Widowed suburbanite Nancy Botwin (Mary-Louise Parker) starts growing and selling marijuana to make enough money to support her family after her husband's unexpected death leaves her in big debt. Nancy has associates in her pot-growing business, which include Andy, who is her brother-in-law, and pot-smoking City Councilman Doug Wilson. Then there's the business of trying to keep the whole thing secret from people like her neighbor Celia.

Critics Consensus

Weeds' mellow buzz gives way to constant peril in its third year -- luckily the series remains a delight, thanks to a talented ensemble spearheaded by the thrillingly unpredictable Mary-Louise Parker.

The near-saving grace remains the quality of the actors... Beyond that, however, the show is ultimately a pretty thin porridge -- one whose plaudits have consistently exceeded its merits. Go to Full Review

B
Credibility-stretching plotlines involving foot-fetish porn and Mary-Kate Olsen as a Jesus-loving pot dealer may be hilarious, but their inclusion makes the series' pleasures more and more guilty. Go to Full Review
Nisha Gopalan Entertainment Weekly 11/19/2018
I'm not exactly sure how I feel about Weeds' reliance on going to absurd extremes. With all due respect to Justin Kirk, the zany roles here come off like easy punch lines. Go to Full Review
Matt Paproth PopMatters 11/19/2018
Romany Malco's performance as Conrad is a high point, and he has terrific chemistry with Parker, which would be sorely missed in later seasons. Go to Full Review
Anthony Venutolo Newark Star-Ledger 11/19/2018
It remains a treat to hear the latest odd way Parker has chosen to deliver each of her lines... Elizabeth Perkins and, especially (and surprisingly), Kevin Nealon carry the comedy water even when the show around them has gone to pot. Go to Full Review

05/06/2017 Season 3 went into freefall total yuk??acting sophomoric, writing shallow, very little in the way of subtle humor that made the first 2 seasons 4-5s! Did the writer(s)leave??? I really felt sorry for the actors having to live(and act!) Thru one painful scene after another...and then , there's the 'pro' critics who gave this banal adventure higher...or even good...ratings. Definitely know who was on...weeds. See more 05/05/2017 They sure knew how to write themselves into a corner. The grim humour of the previous season still holds, but the drama has lost some of its flair. And now that *SPOILERS* all major characters are in the drug business, and the entire town has been set ablaze, the show does not have anywhere to go. Judging from the ratings of the later seasons, that proved to be the case. Still, it was fun while it lasted. See more 01/19/2014 The story is still fascinating, and all kinds of drama is still going on, but Weeds is overdue for a reboot. See more dylan w @dylanwing 01/02/2014 Not as good as the first 2 but it's better than some of it's future seasons. Nancy started to get really weird and I stopped liking her because she does some crazy crap that does not make any since. I'm not sure if Nancy went retarded after season 2 but there is something seriously wrong with her. See more Read all reviews
