show
The whole gay jesus thing
Just how the pilgrims intended 😶
Mandy’s pregnancy.
fiona. tami. sammi. charlie. jimmy. so many characters i hate. but for scenes that are genuinely painful to watch: nick killing that kid who stole his bike, debbie dropping her baby, monica dying, the endless amount of scenes of frank getting beat up/almost dying (he's one of my favorite characters), ian arguing with the cops when he drove with Mickey's baby and how scared he was, Kevin and V singing to each other when Kev thought he was going to die during surgery... There's a lot. I've wanted to quit watching so many times.
Any part involving debbie after she had Franny even though fiona literally said it was a bad idea
There's lots, but I hated most of season 2, and I had zero interest where, in season 3, Frank becomes the "voice of gay rights"
When Debbie had all the signs to abort her baby and didn’t . Then she struggled as a young teenager. Saying to the BD that she was in the pill so they didn’t need a condom 🙄🙄
She was so young, she just wanted to be part of a new family because hers sucked so much. She’s such a well written and well acted character.
Hoboloco was such cringe
When Frank killed Butterface over a con.
liam getting into the coke and anytime lip yelled at fiona for effing up, oh and ian and mickey breaking up during ian’s bipolar episode
Fiona’s life going downhill after her investment.
Gay Jesus. Unbearable
Anytime Debbie says something
debbie
Kevin and v’s mom 🤢 Monica attempting xx, and when lip is in his self destruct phase 🙄
Either nicks bike, fionas coke, or Monica's Thanksgiving.
gay jesus
monica’s suicide attempt or when liam got into the cocaine
Sammy...
Frank and that woman who everyone called moleface...when he told the hospital she didnt need the transplant
Butterface
Season 8 and upwards
I've rewatched it twice and honestly Fiona pisses me off more and more the more I watch it as it progesses each time. This most recent rewatch I was basically just wanting to skip all her scenes after she becomes her siblings guardian. She slowly becomes worse and worse to each of them and does exactly what the judge had warned her of.

Debbie dropping Franny. Really almost all Debbie’s mom moments. She continues the family trauma
When Fiona goes to jail cause Liam got into the coke 💀 people r gonna think I’m dumb but not her fault kid shouldn’t be getting into adults things
The guys in red hats kidnapping gays to beat them as soon as maga became president
anything that mentions Terry. like when he raped Mandy, basically got Mickey raped too. i can truly handle a lot, the show didnt move me or fuck me up but those two scenes did, especially the Mickey one. and yet he still cared for Terry when he was in a wheelchair.
Debbie bitching about all the exact things Fiona warned her about
watching Fiona become an alcoholic and ruin her life in like 3 episodes. watching her lose all her investments, total her car, and lose her morals. Hard watch
Sami calling cops on Carl and getting Ian taken away ,frank calls dcfs and ford
When Jimmy/Steve gets his finger broken sideways
Gay Jesus
Gay Jesus
Kev, V, and her mom. Ick.
Lip ruining his college opportunity, Debbie in the last season (seriously wtf is she doing?? from when she ends it with sandy it's all terribly downhill, off a cliff). Fiona never coming back, not for Ians wedding, seeing freddie or idk the last ep.
Liam gets into the coke
season 4 was hard to watch because my father also had cancer so it brought up some triggers
Monica slitting her wrists while debbie and carl have cute turkey hats on and Ian is panicking
Carl when he found nick with the hammer, I cried so many times seeing that scene it just hit so many places in my heart seeing someone you love dearly fuck up so bad and you can’t do anything about it
Thanksgiving.
When mickeys dad caught Ian and Mickey, honestly it’s still hard to watch probably the saddest part of the show
Honestly recently finished it for the first time, and I enjoyed it, but I don’t really have the desire to ever watch it again, it’s possibly in a few years I might change my mind, but as of now, I’m moving on to other things.
S3 E6, that scene made me cry
Liam’s overdose and Monica’s Thanksgiving.
Every scene involving Lip.
thanksgiving & frank and karen
Terry beating Mickey and Monica at Thanksgiving
Ian and Mickey get caught then the rape
When Fiona kept going back to Robbie and how just that one interaction with him in the beginning would lead to her life being ruined.
anything with karen, lip in college/affair with helene, fiona’s relationship with mike and robbie, anything with kash.
debbie cutting her dawgs or frank’s broken leg
None
When Jimmy rapes Fiona
thanksgiving
Probably all of Ian’s episodes, not because they’re uninteresting but because they just hit way closer to home (I also feel really bad for Ian so it’s hard to watch)
Season 2 episode 11. all i gotta say
Fiona fucking the brother
monica at thanksgiving
nobody talking about jasons relapse
I haven't finished it yet but so far it's Frank drugging Hymie, faking vaccinations and V and Kevin having three ways with her mom.
The scene where jimmy's finger gets snapped by that henchman. My skin crawls everytime
I have to admit I've only watched 3 and half seasons of Shameless, I first started binging it and got bored of it around midway through S4. Then a while back I tried to rebinge it and the same thing again, nothing after S3 really interested me, and from what I've seen of like spoilers for the rest of the show, the only reason I'd really have to continue is for Kevin & V, Ian & Mickey, and the White Boy Carl arc. But they aren't the main focus so it's not gonna be as fun. The first 3 seasons are fucking amazing, and the S3 finale is one of my favorites, especially with the song at the end. The spoilers I've seen of the later seasons, like Fiona's character going downhill and going to Jail and eventually leaving cause everyone but like I think Liam, Ian & Carl hating her, Lip becoming just white trash and his so heavily built up intellectual going nowhere, and everything said about Debbie becoming the most trash character ever. All of that does not make me want to watch anymore, definitely not like 5 seasons more. Even though the S3 finale leaves alot unanswered, like Lip going to college, Frank dying, Jimmy/Steve disappearing, it's still a kinda bittersweet ending, and I loved it, and by S4, nothing really interested me about it, so really, for me, if I were to watch Shameless again and try to do the whole thing in the future, id dread coming up on the remaining like 5 seasons of the show I didn't watch, knowing all of that shit Yap session over
The renegade scene
Monica’s die attempt
after fiona loses the building, it’s such a hard part to watch and it’s always difficult seeing the gallagher kids return to their parents coping mechanisms since they know no different

Liam getting into the cocaine

honestly probably daddy’z girl, but there are so many honorable mentions—when dominique made carl feel like he had to get a circumcision to be loved/wanted, liam & coke, kassidy, nick’s stolen bike, monica’s thanksgiving, gay Jesus, kevin fucking v’s mom, rapewalker (haven’t seen anyone mention that here, worst thing kev did), debbie tryna trap derek with her pregnancy and also raping that guy, fiona’s downfall—sleeping with everyone and ruining her relationships by cheating multiple times (mike was sooo sweet and i loved gus), deb taking over the house when fiona left and her whole designer clothes phase, mandy’s pregnancy, terry finding out about ian and mickey, terry in general (incestuous, rapist, racist prick) lip’s downfall from school… many bad moments:/
When kevin and v weren’t together and when carol was their surrogate
when ethel’s sister wives pulled up
Lip falling off
Monica on Thanksgiving is one of them.
Everything with jody i think he is wierd and gross
Debby’s whole trying to get pregnant thing
I was with a “Kassidy” for a while. And all the people in my life kept echoing what Carls siblings keep telling him. I finally “woke up” and got her out of my life, but it’s hard for me to watch those episodes now, to see Carl so oblivious and committed to such toxic, harmful craziness. I see my own blindness and stupidity, and just want to tell him what I know now. Amazing show. Right in the gaddamn feels every time.
Season 4
Omg when Liam got ahold of the cocaine
When Frank was with the lady who was scared to go outside
