Want to really feel outdated? What if we advised you that Shameless has been airing on Showtime for nearly 10 years? Over the past decade, the show has won a variety of accolades including Emmys, GLAAD awards, and Critics' Choice Television Awards.

After a wild journey with the Gallagher circle of relatives and a few exits from liked forged contributors, it has formally been introduced that fans of the long-running series will have to bid farewell to the Chicago-based family.

Sadly, this will be the remaining season of Shameless.

Though fans have been excited to be told that Showtime used to be renewing the series for Season 11, the community also introduced that it will be the final. Co-president of Entertainment Gary Levine explained to Deadline: "Shameless has been such a great performer for us, and we just felt like, 11 seasons is a big fat number."

Adding, "We just felt it was time, and we also liked the idea of giving John and Co. a chance to end it well, to be able to aim for that landing.”  

So, will Emmy Rossum aka Fiona Gallagher be returning to the show, or at least a few episodes, for the final season, which is set to air this summer?

“Too early to say," Gary informed the outlet. "She would be welcomed with open arms but Emmy doesn’t owe us anything,” Levine said. “She did great for the show as the show did great for her, and it was a very amicable parting. So if she surprises us, it would be lovely.”

Season 10 of the show, which stars William H. Macy (Frank), returned to Showtime in November 2019, and is comprised of 12 episodes, the last of which will air later this month (January).  

Over the course of Season 10, we've seen Ian return from jail – a welcome surprise considering actor Cameron Monaghan had announced his impending departure in October of 2018. Fans are definitely loving his story arc and are extremely glad he's back in the Gallagher household, noting especially the heartfelt and pleasant scenes he has with Lip (Jeremy Allen White).   

Debbie (Emma Kenney) and Carl (Ethan Cutkosky) have also been playing a key role this season, as Debbie has been struggling with her new title as head of household, following Emmy's departure as the matriarch of the family.

Debbie determined to take the Gallagher's finances into her own palms and has been giving her siblings $one hundred every week to paintings with on debit cards this season. In addition to all of this, Frank has taken it upon himself to give a contribution to the circle of relatives as neatly by way of getting a role. 

Meanwhile, Lip and Tami (Kate Miner) have been adjusting to the struggles of being new parents. 

Considering that the fanbase of the show hasn't waned too much since the departure of Emmy, and that there is so much left to explore inside the Gallagher family dynamics, we're sad the show is coming to an finish.

That said, we're preserving an eye fixed out to see if Emmy, and possibly one (or two) of her ex-boyfriends, like Jimmy-Steve, will go back for the ultimate season. 

It has been in reality historic and momentous to keep observing this amazing and resilient family on our displays each Sunday.

In the intervening time, binge Seasons 1 via 9 of Shameless on Netflix and catch up with all the antics. Season 10 is lately on the air via the finish of January every Sunday at Nine p.m. on Showtime.
