Weeds - Season 1 Reviews

The summer season brings with it a drought of television shows, so when my husband saw "Weeds: Season 1" available at the video store, he brought home the first disc with several episodes on it. — — About Weeds — This Showtime series has an interesting premise: a housewife in uber-suburbia turns drug dealer after her husband dies, leaving her with a limited income. The show appealed to me for several reasons: first, as a woman who lives in the ultimate suburban wasteland full of pretty houses, the intro sequence featuring the song "Little Boxes" drew me right in. I love… read full review »

This show is awesome. I'm not a pot smoker or anything, but I still constantly watch this show. It's addicting, and you really can't wait to see what'll happen next! Though I don't have shotime or cable even, I still try to watch it as soon as it comes out. I'm always disappointed when I come to the end of the season and have no more episodes to watch. Yes, it's a lot shorter than any other TV show, but a lot happens in 12 episodes. It's amazing! I love it! Something that I can actually say I'll watch over and over… read full review »

Weeds is "da" bomb! This show is centered around a suburban family that has gotten hooked up in the drug trade. You guessed it, Marijuana! LOL She is a widow with 2 children and a mooching brother ( He does have her back for whatever)! This show is really taking off. Nancy has done drive bys and hung out with gangsters. In this season she even has her own grow weed house. Thi show is a must see. All the characters in this show are extremely… read full review »

I was prepared to hate this tv show.  I love Mary-Louise Parker, but wasn't sure how she'd do in Weeds.  The show is hilarious!  The cast is wonderful, and diverse.  I love Parker's dealer - she is a force to be reckoned with!  I would recommend this show to anyone with a sense of humor.  There is drama, profanity, and sexual situations, too, but the characters get into the most hilarious predicaments. … read full review »

Weeds is a dark, edgy comedy about a suburban mother who secretly deals pot to support her family after the death of her husband.  While there is much to laugh about in every episode, there is also a lot in the characters that the viewers can relate and connect to, making it also a compelling drama.  Season 1 is definitely worth the buy as each episode is worth of rewatching. —… read full review »

It seems that all the great writers in Hollywood are now working in TV. Movies all seem to cater to the lowest common denominator, while the TV shows are getting better. Weeds is a bit more shallow than some of the dramas/dark comedies (like Six Feet Under, Dead Like Me, Farscape, Buffy and Sopranos), but for pure entertainment it ranks right up there with Sex and the… read full review »

I am an avid TV on DVD watcher.  I ordered Seasons 1 & 2 of Weeds and watched them every night until I was through.  It only took a week to get through both seasons.  It is a wonderfully written, funny, and smart show.  I told all my friends how much I love, love, love Weeds.  I can't wait for my Season 3 to… read full review »

This is an amazing, highly additive show.  I will watch the entire season in one sitting.  The show is unpredicatable - very funny, but dramatic at the same time.  I cannot wait for Season 3 to come out on… read full review »

This show has one of the most original plot concepts in recent years. A widowed mother who turns to selling pot to support her family? That is genius my friends. This show has great writing, good characters and some fine acting. I really enjoy every episode and my only complaint is the short seasons. —… read full review »
