Showtime komt met Shameless seizoen 9

In navolging van de achtste seizoenspremière heeft Showtime groen licht gegeven een seizoen 9 van de hitserie Shameless. De opnames zullen in 2018 plaatsvinden. David Nevins, President en CEO van Showtime Networks Inc., liet weten:

“As challenging as it can be for any show simply to maintain viewers in the current TV landscape, Shameless is adding them in droves. But it’s no mystery why. The series’ reputation for rich and resonant characters and for deep – and deeply twisted – comedy has drawn not only faithful longtime viewers, but a steadily growing audience. And creatively, the season that kicked off this past Sunday is stronger than ever.”

Uitvoerend producent en showrunner John Wells voegde toe:

“We are so grateful to Showtime for giving us the opportunity to continue making Shameless. It’s a labor of love (and a blast) for all of us.”

In de hoofdrollen zien we William H. Macy, Emmy Rossum, Jeremy Allen White, Ethan Cutkosky, Shanola Hampton, Steve Howey, Emma Kenney, Cameron Monaghan en Isidora Goreshter.
