Another hit from Showtime (Dexter being one of them). Weeds, from the start, pulls you in with such immense power, that it is unfortunate it gets a little weaker is later seasons. Weeds’ blunt and sometimes dark humor really delivers. With a run time of 30 mins. for each episode, there isn’t time for it to drag on.
The cast is delightful. Each character progresses throughout each season. Mary-Louise Parker is absolutely spectacular as a failing mother in the drug dealing business.
With such a dark subject, it’s amazing they can be so light with it. Also, I must note how every episode the intro song is sung by a different artist.
