By Jace(jace@televisionaryblog.com) What a weird, strange journey it's been this season on Weeds. Between pregnancies, marriages, assassinations, overdoses, teenage STDs, and thievery, Season Five of Showtime's dark comedy Weeds has been a sometimes bizarre and uneven mix of shifting timeframes, over the top characte...

Grade: A+ "Weeds." We loved "Weeds" even as it kind of hit a creative slide last summer, but as this season fumbles to conclusion, the show's become a ...

By Jace(jace@televisionaryblog.com) Welcome to your Monday morning television briefing. I'm back from vacation so there's loads of television-related headlines to catch up on. Buckle your seatbelts; it's going to be a bumpy ride! Weeds star Mary-Louise Parker has put those rumors that she's leaving the Showtime comedy ser...

 KS By Justin Hilley After purposely burning her family's house down at the end of season three, Nancy Botwin, the pot-dealing suburban widow played effortlessly and acutely by Mary-Louise Parker, takes her family to the Californian/Mexican border where ...

Last season was all about rebooting “Weeds.” Widowed drug dealer Nancy relocated her family south, near the Mexican border, and became embroiled with the Mexican mafia. As the storyline darkened–not illogical for a show about a mom who deals drugs, ... TV Review: 'Weeds' Season Five HitFix

 CA Indeed, at times the dour tone makes its lead-in, "Weeds," seem positively cheerful by comparison. While the title character is consistently rough and the language blue, in subsequent episodes (Showtime sent six out for review) the series increasingly ...

At the end of Season Four . . . *On the border, Doug and Andy were becoming successful in their immigrant-smuggling business.

By Jace(jace@televisionaryblog.com) Is it just me or has Nancy Botwin become really unlikable? What always worked for me on Showtime's dark comedy series Weeds was the fact that while Nancy seemed to floundering morally, she was always attempting to keep her family together in the face of increasing adversity, trying to hol...

By georegb3 I do agree that Celia plays a vital role to the show but the character arc for her has gotten a bit out of control. I started watching a few episodes again between classes and thought I had spoke before thinking. Celia, I hope, will change a bit during the next season. I liked her in the first few sea...

By noreply@blogger.com (Paul Levinson) Meanwhile, Esteban's henchman shows him a photo of Nancy and Till. Esteban wants to send a car to pick up Nancy. She offers to drive. She tells Esteban she loves him. Why on Earth is Nancy driving to her certain death? She's now in Mexico with Esteban, who still loves her, but is sad, because he knows he has no choice but to kill her. Nancy tries to deny that was she was Till's informant. Esteban puts the photo of Till and Nancy on the table. Nancy reaches into her bag ... and produces a photo of her own. See also: Showtime's Sassy Hour of Sin ...

By Media Maven Oh, how the mighty have fallen!  Again, its too early to count this show out yet, but after last year’s disappointing season, last night’s premiere was not the auspicious beginning for which I was hoping, despite the fact that it was Showtime’s most watched season premiere ever.  Picking up where last season left off, we find the Botwin clan on the run to Judah’s grandmother’s house in SoCal, Celia Hodes in prison, and the two sole remaining comedic characters, Dean and Doug, still blazin up in alleyways.  This episode had essentially two story lines: the A line, following Nancy, Andy and the kids, and the B line, following Celia, Doug, Dean and Isabelle.  Let’s break down each: ————————————————————————————-   [read the full post]

By Myles The other side of the storyline stays in Agrestic/Majestic, where we find that Celia is in a bit over her head when it comes to her role in the drug scandal. Her attempts to pin it all on Nancy don’t turn out as planned, of course, and with rapid fire precision all of the other key players (Doug, D...
