Description:
Funnier, darker and more daring, the second season of this acclaimed Showtime series reaches a higher ground. Golden Globe winner Mary-Louise Parker stars as Nancy Botwin, the soccer mom who had to learn how to deal - pot, that is - after the death of her husband. Now, her business is a hit. But keeping up with the neighbors in this suburban utopia isn't easy. She's joined up with a few of her closest friends, and together they're facing life's highs and lows - because even in paradise, nobody's perfect. Don't miss WEEDS, an addictive comedy, the highest grade TV has to offer.
Amazon.com:
The first season of Weeds ended with a shocker: Nancy (Mary-Louise Parker) found a dreamy new boyfriend, but he turned out to be a DEA agent (Martin Donovan). Luckily, she manages to find some pretty creative ways to 'deal' with it. Despite that new obstacle, she decides it’s also time to 'grow' the business to higher levels, and all these risky moves lead up to another fabulous season finale cliff-hanger. Elsewhere in suburban utopia, comic relieving brother-in-law Andy (Justin Kirk) tries to dodge his army commitments by joining Rabbi school, while the hilarious Doug (Kevin Nealon) battles it out with Celia (Elizabeth Perkins) to maintain power over the Agrestic City Council. Plot aside, Season 2 of Weeds took this potentially great show to the next level. No matter how hard they tried in the first season, the show’s makers had a heck of a time trying to shake the impression that they were mimicking the edginess of HBO’s original programming. (Some might have gone as far as to say they were trying a little too hard.) This time around, the characters and the story have grown into their own skins, and they offer something much more authentic and convincing. The second season also starts a great new tradition: Malvina Reynolds ‘s 'Little Boxes' is still the opening theme song, but it is performed by a different artist for each episode (from Elvis Costello to The Shins). Just one more thing to keep us 'addicted.' --Jordan Thompson

Rating:  - Great Deal for the Green!
I held off on purchasing this for a long time, but finally got an outstanding price. Perfection!
Rating: - More of the PRETENTIOUS fools
This show is highly entertaining so of course I am onboard for season two. The plot thickens. (You need to watch season one in order to fully understand season two.) The drama and comedy are well written. I think this adult program is one where you can kick back and just enjoy the show. Makes your own problems look trite. Enjoy!
Rating: - Very funny, very entertaining series!
I didn't know what to expect when I initially bought both Seasons one and Season two. I was very delighted after watching Season one and couldn't wait to get into Season two. The characters are solid and couldn't have been cast any better. It never hurts either to have someone as sexy as Mary-Louise Parker as the main character. Everyone in my office now loves this series and I have already ordered season three. Can't wait for it to arrive.
Rating:  - Nancy is not a good person
It's amazing, I guess the writers figured by episode 8 that the Peter Scottson character was too like-able and elicited too much sympathy that the writers intentionally wrote him in to be a racist and vindictive on the fly. It wasn't cool and didn't flow well. I supposed they miscast him with Martin Donovan from the start, an inherently like-able actor. It was about episode 8 that I wanted something very bad to happen to Nancy and her entire sanctimonious and whiny family. None of them are good ... Read More
Rating:  - Terrific second season
The conceit of "Weeds" (suburban mom turns to selling pot) seems like it would be difficult to sustain over time. Fortunately, the second season of "Weeds" pulls it off successfully by being funny but also keeping to the original theme. As the season opens, Nancy decides to end her relationship with Peter when she discovers that he is a DEA agent; he seems oblivious to the fact that she's a drug dealer, but this relationship will continue to haunt her throughout the season. Another character, Celia, ... Read More
