by gods, for all that i fucking hated the second half of season 9 and had been hating Fiona's characterization since season 5 basically, her leaving doesn't get easier even if you watch the scenes 50 fucking times
#Shameless did Fiona dirty not gonna lie#her characterization progressively getting worse through the season only hurts second to what the show made out of Lip#Ian Gallagher truly the only character to have escaped Paul Abbott's characterization relatively unscathed and staying dear and lovable#till the very last minute#but also i did start on S10 and#popular opinion: Debbie is so fucking annoying and irritating#and a whole entire sack of absolutely irrelevant and nonsensical character traits. season 1 debbie would've roasted s10 debbie on open fire#possibly not so popular opinion: Paul Abbott is actually fucking bad at writing female characters with the exception of V and V ONLY#(okay Mandy too)#and the reason Debbie is fucking abhorrent is because she's literally written as later-seasons Fiona. She's her.#they were both fucked characterizations#it's just that Fiona had a bite and entered into games from the top spot; she took control of the situations naturally#because she //had// power. And Debbie has none. so she looks desperate and try-hard. Emmy Rossum brought a bitch flavour to Fiona#that Emma Kenney just can't bring to Debbie#¯\_(ツ)_/¯#not that i care. the entirety of Shameless cast have more or less become absolete in narrative and plot save Kev and V and Ian/Mickey#I hope Cameron Monaghan's health insurance covered for the fucked up back he got#from carrying Shameless US' only substantial and heartfelt and meaningful plotline for 12 years basically#Lip used to be wonderful. Hell; they all used to be wonderful. and by the time we get to S10 there's basically nothing left of the show#save Ian and Mickey. that's it.
