Was Nancy always self-destructive/reckless?

Or did she have survivor's guilt or PTSD after her first husband passed away?

Mary Louise Parker wasn't as good as I remember in Weeds

This might be controversial, but the more I rewatch Weeds, the less impressed I am with Mary-Louise Parker’s performance. That’s not to say she isn’t a good actress, but compared to someone like Elizabeth Perkins, her acting doesn’t quite measure up. She has some great moments—like her scenes with Judah or when she threatens Celia—but overall, she comes across as a bit stale and uninspired. Maybe it’s because Nancy is just so unlikable and that's just how she is supposed to act.

Last husband

I wish we had seen Nancy with her last husband. I wanted to see her in love and happy. I still loved the ending I wouldn't change that

Going through the entire series again and on season 7....

And did anyone else think that Nancy constantly choosing Silas over Shane for business was an incredibly bad idea?? All Silas did was think with his emotions and make bad decisions.....Shane was actually the smartest out of them all....

Is there a difference ?

I always watched Weeds ( for the first time and after ) on Hulu. Now that it isn’t there I bought it on Amazon prime . I swear there are parts on Amazon prime that were not on Hulu. Is that true or did I just imagine in ? I’ve watched it multiple times on Hulu so I don’t think I just missed it.

Has anyone else seen more dimensions to the show rewatching years later?

I just recently bought the whole show on Blu Ray to rewatch,

I remember the first time I watched on Netflix in 2012. I was Silas age in the first season, now watching as a full adult I see the scene where Megan ghosts him from the more obvious point of view of what she's doing and why,

As a teen I just thought it was mean. There's plenty more but it's making a rewatch real fun

I'm Sticking With You played over the end credits of some episode, but which one?

I've got this Velvet Underground song stuck in my head for some reason, & it's super difficult to find complete tracklists for episodes. (Why is that? I remember loving the song that kicks in when Esteban is taken away by the police, & it was hell to find it.)

Body suit for Perkins?

Did Elizabeth Perkins wear a body suit in Weeds when she did her "scene" or was that just terrible plastic surgery?

Silas pan?

Heys guys! New to Reddit and all but I’ve recently started watching Weeds and in the second season Silas has a pan flag in his room (when Nancy breaks in and see the cameras and signs) do they ever say something about it? Or has anyone else noticed it before?

Weeds series for purchase

Hi everyone! I could not find the series anywhere good to stream as it was removed from Hulu recently. I found it on Plex and Philo for free but it was grainy, too many commercials and edited.

I wanted to let everyone looking know that you can buy the entire series unedited for $20 on Apple. I found it to be a great deal!!

Shane Digs Gretchen

The season 2 soundtrack is absolutely incredible to me. The song “Shane Digs Gretchen”, I feel, really represents the show entirely in some way just by the sound— or maybe it’s just me (or because they were actual key moments).

I previously made a post about a month ago sharing my story of how I connect to the show.

This song just makes me feel at peace. Whether I’m sad or happy, this simple sound really touches my heart. Surprisingly, it was my top song on Apple Replay.

  • Other songs I feel represent the show include “With Arms Outstretched - Rilo Kiley” and “Don’t Leave Me (Ne me quitte pas) - Regina Skeptor”

Nancy was Celia’s karma

for the way she treated Pam lol. Pam wanted nothing more than to be her friend, and was constantly chasing her around trying to gain her acceptance, but Celia rejected her at every turn and didn’t show any respect towards her.

Celia did however want to be friends with Nancy, and even projected a sort of obsession with her. Obviously Nancy wasn’t having it from the beginning, and Celia was always extremely hurt by it.

I love them both, and Celia was actually my favourite character in terms of humour (alongside Doug), but it’s just kinda funny to see that the way you treat people does come back around. An experience you cause someone else will be an experience you go through yourself. Whether people realise it or not.

Started with Low Expectations, Ended Up as One of My Favorite Shows

Three weeks ago I came across the show in a TikTok post titled 'underrated series.' I've never heard of it before, but I was looking for something to watch while eating, so I decided to give it a shot.

I've watched the first two seasons over the course of two weeks. It was good but I was pacing myself with a few episodes a day. Then came the third season, and the story completely sucked me in; I ended up finishing the entire season in one night. The next day, I jumped straight into season four and finished that in a single day too (yes, I'm unemployed). S5 felt a bit slow, but S6 was definitely one of the best in my opinion. I didn’t enjoy season seven as much, but I think the finale was okay too.

I usually don't even google the cast until I finish the show to avoid spoilers. I know it's an old show, but I was still surprised to see almost nothing about it on social media after finishing because I thought it was absolutely great. Then, I was even more surprised when I saw on a show recommendation subreddit that people were saying the show was trash after the first three seasons.

I think the finale of S6 was the highlight of the series, and yes, there was a clear drop in quality in seasons 7 and 8, but that was not the case for seasons 4-5-6. They wrapped up the Agrestic storyline perfectly, and just in time, because Nancy had nothing left to do there. The change of location was a good move, and the Ren-Mar/Mexico arc was very interesting. Esteban was definitely better than Peter, and I liked how the story evolved into a darker dimension, with the characters becoming more complex. Also liked the side characters more in the later seasons than in the beginning. I was sad to see Heylia and Conrad go, but I think it would have been ridiculous to move the entire cast to a new location. Jenji Kohan got similar criticism for Orange Is the New Black too **SPOILER**(people said the show should’ve ended after the big event in the season 4 finale, and that the location change dropped the quality)** SPOILER**, but I liked the later seasons there too. Most people get so used to the setting and want the whole show to take place there or the story to be kept short, but we're watching the characters’ journeys unfold and imo Jenji's good at that. Still, there were some 'cracks' in seasons 4, 5, and 6 compared to the first three. Especially Celia. It was nice to watch her hit rock bottom but I guess they didn’t know what to do with her character at some point, and they messed it up in S5 even more, eventually taking her out of the show. Such a waste.

Started off loving Nancy, then hated her, hated her even more, but eventually got used to her and started feeling neutral. She was definitely one of the most interesting and well-written characters in the shows I’ve watched recently, and a really strong lead. Mary-Louise Parker was amazing ofc and nailed her role. Honestly, the only characters I never got tired of watching in any seasons were Nancy and Doug. Silas also became one of my favs. Even in slower seasons (for me) like 5 and 7, there were still things that kept me hooked, and Silas was definitely one of them. I liked his character development and saw a bit of myself in him from time to time. Shane wasn’t as bad as people make him out to be, but yeah, he was still pretty bad. I liked the dynamic between Andy and Nancy but that scene where he runs away from her should’ve either happened way earlier or Andy should’ve been written out of the show after the airport scene. In the last two seasons, he was just lost and just didn’t add much to the story.

I’m not sure if it’s the music, the characters, or the story, but I absolutely loved it. After finishing it so quickly, I was kind of bummed out because I haven’t felt like watching anything for the past four days. I feel like I didn’t fully appreciate the first two seasons, so I might end up rewatching it soon, lol. It became one of my comfort shows, and I’ve recommended it to a lot of friends. Kept watching because I got attached, but honestly, people could stop at any point and the story would feel complete for them. Still, I think it’s worth watching to the end. Each season tackled a different main theme. Plus, the season finales were always super dramatic and perfect.

This post ended up a bit scattered and aimless, I know, but I have no one to talk to about the show lol. I've created this account just to write this. What do you all think? Are there parts you agree or disagree with? I’m really eager to talk more about the show and hear different perspectives!
