Margaret Qualley, Maid Ricardo Hubbs/Netflix If you miss the early days of Shameless, which largely centered around Fiona’s (Emmy Rossum) struggles to raise her siblings on her own while also trying to keep the Gallagher family financially afloat, you’ll definitely appreciate Maid. The miniseries centers around Alex (Margaret Qualley), a single mother who escapes an abusive relationship and gets a job as a housecleaner in Washington to support herself and her young daughter. Plus, Qualley gives an incredible performance.
But aside from character names, their portrayals of poverty, and both shows having essentially identical first seasons, the British Shameless is very much its own separate animal. Charlie Day, Rob McElhenney, Glenn Howerton, Kaitlin Olson, and Danny Devito, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia Patrick McElhenney/FXX How rare it is to find a show that can out-shame Shameless, but It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia does a pretty excellent job. Also, both shows have garbage father figures named Frank, and the one in Sunny is played by Danny DeVito.
Mary-Louise Parker plays Nancy Botwin, a widowed mother who moonlights as a marijuana dealer in order to support her two sons.

Aya Cash, Desmin Borges, Chris Geere, Kether Donohue, You’re the Worst Byron Cohen/FXX You’re the Worst begins by mining familiar rom-com territory: boy and girl meet at a wedding and have what they both believe to be a one-night stand, which obviously becomes something more, and though it eventually grows into a thoughtful exploration of relationships, its premise isn’t what will feel familiar to Shameless fans. In case the show’s title wasn’t enough of an indication, the characters on this show are generally pretty terrible — episodes find them cheating on partners, stealing property, stabbing their spouses, and being relentlessly mean to each other — but You’re the Worst is good about never letting them off the hook for it, and it makes sure they’re always evolving. It’s the aftermath of the crime that Good Girls is interested in, and the different ways the women react to it, such as Beth’s (Hendricks) realization that life as a criminal is preferable to life as a mother struggling to pay the bills.
