Showtime's Shameless Is a Remake – Here's the British Original It's Based On

Showtime's Shameless, starring William H. Macy as Frank Gallagher, ran for 11 seasons and 134 episodes — making it the longest-running scripted original drama in the network's history. However, many viewers don't know it is a remake of a British series of the same name, and Macy was not the original Frank Gallagher. The UK Shameless predated the American version and served as the direct inspiration for the story of the dysfunctional Gallagher family.

Is the American Shameless better than the British original?
