The central Gallagher family of Frank, Fiona, Lip, Ian, Carl, Debbie, and Liam have each received their fair share of screen time over the past nine seasons of Shameless, but it's always been clear that Fiona is meant to be the star of Showtime's hit comedy-drama series. Fans have seen her fall in and out of love countless times and watched as she succeeded or failed horribly at a variety of different business ventures. Viewers have witnessed her attempt to rise above her circumstances and find happiness, and groaned as she was met with or helped create yet another roadblock which kept her from reaching her potential. All of the Gallagher children have gone through their fair share of emotional roller coasters since the show began over eight years ago, but Fiona's dramatic storyline has definitely been one of the most captivating.
