I wasn't trying to say that we should empathize w/ him. I'd be worried if anyone actually empathized w/ Frank. I was just shocked by how many people were ready to abandon this show because of his barbaric antics in this episode.

I'm not sure why everyone's so turned-off by this episode and Frank's horrible behavior! 
You guys do know you're watching a show called SHAMELESS, right? On Showtime? We've established, since the very first episode of the series, that Frank is a horrible, horrible, horrible person. But isn't that one of the reasons we…

yes! it kept bothering me because he looked so much older…much older than 26. They were only supposed to be two grades/years apart. And we've established, I think last week, that Fi is 22… so yeah he didn't look like he was 24.

Did she say Glencoe?! I'll have to rewatch, but I swear I recall Fiona screaming something about how the purse woman was still trash even though she moved to the northside…or something along those lines.

haha.

Chicago!!! So glad to see that on this list!

noooooooooooooooooooo!!! damn!!!! LOVED Bored to Death & HTMIIA

Thanks for answering!

A couple dumb Qs to quell my OCD…

haha.

haha, yeah, I didn't actually mean to imply that Jeff issued the Cease and Desist. I think it was pretty clear that he snitched. I just meant it was his "laweyering" knowledge that made him do that and the whole Cease and Desist thing being just a pamphlet was so priceless.

haha!!! laughing my ass off right now just reading these comments and thinking about it.

LMAO!

i had to look up froyo! haha

YES!!! haha, i just noticed that right now as I'm rewatching. LMAO!!! practically crying right now.

Another to comment to a million:

LOL! omg, re-watching this episode again right now because this show is the best thing in my life right now, (haha, sad, i know. ) BUT this show is one of THE best and most well-made things on TV right now and frankly there is some competition out there.

oh, oops i forgot he was captured in '03. for some reason i was thinking he was captured right after 9/11

Yeah, I was wondering something similar… it sort of seems like the show has based the VP on a Cheney-like VP rather than a Biden-like one. But the show takes place in 2009/2010…

My favorite joke of the ep.:
