Shameless

Heading into its tenth season , Shamelesshas graced boob tube with a X of drama . Fans have utterly fallen in honey with the Gallagher clan and their friends , a godforsaken group of masses just doing their best to survive . yield , all their unprompted wont and decisions do n’t help .

One of the best part ofShamelesshas always been the romantic kinship . see the independent cast go through ups and downs , settle in dearest , out of love , and all the messiness in between has been a unequaled treat . After all , no one quite does lie with like this syndicate . However , not all relationships are created every bit . While some are amazing pieces of compatibility artwork , others are a complete hole devotee wish they never saw .

Kevin and V (Perfect)

Kevin and V have been through a hatful of concentrated times over the years . Shamelessdoesn’t leave any of its characters unhurt , and , even though they are well the most stable part of the show , they have work through a lot . From Kevin ’s wife to V ’s infertility to their time as a Thruple , their relationship has brave out many violent storm .

However , through it all , Kevin and V always notice a means back to each other . They balance each other out romantically , sexually , and as parents . They are an easy couple to rootle for when , at the end of the day , they always love each other . Granted , there is n’t much contest for systematically happy couples , though .

Carl and Kassidi (No Sense)

Carl has made a circumstances of refutable decisions over the years . He is the Gallagher kid that ’s flummox in the most trouble with the law of nature , has been the closest to being an active criminal , and has gotten demand in a bunch of unelaborated relationships . None are as unelaborated as Kassidi , though , a ample girl want to rebel from her puerility . Carl and Kassidi matched each other in stolidity , getting married at a young age and so speedily into their human relationship .

But , ultimately , the pair never made sense . Sure , Carl would definitely live with her initial progress , but he ’s so focussed on money , military school , and his family , her require to rebel and be liberal would n’t precisely mesh with what he wanted . Carl does n’t seem like the kind of bozo who ’d let a young woman get in the way of life of that … except he did , and it still does n’t make much sense .

Ian and Mickey (Perfect)

Now , are Ian and Mickey a staring couple that citizenry should shoot for to emulate ? perfectly not . They both scramble to make good choices for themselves , and their lives perpetually birl out of restraint . But are they perfect for each other ? emphatically . Mickey brings out the more level - point side of Ian and will do whatever he needs to to protect him . Ian bring out a softer side to Mickey , serve him move away from his violent , law-breaking - ridden roots .

If only these two could be together , they ’d find a way to move past their inheritance and be expert people . However , since Mickey ca n’t be in the US and Ian ca n’t go away his category , apart they stay .

Debbie and Matty (No Sense)

Debbie getting a press on an older hombre is n’t the problem here . That is a fairly vulgar affair for a teenaged little girl to do . Yet , for Matt to have any involvement in Debbie or interact with her ? That ’s a yikes . After all , she was only a young teen and he was in his twenties . Even when they first met , there was no way he could have mistaken her for someone older .

consider he backed off when she said her real old age , it surplus does n’t make sense . Either the dude is completely clueless or has a affair for agency too unseasoned girls . Either way , it does n’t make sense or he ’s gross . The Debbie / Matt flirtation ( and by and by illegal seduction ) never should ’ve pass .

Fiona and Jimmy (Perfect)

Jimmy is n’t a complete guy — maybe not even a unspoiled one , but he ’s the only guy rope Fiona ever dated that integrate both the thing she was draw in to . He ’s both a bad bad male child and a good guy who loves family . Even though Jimmy was a railroad car thief , he loved Fiona ’s family and supported her and them . They may have done reckless , impulsive , fun things but they were always back home to take upkeep of the kids .

After Jimmy , Fiona only ever go after good guys who bored her and she ended up hurting or bad guys who always let down and hurt her . Even substantially , he always prioritized the child ' prophylactic but also advance Fiona to have playfulness and hold out a footling . They were the perfect match for each other , but they might never see each other again .

Frank and Queenie (No Sense)

Frank and Queenie ’s family relationship was like Frank and Shelia ’s , but on steroids . She was a sweet fair sex with some serious quirks who , for inscrutable rationality , loved Frank dearly . Queenie was dear to the kids , helped around the house , and significantly ameliorate their home life .

Of of course , that ’s not exactly what Frank loves in a fair sex . Even if Queenie was a mantrap , his sottish , selfish habits always arrest up to him . The fact they had a relationship at all was a miracle . Even though they made no horse sense , at least Queenie could impart some good out of Frank and the menage for a minuscule while . Before he mess up it up again , that is .

Lip and Sierra (Perfect)

The only reason Lip and Sierra did n’t work out is because Lip was in a selfish downward spiral and did n’t care about anyone but himself . While they were together , Sierra and Lip made each other happy , added stableness to their lives , and encouraged each other out of bad situations . Sierra left her abusive ex-wife , and Lip finally recognise his inebriation . They were n’t consummate people , but they worked well together and were always ameliorate .

If only acknowledging his drunkenness did n’t make lip call on on Sierra and advance her to go back to abusive swain ( seriously ? ) , that would ’ve been groovy .

Karen and Jody (No Sense)

Shamelessplays quite a bit with age - opening relationship , but few feel as yucky as Jody and Karen . Jody was a grown world , and Karen was a teenager . He may have been slur - witted and well - meaning , but he was so much older and had nothing in common with Karen . He made more sense with Sheila than he ever did with Karen . She just was using him because … well , she ’s Karen .

Their marriage was always a sham . The worst part of their relationship , though , was that Shiela lost a man and child she do it just because she feel guilty that she " took everything " from her daughter . Yeah , that ’s not how any of that play , but Karen and Jody were endgame , purportedly ? Disappointing and nonsensical .

Frank and Monica (Perfect)

Let ’s accent that this does not intend they are couple finish . They are n’t even a secure distich . But are Frank and Monica perfect for each other ? Well , when it comes to what they appear for in a somebody , yeah .

Frank and Monica are toxic , but they do adore each other . He is always willing to go on her wild impulse adventures , and she bring out a gentle side of him . They also do make each other happy , even if that comes with a lot of yelling , too . Maybe under better circumstances , Frank and Monica could ’ve been a floater couple traveling the humankind on wild adventures . But , with their kids , trapped in Chicago ? They never had much of a long - term shot .

Fiona and Gus (No Sense)

Ah , and now to maybe the dumbest human relationship inShamelesshistory . While Fiona got more and more reckless over the season , her grapheme rightfully jumped the shark when she wed the good guy Gus after only a calendar week of geological dating . Not only was that impulsive , but she only begin dating him in the first place because his big - boy buddy Davis had a lady friend .

Understandably , this kinship evaporated cursorily and only make a lot of divorce troubles for Fiona and her family . Pure yikes . Gus , Fiona , and the fans all deserved advantageously than this .
