Supporting Cast: Gallagher Pedicure – Shameless

Here are some of the actors and actresses who appeared in Shameless, Episode 11, Season 8 (1-21-18): The recap of the episode is here.

You only have a half a million in liability.

Maggie Wheeler played the attorney who is going to defend Fiona in the lawsuit filed by Rodney. According to her, the jury is going to take one look at Rodney’s poor starving homeless family and another at Fiona, the slumlord who ruined their lives, and Fiona will be lucky not to get locked up. Shouldn’t she be looking into Rodney’s background to see how many prior accident lawsuits he filed or trying to find some contributory negligence or something? Whose side are you on, lady?

Honestly, I’m surprised you wanted to meet.

Laird Macintosh played Andrew, Dylan’s foolish father who, despite having grown up in Camden, didn’t have enough sense to realize that Frank wasn’t being a concerned and responsible parent coming over to see him– Frank was casing the joint! On another level, it was weird that Andrew even brought that up because they let their kid, Dylan, sleep over at the Gallaghers without even calling up to speak to anyone over there. Remember how Dylan’s mom was totally skeeved out when she went to pick her son up?.

They put me into therapy, three days a week!

Jack Essner played Blake, the kid who Ian went to bat for against Father Murphy’s advice. It seemed like Blake’s father (Andy Umberger) touched a nerve when he told Ian that they thought Blake might be mentally ill and then Blake said they were knocking him out cold with prescription drugs. This likely made Ian more determined to help Blake, having been through a similar experience with prescription drugs. However, that was no reason to blow up the guy’s car! Father Murphy was more right than he knew when he talked about legal consequences. Well, at least in real life, Ian would be doing his preaching in a jail cell.

Yo! You gotta buy or walk!

Ahmad Ferguson played the kid who was dealing drugs on what used to be Carl’s corner. He showed Carl where G-Dogg’s brains were now– in a little puddle in the street. Right after that, much to thrill-seeker Kassidi’s delight, a car drove by and opened fire on all of them.

I want show off my beautiful bride-to-be.

Jack Wallace played Rupert Sheffield, the blind old sugar daddy who is planning on marrying Freelania (Tina Ivlev). His eyesight is so bad that he didn’t know Freelania from Svetlana. Nevertheless, you know what they say about senses, when one goes bad, the others are heightened. And you know what Freelania said about how much he loves her feet. So we’re thinking that’s how he’s going to find out about the ol’ switcheroo Svetlana is trying to pull.
