A very minor but sad result of everything thatвЂ™s happened in the pandemic. That was biggest disappointment: not being able to make that work out because we all wanted it to happen.

Based on what was going on with the pandemic, when we were planning it - there have been so many surges, I canвЂ™t remember which one it was - but the quarantines went back into effect between New York and Los Angeles and it was impossible to figure out how to get her back. We wanted her to return and had some storylines about her coming back and she wanted to do it.

We were trying to get Emmy - and Emmy wanted to come back. Showrunner John Wells spoke with The Hollywood Reporter about how Emmy wanted to come back, but the pandemic-logistics crushed that idea:

Fiona never returned, not even for the finale. Steve Howey (who portrayed the muscle-bound, bar-owning Kevin) recently tweeted that he missed Fiona, and so did the series. ThatвЂ™s only to be expected following the departure of Emmy RossumвЂ™s Fiona, who was more than Gallagher glue: she was the jaded heart of the series. Mostly, the long-running show struggled, even while keeping it real with a pandemic storyline, for these past few seasons. No complaints there, and he got more kindness from Liam than he deserved.

Yeah, Frank (who suffered from accelerating dementia this season) ended up dying alone, which makes sense since heвЂ™s on the list of the All-Time Worst TV Dads. It kinda felt like any other episode, other than delivering one of the things that I wanted from the final season: a lifeless Frank (from COVID-19 after a lifetime of abusing his body in every way possible). We donвЂ™t know what happened to the family house (and if Lip will manage to sell the thing) or what will happen with most of the still-present siblingsвЂ™ living situations. counterpart did, and on Sunday night, the Gallaghers bid farewell to their audience while leaving things fairly open-ended. Shameless ran for eleven seasons like its U.K. (Spoilers from the final season of Shameless and the series finale will be found below.)
