when does the new shameless season start
Now that Emmy Rossum's contract dispute has been settled, Showtime has officially given Shameless the go-ahead for Season 8. Shameless will begin production on Season 8 in May 2017 for a fall premiere. The season will have 12 episodes. Shameless is Showtime's longest-running original scripted series, and it pulled off the rare feat of increasing its ratings in its seventh season, which was the series' highest-rated to date.
