Every character bursts with life here, in what may be the most fully realized show on TV. [13 Aug 2007]

None of its quirky charm and tone-shifting mix of comedy and drama has lagged since we last witnessed Nancy's precarious situation. Read full review

Charlie McCollum

Jul 11, 2013

While Botwin's crime world is the engine that drives "Weeds," there is much more to the show than that. At its core, it's a subtle satire of suburban life, politics, social mores and race. [13 Aug 2007]

Zap2it (Inside the Box) Daniel Fienberg

Jul 11, 2013

Always a 30-minute show with a rich vein of drama, Weeds feels darker than ever this season. Read full review

Rob Owen

Jul 11, 2013

Parker, so unlikably strident on "The West Wing," is a revelation in "Weeds," making Nancy sympathetic even when she's making terrible decisions. Read full review

Doug Elfman

Jul 11, 2013

The new episodes find the upper-middle-class mother of two evolving into a gangster. This is a good move for the show. [13 Aug 2007]

Alan Sepinwall

Jul 11, 2013

It has so much going for it on paper -- notably Mary-Louise Parker as a pot-dealing soccer mom -- but the series' creators remain so pleased with themselves that they're rarely as funny as they obviously think they are. [13 Aug 2007]

I liked this season, but not as much as season two. But I wouldn't rate it an 8 and put it with season 7. This isn't really a review? My ratings are for me anyway. :)

This season has got too complicated for itself with too many characters and our leading actress being stuck in the role of being someones 'bi##h'. Not as good as the first two.
