    One of the best seasons of television I have ever seen. Great cast, well-written characters, lots of laugh out loud moments and genuinely engaging storylines all the way through.

    Never laughed during the the first 2 shows of season 4. Guess it's a drama no with little quips

    Anyone wasting the precious Time of Their Lives on inanity like this - really really needs to get a life and get a grip - the country slid into decadent hell 15 years ago - and that's funny? ask all the children on antidepressants.

    This is a tremendously entertaining show and Mary Louise Parker is hella gorgeous (whoever thinks she is ugly must have horrible taste), she's the hottest mom on TV.

    Fantastic show. It's fantasy, people. And the mother is headed for a bad end...

    The NECESSARY thing about showing a dude getting shot in the military grounds is that one NEEDS discipline in the army! If you goof around, you get shot.

    No, a show about smoking weed, telling random stories and about masturbation is interesting. It breaks up and relieves tension, telling a comical, spontaneous, and humorous aspect from a human being's point of view, yet it can also show subtly the problems of humans in society and human nature. However, this show has gotten really OC-like, with all of their unnecessary melodrama and No, a show about smoking weed, telling random stories and about masturbation is interesting.

    *Weeds* is the best send-up of suburban life that we've seen on television, perhaps ever, certainly since *All in the Family*. With great writing, and a superb cast, not to mention this new take on Malvina Reynolds' anthem (a different performer doing the song every week -- way to go for helping out the Reynolds' estate!), and the plot twists with the DEA agent and Conrad, *Weeds* is the best send-up of suburban life that we've seen on television, perhaps ever, certainly since *All in the Family*.

    No, dude, it is very funny, in a subtle, but intelligent way. Mary-Louis Parker is hot! I would pork her even if she was 40. Well....that said, I'm looking forward to the next episodes....and y'all have got to PICK UP THE SEASON 1 EPISODES to know where the show was and how great it is.

    Anyone notice that season 3 is starting to go downhill? it's a show about weed, but the selling of it isn't very interesting, and they have andy and shane not doing anything. plus silas is whiny, and the mother is beginning to be so as well.

    This show will turn around. both this and californication are good shows. let's settle the dispute. yes, the andy in the military witnesses a dude gets show is unnecessary, but the fact remains that this show is still classic by the fact that no studio would air this because it's a show about smoking illegal substances.

    Yeah! What good would be a tv show about a bunch of stoners telling random stories about how they got f'd up on weed on problems of their own like normal people, when we can see random guns from drug dealers, telling us how bad it is to deal weed, that normal weed smokers aren't as chill like they are on Friday?

    No, you guys are retarded. This show is still great, and Nancy is still hot! If only Snoop could help get another appearance, and if Nancy can get her weed dealing to be big again, then she will be the #1 dealer in America. Scarface-style, but lady like.

    This show is as addictive as its name. Started liking it, and now I`m hooked, but in spite of it I don`t understand how the characters got so obnoxious and foul. Thought Nancy was likable in the beginning, now it turns out she`s a selfish liar, making decisions no viewer could possibly find reasonable! As for the directing, why is everyone pronouncing their lines so slowly and petulantly, This show is as addictive as its name.

    In better moments, "Weeds" proves small kerflops can be made interesting and fun to watch. In lesser moments, not so.
  2. "Weeds" is colossally great... a series far better than its premise and utterly essential for devotees of smart, entertaining television.

    There's enough to enjoy in Weeds that you could get a contact high just by tuning in.
