Shameless, a dark comedy-drama series, revolves around the dysfunctional Gallagher family, led by an alcoholic, Frank Gallagher, who navigates their life in poverty, addiction, and family dynamics in Chicago. On account of its raw portrayal of social issues and explicit content, the show was banned in Indonesia and Saudi Arabia, as such themes are deemed inappropriate.
