‘Shameless’: 12 Things We Learned From the Season 10 Trailer (PHOTOS)
Not Fiona
“I’m not Fiona,” Debbie (Emma Kenney) says at the beginning of the teaser, setting a new tone for the family dynamic. And unlike Fiona (Emmy Rossum), Debbie won’t be doing her family’s laundry for them.
Roommates
It appears that Frank’s (William H. Macy) Hobo Loco Man competitor Mikey O’Shea (Luis Guzman) is dwelling with the Gallaghers.
We Need to Talk About Kevin
Kevin (Steve Howey) may or may not have gone crazy between seasons, considering the first time we spot him in the trailer he’s ripping his shirt off in the middle of the Alibi.
Concern
Veronica (Shanola Hampton) looks concerned about Kev in this quick shot from the teaser. Has her husband gone off the deep end?
Funding by Fiona
In the Season 9 finale, Fiona gave Debbie a large sum of funds to finance the family in her absence, but if this storage unit of clothes says anything, it’s that the new family matriarch isn’t using the whole allowance for its intended purpose.
Wardrobe
Debbie’s new wardrobe raises some questions — specifically, what her new look and clothing are for exactly.
Friendly Competition
Mickey (Noel Fisher) and Ian (Cameron Monaghan) may be reunited, but has the honeymoon phase worn off? We briefly see them fighting for a shot at a fellow inmate that’s gotten on their nerves.
Graduation
Carl’s military school career seems to be coming to an end when it’s shown that he’s attending a graduation ceremony.
Cheer Squad
Kelly (Jess Gabor) is Carl’s biggest cheerleader in the stands — upping her supportive level by leaps and bounds from Season 9.
Kev in the Club
Is that Kev on the pole? It looks like it, but why is he back to work in the gay club? Perhaps to make some extra money, but we can’t wait to find out.
Papa Lip
It appears that Lip’s child has arrived, and nothing brings family together like a baby, so of course the rest of the gang is there to support the new dad.
Next Generation
The end of the trailer featured a close-up shot of the Gallagher family’s latest addition, but a name and gender remain a mystery.
Shameless may not return until November, but Showtime has revealed its first teaser for the show’s landmark 10th season.
So what does the first chapter sans Fiona (Emmy Rossum) look like? The Gallaghers are up to their old tricks without the eldest sibling’s guidance, and while some of them appear to be thriving, others may be struggling.
At the end of the day, fans have come to know the TV family as nothing short of resilient — will they continue to be in Season 10? Check out our trailer breakdown above for all of the key moments and watch the teaser below.
