“Bar Rescue: The Alibi” (Shameless, Season 8, 2017)

When Jon Taffer, host of Bar Rescue, followed the Shameless Twitter account, an idea sparked to create a story extension where we combined the two worlds! One Twitter DM turned into several pitches with Shameless creator John Wells and then his writing staff and four weeks later we were all filming in Burbank on the Warner Bros lot.
