I guess weeds has been running for a while now. They are getting ready to start a new season on August 16, 2010. I had no idea what a great show I was missing. I didn't have showtime and I can't remember ever hearing anyone talk about it so I had no reason to try to watch it. Well, I talked my husband into ordering Showtime so I could see the last season of The Tudors which I had gotten hooked on when I order the first 3 seasons on Netflix. When I went through the last Tudors season in three evenings I was in a funk - I love when I fall in love with a TV show - it happens so rarely these days. Usually every new show turns out to be a bunch of rehashed crap. Because the Tudors was such an amazing series I decided to go through the first episode of all of the Showtime series. The first one was Weeds. I watched the first episode and was cracking up, decided to watch the second and I was hooked. I watched all 5 seasons in the past week - now I'm all caught up and ready for the new Season. I think I will record it and watch the whole season at one time instead of in half hour increments. I absolutely love this show. Funny, serious, quirky and just enough sex to get you going.
" It's been a wild ride from desperate pot-selling suburban widow to cartel concubine and politician's wife. Now Nancy is put to the ultimate test of motherhood: protecting her family. Her kids keep her on her toes, while she keeps wacky, lovesick brother-in-law Andy on his. And even when she goes into hiding in everyday suburban America, Nancy's sardonic and fearless wit shine through."
