Shameless is not really comedy but it has it all: drama, violence, humour, disfunctional families, alcoholism.

As this threads popped back up
I personally have never been one to like any of those things, but i think your assertion that he's the "lads mag" comedian of choice probably has alot to do with the fact that he's just popular with alot of people.
I reject the "because he's dead" bollocks as well. That business isnt romantic its just sad.
