Weeds
Season One
A superb comedy
about a suburban mother turned marijuana dealer.
How does that hit
you?
After her husband's unexpected death and subsequent financial
woes, suburban mom Nancy Botwin (Mary Louise Parker) embraces a
new profession: the neighborhood pot dealer. As it seems like
everyone secretly wants what she's selling -- even city
councilman Doug Wilson (Kevin Nealon) -- Nancy is faced with
keeping her family life in check and her enterprise a secret
from her best friend/PTA president, Celia Hodes (Elizabeth
Perkins).
Usually the first
season of even the best series shows some need for growth or at
the very least, refinement. Weeds,
however, has none of that. Great stories, acting and
writing make this one of the best new programs of the year.
