With the Botwins keeping things low-key while on the run in Washington, Nancy, Andy and Silas take under-the-table jobs at a tony Seattle hotel. In an attempt to get back into the canna-biz, Nancy makes a connection with a no-nonsense supplier. And it soon emerges that life in suburbia is anything but sleepy, with customers cropping up in the most surprising of places. A great ensemble cast and a host of dysfunctional characters make Weeds a highly original, satirical and edgy drama with a great black comic streak.
[Weeds] serves as proof that when a show has a premise as self-limiting as an everyman with a hidden criminal life, the worst thing you can do is let it drag on until it's a sad, dried husk.
