Season five of Shameless saw the focus shift from Frank Gallagher's miserable lonely life to him having a partner. It was one of the best things the writers could have done in the series and because of that, the fifth outing turned out to be another good addition to the Showtime Original.
Besides that, Fiona Gallagher continued her merry way of breaking hearts, by moving from one man to another until she fixated on Sean. Going into season six, this was one of the most anticipated storylines, along with Ian's journey from a young teenager to a bipolar adult. Here's how every episode from the sixth outing of the show ranks according to IMDb.
