* ALighterShadeOfGrey: He's an awful Father, but Lip gives the feint praise that Frank's "the good parent" compared to Monica. Justified assessment as Monica frequently abandons her children, and when she was present she traumatized them with manic bipolar episodes. At least Frank never outright abandons his kids.

* AdaptationalJerkass: Although the [[Series/ShamelessUK original incarnation]] of Frank was still a [[ItsAllAboutMe self-serving]], [[AbusiveParents abusive]], [[TheAlcoholic permanently drunk]] [[TheLoad waste of space]], he was often depicted as a victim of his circumstances rather than their cause and any problems he created were generally accidental. This version is [[VillainProtagonist actively making life worse]] for his family by doing things like using his kids names for credit card scams and calling CPS to force them to let hims stay with them making him [[HateSink even less sympathetic]].
