Can't Get Enough "Weeds"
Wonderfully funny show with some dark comedy and a plot line that twists and turns. Perfectly written and acted. Can't wait for the third season to be released. I can't wait to see what happened after the perfectly devised cliffhanger to season two.

Ha ha ha worth its weight in weed
I bought season 1 on a whim. watched it all in 1 day and the next day bought season 2 and watched it all! It is so funny and just off the wall this is what you wish suburbia was really like! I cant wait till the next season comes out on DVD. It is really my new favorite show. I wish i had Showtime just for this!

Welcome to the land of Ambien, Prozac, etc.
Be warned: this series is a lot of fun. I downloaded all the episodes in just a few days. Laughed and laughed. No, I was not high.

You could substitute the pot in this series with purebred dogs, racing cars, esoteric coffee, whatever. Weed is not central to the storytelling. It's all about the endearing collection of screw-ups!

OK, that's preposterous. It's also about the pot. The high tech grower's conference with the flowery interchangeable buzz marketing terms was hilarious. Riffing here: "It's a teutonic buzz, like a horde of barbarians flooding your mind to a techno soundtrack. Well-organized, disciplined muchies, with a clean finish." (If I were clever that would also refer to this series, but it doesn't - was just silliness.)

** Great soundtrack! **

Anyone in California has seen a few of the planned purgatories that Agrestic so perfectly portrays. You buy into the dream thinking that comfort equals happiness, and the emptiness starts to gnaw at you. Enter our heroine.

You know, I never understood Kevin Nealon while he was on Saturday Night live, but here, he's outrageously entertaining playing the character of shallow Councilman Doug. I shouldn't single him out. Elizabeth Perkins is wonderful. Uncle Andy's lessons about life (all learned the hard way, apparently). Actually, practically everyone is great, which is weird.

Initially when I watched Mary-Louise Parker, I wondered who she kept reminding me of... and then it hit me: she was precisely mimicking Bradley Whitford, with whom she co-starred in West Wing, according to IMDB. Or is Bradley copying her? Will have to see them pre-2000. It's just like Geena Davis and Jeff Goldblum. (Update: in Season 3, she loses the Bradley speak. Good move, I think.)

If you are considering watching this, download an episode. Even if the drug premise offends you, the show is just too good to miss. Another of the great new cable series with wonderful characters & writing.
