    You've got to scratch your head and wonder how this show is still on the air. How can they still create a compelling product rehashing the same suburban mom drug dealer story yet again? Well here's the catch; that has nothing to do with Weeds anymore. Two thumbs up to the writers here for taking a leap of faith the past few seasons and drastically changing the nature of the show.

Well here's the catch; that has nothing to do with Weeds anymore. Two thumbs up to the writers here for taking a leap of faith the past few seasons and drastically changing the nature of the show. This season we are treated to post-prison Nancy. Andy is largely unchanged while Cylus and Shane have matured quite well. In the past the show was about Nancy taking ridiculous risks to serve her family and of course herself. This season we are treated to the opposite scenario; Nancy is to be cared for. Nancy needs saving. Whether or not it will work by seasons end is yet to be seen. However 4 episodes in, while I haven't laughed hysterically or anything, I still find myself interested.… Expand

    Weeds is an entirely different show than earlier seasons. The 'widowed suburban mother selling drugs to support her suburban life' plot has evolved into a show about to nothing more than the current lives of eccentric characters. Most of this time would be the tragic final stages of an exhausted series. But it works for Weeds because it remains smart as ever and it's carefully andWeeds is an entirely different show than earlier seasons. The 'widowed suburban mother selling drugs to support her suburban life' plot has evolved into a show about to nothing more than the current lives of eccentric characters. Most of this time would be the tragic final stages of an exhausted series. But it works for Weeds because it remains smart as ever and it's carefully and consistently developed its main characters, especially Nancy Botwin, to the point you can't help but not mind the feeling that the show is healthy and happily bobbing before its inevitable demise to the deeps.… Expand

    This season promises to vamp up the lack luster of last season! The characters have grown up (Shane looks so old!) and they haven't seen Nancy in a long time and judging from the first episode its going to be fantastic!

    It never gets old watching craaaaaazy Nancy getting herself into and out of trouble. Plus, it takes place in my favorite city this season. I still wish Celia would come back though...

    I really like Parker! The stories are good, but I get a bit tired of the way they always almost "make it" only to fall back down. They have become (always were?) predictable. I miss some of the quirky actors from the early shows like Perkins, too. None of this stops me from watching every episode.

    Mercifully, it seems as if tonight's episode will plant the seeds for a rebirth.

    It feels fresh and amusing. "True Blood" did a similar fast-forward, and both have benefited.

    Tonight's episode feels like a reset, a fresh start for the characters but if they just lapse back into their old ways, I'm not sure what the point of another season of this show will be. And yet, if they do not return to selling drugs, some viewers may be disappointed.
