“Weeds” on Showtime
My favorite new television program this year by far has to be Weeds on the Showtime network. As luck would have it Comcast Cable offered my household the channel for only an additional 5 bucks a month, and we jumped at the chance. Turns out most of their programming is garbage, but this show made it all worth it.
Mary-Louise Parker is definitely not bad for the eyes, and she plays a upper middle class housewife that turns to selling pot around the community to make ends meet after her husband suddenly passes away. Kevin Nealon turns out some good performances as her reefer addict accountant, and Romany Malco (who was fantastic in The 40 Year Old Virgin) also does fine work.
I don’t want to reveal too much but hopefully the completed first season will be released on DVD soon for those in need — the show’s website is also well done and ahead of the game with cast podcasts and downloads.
yeah man i thought you’d dig it — we shall see how it develops into next season.
i’m totally with you on some MLP skin, but she might have one of those “i’m the star so i don’t get naked” clauses.
when it the new season of weeds going to start. looking forward to hear from you.
yeah, weeds is pretty cool. i ended up BTing the entire first season while i was unemployed.
it’s no SFU at its peak or anything, but hopefully they’ll let it grow a bit (so to speak) in the 2nd season.
speaking of growth, MLP needs to get naked at some point.
