I been pretty quiet this season but here is what I see....
I said last season that Fiona is an extremely selfish person and has no real business being the guardian of those kids. She was arguably better off getting those kids in foster care (Debbie being the exception). Fiona is an extremely self destructive person. Much like her mother and father. If not for her good fortune, she would be in front of the alibi tricking for 40 bucks a turn. She has made a string of bad decisions and those are decisions she should not be making as a LEGAL GUARDIAN. She had a very good job and she was on track to move up in the company, she had a lame, but good hearted boyfriend who saw her self destructive tendencies and ignored them. Not only that but he put her out there doing pretty important company business and she threw it all away to get freaky with his burnout coked out drunkie brother. When he dropped off that cocaine she should have just flushed it instead she throws a party with children in the house to get turnt up. So her BABY BROTHER gets in the stash, and while she did feel guilty she is so obsessed with the idea of her being innocent at heart she is willing to take a nickel in prison (she would have been found guilty no questions asked) instead of doing a 30-90 day bid. She gets off super easy, with just 3 years of probation and she has the nerve to be sad about it, this was the best case scenario. Lip was right in beating her down, she needed some sense slapped into her. I understand the sacrifices she has made in the past but she could have easily killed Liam, and she may have stunted the kids development (not that he seemed too bright anyway).
Lip has grown the most this season. I understand he is an entitled genius. But he is learning that just being smart won't get you through college, that you have to work hard and show effort and initiative. The thing that also helps him is that he has some distance from his ex-girlfriends, even though Mandy was cool as hell and helped him get into college. He does need to watch himself, stealing from the cafeteria is gonna get hi in trouble. Also he needs to try and not fukk his roomates GF. Not cool especially when said roomate has been nothing but a gentleman and has helped Lip in multiple situations. I do think he should be the leader of the house while Fiona gets her shyt together.
Something bad happened to Ian in the military (raped?) I think that's why he has been acting so bizarrely.
Mickey has grown into one of the most likable characters in the show. Dude has a heart.
Debbie needs to slow down, she has to not be so obsessed with having sex, she has 2 slut friends that aren't helping either, but I also think that it is from the fallout from her realizing Frank is a piece of shyt.
Carl is a goon in the making but I like his fire, he just needs better outlets to let out all that excess energy, he is an underrated character because behind it all he's just a typical 12 year old kid.
Franks Oldest is so easily manipulated by Frank, why she thought it made sense to get him drugs is beyond me.
Yo that Native dude was pretty cool, trying to build a sweat lodge,
Sheila is a trip as always, but damn she cooks some cray shyt, those grocery bills must be out of control
Is it me or is Veronica and Kev the most organic IR couple I have seen on TV? They just seem so natural it never crosses my mind.
Frank is gonna die, imo, but it won't be this season.
