Critical Analysis: Mickey and Ian from Shameless (U.S.)
Baylee Akins
The same-sex relationship between Ian and Mickey in Shameless (U.S.) is broadcast on television and subscription sites alike.

The Showtime series, created by Paul Abbot, is about the Gallagher family—six siblings who work together to take care of each other, all-the-while dealing their destructive, alcoholic father.
