From Emmy®-winning executive producer John Wells (ER, The West Wing) and Warner Bros. Television, Shameless stars Oscar®-nominated actor William H. Macy (Fargo, Door to Door) as Frank Gallagher, the outspoken, alcoholic, single father of six clever and resourceful siblings, who are trying to scrape by on Chicago’s South Side. Shameless: The Complete Seventh Season will retail for $39.99 SRP for the Blu-ray™ and $29.98 SRP for the standard DVD edition.
Shameless: The Complete Seventh Season is currently available to own on Digital HD via purchase from digital retailers.
As the seventh season of Shameless kicks off, Frank (William H. Macy) wakes from a month long coma after having been tossed into the Chicago River, only to realize that no one came looking for him at the hospital. Fiona (Emmy Rossum), who still works at Patsy’s Pies as the manager, is faced with making major executive decisions in order to keep the business afloat. Lip (Jeremy Allen White) is out of rehab but struggles with his sobriety. Ian (Cameron Monaghan) and Caleb (Jeff Pierre) hit a major snag in their relationship after Caleb is caught cheating. Debbie (Emma Kenney), now a single teen mom, begins stealing high-end strollers in order to pay a nanny to care for her baby. Carl (Ethan Cutkosky) chooses to get circumcised. Kevin, Veronica and Svetlana consider opening a topless maid service.
“William H. Macy and the rest of the Shameless cast are brilliant in the way they portray the Gallagher clan. Each character captivates our hearts and we cheer them on through all their struggles. This is just one of the reasons Shameless is such a special show,” said Rosemary Markson, WBHE Senior Vice President, TV Marketing. She added, “We’re delighted to offer another season of this outstanding series to consumers on DVD and Blu-ray with bonus content.”
Based on the long-running, award-winning British series, Shameless was adapted for American television by John Wells and original UK series creator Paul Abbott (State of Play) and made its U.S. debut on Showtime January 9, 2011. Showtime’s youngest-skewing series, Shameless developed a loyal fan base during the first season, and averaged over 2.5 million viewers each episode during its seventh season. The series is Showtime’s #1 series across all key Adult demos (out of 9 series).*
