Season 6 of Shameless begins tonight on SoHo.
This has been fast-tracked after its premiere in the US yesterday.
For five seasons now, we’ve somehow grown to love the crazy family that is the Gallaghers. Between arrests, broken relationships, a drunken father, plenty of illegal activities. Airing the same week as the US, Season six of ‘Shameless’ picks up a few months after last year’s finale, leaving the Gallaghers to prepare for yet another long Chicago winter, this season will see more than just the arctic Lake Michigan winds whipping through the Southside. Change is hard and the Gallaghers are as surprised as anyone at how life is turning out for them. But the question remains, as they come into their own and find out who they are, is it really possible that the Gallaghers could grow apart for good?
Wednesdays from January 13 at 8.30pm on SoHo.
Updated: Hollywood Reporter notes it has just been renewed for 12 more episodes.
“Shameless has clearly resonated with audiences as evidenced by their steady growth on Sunday nights over the past six years,” Showtime president of programming Gary Levine said in a statement. “We are extremely pleased with the creative work being done by [executive producers] John Wells, Nancy Pimental and the entire cast, producers and writers — and we so appreciate Shameless’ clear and distinctive voice.”

Great news that we get another season.
I was a late comer and binge watched 1-5 over holiday period on Netflix.
S6 premiere last night was excellent as usual.
Awesome news…. Love this show and its great that there are at least 2 more seasons of it coming…
BTW, the first episode season 6 aired in the US a week and a half ago.
No, there was an online preview a week ahead of the broadcast. Strictly speaking I’m out by a day.
They can’t grow too far apart. Showtime announced S7 after they got the overnights for the premiere.
