‘Weeds’ Review: “A Beam of Sunshine”
Who got smoked? It's the question we're seeing plastered all around town, and the one we've been asking ourselves ever since 'Weeds' seventh season finale "Do Her/Don't Do Her" put Nancy Botwin (Mary-Louise Parker) in the crosshairs, before cutting ominously to black with a bang. So, how would you like a fresh crop of spoilers in advance of 'Weeds' eighth, and final season?
Whether or not you think that 'Weeds' has grown a bit wild during its run and should probably be pruned before the quality really dips, there's no arguing that the show makes some impressive art and promotional poster campaigns. How could you not, when you've still got the beautiful (and almost-50!) Mary Louise-Parker as your lead? As we get ready to light up season 8, take a look at the latest promotional posters!
One might not find it so easy to connect Matt LeBlanc to marijuana (okay, we're ignoring a REALLY obvious joke there), but leave it to Showtime to do the work for us! With both hit comedies 'Episodes' and 'Weeds' set to roll up their brand new seasons on the pay cable network this summer, it's high time we got down to business with some actual footage!
Ah, 4/20. That noblest of holidays where we gather with our closest friends, prepare the traditional feast of junk food, gather around the fire and...you know something? We're hungry. Wait, what were we talking about again? Oh, of course! Our friends at Showtime and 'Weeds' have a special message for us today!
While it's unlikely that anything will ever top the "huh?" moment that followed 'The Sopranos' cutting to black at the end of its series finale, the final moments of 'Weeds' Season 7 left more than a few viewers uncertain as to the fate of Nancy Botwin, or the rest of her family. So with details on Season 8 light thus far, who was at the other end of 'Weeds'' smoking gun?
There are still quite a a few questions to be answered when Showtime's long-running pot comedy 'Weeds' returns for an eighth, and potentially final season on July 8, and details are being kept tight, but a fresh offering from the garden might be just what we need to get back in the high spirits.
Well, we already know when our favorite serial killer 'Dexter' is set to make his season 7 return, along with the CIA drama of 'Homeland' but what exactly are we supposed to do until the end of September? Watch brand new seasons of drug-dealing comedy 'Weeds' and meta British adaptation humor 'Episodes?' Don't mind if we do!
