Synopsis

This intelligent comedy stars Mary Louise Parker (ANGELS IN AMERICA) as Nancy Botwin, a recently widowed mother of two who finds herself in difficult financial straits. Her ingenious solution is to become the local pot dealer. Nancy's business really takes off, but she struggles to maintain her normal life and keep her secret from best friend and PTA president Celia (Elizabeth Perkins, BIG, MUST LOVE DOGS). Tonye Patano (LITTLE MANHATTAN) plays Nancy's streetwise dealer, with whom she has a tenuous friendship.

4.0 out of 5 stars Put aside your preconceptions, 18 Oct 2007
By Robert Frampton "Rob Frampton" (Dartford, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
This gem of a show from US cable should be high on your 'must see' list. If it's not, is it because it's (ostensibly) about an all-American mom surviving her bereavement by selling pot, perchance? Tish and pish!
Mary Louise Parker (surely one of the sexiest women on the planet... oh, and also one of the best actors on US TV) gives a superb performance, elevating already brilliantly written scripts to a level of black comedy rarely seen on British TV. Each half hour episode runs the gamut from phone sex with a deaf girl, through setting up a fake bakery (a 'fakery' if you will) to shooting marauding mountain lions in the face. Oh, and you'll laugh too.
To complement this, Elizabeth Pekins's performance as the sexually-frustrated, bitchy, PTA president mom-from-hell almost steals the show.
Bring on series 2 right now.

5.0 out of 5 stars Going up in smoke..., 8 Sep 2007
By Antyllus (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
Really one of the best TV series about at this moment - with plenty of real humour, some gritty scenes, tongue in cheek dialogue, and more spliffs in hand than one thought possible.

I couldn't stop watching it, so sat up one night through all the episodes, and promptly recommended it to friends the next morning, who are now equally hooked on it..

The series benefits from some really good and observant writing, lifting the lid on our suburban foibles and facades, to reveal what one never expected.

The story of the housewife who is forced to make a living somehow, to keep up with the rest of the neighbourhood. Nailbiting when you think her entire business enterprise could go up in smoke around her with a few false moves. Strong support from all the characters, who really seem to be enjoying playing their characters. And, the quirky music helps too.

Praises galore...

4.0 out of 5 stars BEWARE: you will get addicted to Weeds!!!, 5 Feb 2008
By Louise Amkaer (Greenland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Her husband dies of a heart attack while jogging and Nancy is left as a stay-at-home mom with two sons, a huge house, leased car, and no income. The solution to this conundrum: Nancy becomes the drug dealer of choice for inhabitants of lovely, suburban Agrestic.

The stroll down a tight rope high in the circus tent has only just begun for Nancy as she tries to balance an business (selling weed and a bakery/fakery), her family (sexually active teenage son and 11-year-old son grieving out loud plus slagger brother-in-law), and of course her lively neighbours including Chairman of the PTA, a very creative accountant, and her supplier.

Oh yes!! "Weeds" is hilarious!!! Be prepared to laugh and cry when you watch the series.

Louise.
