Showtime announced that, for now, Shameless Season 11 was the last season and they are not going to renew the show for the Shameless Season 12. Get all the latest details regarding the 12th season of Shameless below. 

Shameless Season 12 Release Date

When Showtime announced the renewal of the Shameless Season 11, they also announced that there is not going to be a next season i.e. Shameless Season 12. At least, not for now. So when they finally released the 11th season, it was the last season. 

The official announcement even had some of the things related to the renewal status of the 12th season, which read: “This is going to be the last call and the Gallaghers are going out with their own kind of biggest bang ever. Changes are coming that will force each of them to either set up or hit the road. But they know one thing for certain – Gallaghers may grow up, but they’ll never grow apart.”

For now, there is no official news regarding the Shameless Season 12 release date. If the show is renewed then the creators will be sharing the latest updates regarding the Shameless Season 12 trailer release as well as the series release. 

Shameless Storyline

The series is a tragic comedy-drama series and is based on award-winning British television series of the same name. This story revolves around a Chicago neighborhood of Canaryville and follows the Gallagher family. There are distinct types of family members in this family and each of them has their own drama and their life. 

There is the father Frank Gallagher who is always drunk and/or lying somewhere on the floor. He has six independent and smart kids who are living better lives only because of their elder sister Fiona. Frank is always in bars or partying but because of Fiona, everyone gets to live their lives and despite having an alcoholic father, they are together as a family. 

Creators of the Show

The television story was developed by John Wells and soon became the longest-running original scripted series in Showtime’s history. 

Shameless Season 11 Release

In January 2020 the 11th season was announced and then the last episode aired on 11th April 2021. While airing the last episode, the creators as well as cast members all were quite emotional and declared that this was the last season. 

Still, being such a popular and longest-running series of its kind, fans are expecting to have Shameless Season 12, even now. Despite all odds, you never know what happens from where. Some other network or any other platform might be interested in getting their hands on this popular series. 

Extra Six Episodes: Shameless Hall of Shame

By not renewing the series for the Shameless Season 12, fans were quite disappointed, and to address that, the creators’ team released a limited series. It was a six-episode limited series and was released along with the airing of the 11th season. 

It contained some of the new as well as original scenes of the series and focused more on each of the main characters and their stories. It was the perfect way to catch all the memorizing things they have done over the duration of 10 years. 

Shameless Spin-Offs and Possible Movies

During its run, the series was one of the most-watched series, and even now, there are so many fans who still re-watch their favorite episodes. Even after being such a popular series, there have been no spin-offs or movies until now. We can not be sure about the future, because anything is possible. The showrunner Wells said in an interview that he is not more into making the sequels or spin-offs of the original shows. It is because he believes more in making one-of-its-kind series during its run time. Hence the creator is not going to make any possible spinoff of the show.
