Are you interested in streaming the popular TV series Shameless on Netflix? The US version of the popular TV series premiered in 2011 and the final season aired in 2021. Now you can sit down and enjoy every single season and episode on Netflix. But, what can you do if Shameless is unavailable on Netflix in your country? Is there a way to stream Shameless on Netflix that will give you access to it immediately instead of waiting for months and years? In this article I will show it to you with some easy steps how you can stream all Shameless seasons on Netflix within a few minutes.
Shameless is a series that was developed by John Wells. Considering that it lasted for 11 seasons it turned into the longest running series ever created by Showtime in the USA. It is no wonder so many people are eager to stream this popular series on Netflix! In Shameless we meet Frank Gallagher. He is a father of six, but instead of taking care of his kids, he rather walks around drunk most of the time. As a consequence, Fiona, Phillip, Ian, Debbie, Carl, and Liam (the kids) take care of themselves. This is a comedy series that touches a very sensitive topic with a smile.
This is how you can watch Shameless on Netflix.
There is also a British version (the original) of Shameless that can be streamed on Netflix. If that is what you are interested in streaming I will explain you how to stream that as well.

As I have already mentioned, Surfshark has application for all the big platforms. In your sole goal is to stream Shameless and other TV series and movies on Netflix, the browser extension is the ideal thing to install. Log in to the application/extension with your username and password and get ready to unblock Netflix.
Above you can see that I have the Surfshark extension installed in my Edge browser. They also have similar extensions for Firefox and Chrome.
- Connect to a VPN server in the United States or in the UK.
This will give you a local IP address in the USA or in the UK. If you want to stream all eleven seasons of UK Shameless, connect to a server in the UK. If you want to stream all eleven seasons of the US version of Shameless, connect to a server in the USA. You can stream the first ten seasons of US Shameless on Netflix in the UK as well, but the final season isn’t on UK Netflix yet. - Visit the Netflix website or open the Netflix application.
You can now search for Netflix and stream this dark comedy on Netflix immediately.
That’s it. You are now ready to watch Shameless on Netflix. You should definitely look around on Netflix as you are connected to a server in the USA or in the UK, because you will now also be able to see all the other content available on Netflix in those countries. Did you know that you can use Surfshark also to unblock Netflix content in more than 10 other countries, including Canada, Australia, Japan, Sweden, France, Germany, and Italy? The service can also be used to stream ITV abroad, BBC outside the UK, PeacockTV, ParamountPlus, RaiTV, Cuatro, NRK, and lots of other local TV networks all around the world.
Are there any alternatives to Surfshark?
Would you, for some reason, like to use a different VPN provider than Surfshark? Are there any other alternatives? There are lots of options out there, but many of them are blocked by Netflix and they also have poor customer support, slow servers, and other problems that will make your subscription a nightmare. But, if you really want the name of an alternative to Surfshark that will give you great download speeds, solid customer service, and also access to Netflix in the USA and the UK (plus some more countries), then you could always consider using NordVPN or ExpressVPN instead. Both are great VPNs and they have been in the game for a very long time (much longer than Surfshark). But, instead of living on the success of the past, they are continuously developing and upgrading their servers, making sure that the servers are up to date, that the download speeds are superb, and that the services are good for unblocking popular streaming services such as Netflix and others.
A few words about ExpressVPN.
- ExpressVPN has servers in nearly 100 countries.
- It is the most expensive of the three VPN providers.
- They have blazing speeds and it has been one of the best Netflix VPNs since Netflix started to block VPNs.
- ExpressVPN has live customer service available 24-7, and it is very easy to use.
Just like Surfshark, ExpressVPN has a 30-day full refund policy. If you try it and do not like it, simply ask for a full refund and you will get your money back. In other words, there is no need to worry. You can ask for your money in return anytime within 30 days!
A few words about NordVPN.
- NordVPN is a Panama-based VPN provider with servers in approximately 60 countries.
- NordVPN also has products such as NordPass (password manager) and NordLocker (cloud storage).
- NordVPN is a sponsor of Liverpool FC, and they have more than 12,000,000 users worldwide.
- Their VPN comes with a CyberSec add-on (free) which will help you block malware infected sites, and add an extra layer of security to your online presence.
- NordVPN is normally a bit more expensive than Surfshark, but still cheaper than ExpressVPN.
NordVPN also has a money back guarantee valid for 30-days. There is no need to worry, or as Timon and Pumba would say: Hakuna Matata!
Both NordVPN and ExpressVPN will help you gain access to all the content on Netflix in the UK and in the United States, and they will also give access to many other popular streaming services. Which one will you choose? It is entirely up to you!
What about the free VPN providers?
Are you hesitant paying for a VPN provider? Nobody likes to pay for a service unless it is necessary, that is easy to understand. There are lots of VPN providers claiming to be free, but they are mostly scams and they receive their payment as they spy on your activities, steal your data, and maybe even bring real harm to you.
There are some serious free VPN providers giving you access to a “limited” version of their service, meaning that you can use it for free, but you will only get access to a couple of servers and only have a limited amount of bandwidth at your disposal. The free servers are then extremely lagged and they are normally blocked by Netflix, meaning that they will not give you access to Netflix content in other countries.
Netflix and other streaming services are working hard to block VPN providers. For this reason, it is important to use a VPN specialized in this area and that constantly work at keeping their servers up to date and functional at all times. That is also why I can warmly recommend Surfshark as they have proven themselves awesome for this purpose since the service launched back in 2018.
Are you ready to stream Shameless on Netflix right now? I hope you are.
