Weeds Reviews

Weeds is a very, very funny show about a suburban mom whose husband dies and she turns to selling drugs.  The acting is brilliant, the writing is hysterical, and so far in season two, they have managed to keep it going. The series is a satire of suburban life with lots of laughs to make it go down easier. 

If you take it to seriously or too literally, you will hate it.

There is nudity, violence and language, so if those things offend you stay away.

For my tastes, it is one of the best shows on tv today.

Imagine yourself as a straight-laced, 30-something suburban housewife whose loving husband suddenly dies. Left with what so many Americans these days are facing - massive debt - what are your choices? Having left behind the world of paid employment years ago to raise children and run a household, you don't have what most people think of as marketable skills or experience. What's a woman to do?

This is the premise of Showtime's series, Weeds. Mary Louise Parker plays Nancy Botwin, a recently widowed mom whose mourning for her dead husband is interrrupted by the harsh reality that there's no money...

I love weeds it is the best show ever made! ROCK ON WEEDS~

Since we did not have Showtime last year,  I bought WEEDS - SEASON 1 on DVD,  because  so many people told me "You just have to see that, or have you caught Weeds yet?"   After receiving it, I, of course, showed my husband & we started watching it.  What a funny funny, really relateable show. 

We could not stop watching it & were very bummed that we were able to view the whole season in just 2 nights.  Being just 1/2 hour episodes, they go very fast.  If it was up to me I would make each episdoe 1 hour long. 

Because We just had to continue with it, we now have Showtime  to view...
