I'm currently watching the 5th Season of Weeds, trying to catch up to the new season. I am almost done with the season. I'm not sure how I actually feel about the show although I enjoy watching it. I've come to the realization that it is so much like a daytime soap. There's love affairs, multiple sexual partners, murder, and just stupid decisions. Although for some reason I can't stand soaps but enjoy this show, I think the difference is that soaps have bad actors and all TOO gorgeous people, where Weeds has a wide variety of people and cultures and good acting.
I know that shows are created to entertain and therefore that would be the reason there is an over amount of Drama in the show. Sure lots of people actually have this much drama in their life, but I wonder if to this extent of going from suburban pot selling mother of two, to grow room, to working for "U-turn", to the town of Agrestic or Magestic whichever, burning down and taking her family to the border of California and Mexico to do more illegal things and getting pregnant by a Major in Mexico. Of course that's just the run down. Seems a little much especially for someone who starts of the show a widowed suburban mother. But yet again here I am watching the show and enjoying it.
I myself am a mother of two and find myself disappointed in Nancy and how her children have turned out. I can't believe some of the things she has done. Although the woman has balls now with some of the things she has done and has become smarter in the drug world she has failed as a mother. P.S. I very much dislike the character named Celia Hodes. Well that is my opinion of the show thus far and yes I'm going to continue to watch. Thanks for listening.
*** Ok so I just finished Season 5 and you can add son is now a murderer to this endless list of drama. sure the bitch Pilar deserved what she got big time, but still a 14 year old killing someone, yup add it to the list.
