Weeds

This new series is a single-camera comedy about a single mother who makes ends meet by selling marijuana in the fictional suburb of Agrestic, California. The series exposes the dirty little secrets that lie behind the pristine lawns and shiny closed doors of homes in the of this gated community. Mary Louise Parker stars as the suburban mom who resorts to selling weed to support her family after her husband unexpectedly dies.

The ten 30 minute episodes of the first season made Weeds a sleeper hit and this quirky series with its quirky theme song ("Little Boxes" by Malvina Reynolds), will continue putting the herb in suburb with its second season premiering this Monday, August 14, 10 PM on Showtime (US).

Highly, highly recommended!

Weeds has won a Golden Globe for Best Actress and has another 2 wins and 5 nominations.
