#i'm contemplating dropping Sh*meless actually #like the way this show went from this exceptionally intricate and bold and gutwrenching story #that felt so bone-deep and heartfelt and intimate #in season 1 #to this utterly bloated and constipated story that feels borderline gore in how much it exploits emotional moments for shock value #without letting you find an ounce of value in these moments #okay i HAD heard that it starts well and gets worse by midpoint before it gets better #i just did not expect the middle to be fucking season 2 and after #and this is honestly heartbreaking because S1cwas an extraordinary experience for me #a kind of honest apeshitery that i hadn't seen a TV show dare to have in a very long while #and Ian is my baby and i still love all the characters #but the story became an unbearable emotion freak show way too fast
