Et on mettra dedans les dialogues les plus cons qu'on puisse écrire, les jokes les plus débiles et les situations les plus bouffonnes, une sorte de croisement entre Benny Hill et Madame est servie. Mais avec de l'herbe dedans. Ouuééé trop bien. Juste un truc : il s'agit d'une sitcom version longue et on a oublié les rires enregistrés. On est vraiment trop des cons.… Full Review »

Unusually for such a successful show, all the characters in Weeds are morally compromised - a mixed bag of perverts, misogynists, criminals and narcissists, ALL of whom are spectacularly selfish and/or self-absorbed.

There are periods throughout the series where the show seemed to be in a lull for several episodes at a time, but eventually it always found it's stride and left me wanting more. The characters are entertaining, especially Andy, and I enjoyed that the show doesn't even pretend to take itself seriously. The recurring theme of being white and privileged and expecting everyone to take care of your problems for you makes for a lot of comedic moments. Also, it's definitely not glamorizing weed so don't feel like this is a show that you can't admit to watching. I do wish that the season 7 finale had been the ending though, season 8 was pretty weak and didn't add much to the story.… Full Review »
