Post Description
The series follows the dysfunctional family of Frank Gallagher, a single father of six children. While he spends his days drunk, his kids learn to take care of themselves.
The show's producers sought to distinguish it from previous American working-class shows by highlighting the effects that Frank's alcoholism has on the family.[3] Paul Abbot, creator of the original, said, "It's not My Name Is Earl or Roseanne. It's got a much graver level of poverty attached to it. It's not blue collar; it's no collar."[3] When John Wells, the showrunner, began pitching the show, he had to fight efforts to place the show in the South or in a trailer park-comedic clichés. He explained, "We have a comedic tradition of making funof the people in those worlds. The reality is that these people aren't 'the other' - they're people who live four blocks down from you and two blocks over."[3]n de categorie Beste Dramaserie.
