In January 2020, the series was renewed for its eleventh and final season to consist of 12 episodes and was scheduled to premiere in summer 2020. However, filming and the premiere date were pushed back due to the
COVID-19 pandemic, and filming instead began in September 2020 and wrapped March 2021. On December 14, 2020, Showtime announced a six-episode limited series retrospective that would air during season 11 called
Shameless Hall of Shame; it contains new and original
Shameless scenes juxtaposed with a retrospective look at each character's journey during the prior 10 seasons: • Episode 1: Ian & Mickey: Daddy Issues (aired December 27, 2020) • Episode 2: Kev & V: God Doesn't Give with Both Hands (aired January 3, 2021) • Episode 3: Lip: Once Upon a Phillip Gallagher (aired January 17, 2021) • Episode 4: Debbie, Carl & Liam: They Grow Up So Fast (aired January 24, 2021) • Episode 5: Fiona: Go Fiona On Them (aired February 21, 2021) • Episode 6: Frank: Ghosts of Gallagher Past (aired February 28, 2021) ==Reception==
