I do like Happy Endings, and I'll miss that show.

Cameron Monaghan...is that the Gallagher kid (Ian?), or Mickey? Either way, that makes me sad. One of my favorite aspects of Shameless is that it doesn't have just one gay character. There's the two high school kids, one in the closet with the door open, the other in a complicated and heartbreaking kind of denial, the Muslim shopkeeper, Steve/Jimmy's dad, Carl's foster patents, the gay mafia/gay rights guy...it's kinda like real life.
