Diary of a Weeds virgin – There are no easy answers for Nancy
(Season 3, Episodes 1-3)
Ever since its excellent cliffhanger at the end of season 2, I’ve been super-exited about starting season 3 of Weeds. I’m happy to report that the first three episodes do not disappoint. We start off exactly where we left off, and the story takes a bunch of twists and turns that I never saw coming. I’m still not certain where some of the storylines are going (Andy’s going into the Army, Celia’s divorce), but I can’t wait to keep watching so I can find out. Plus there’s an extra bonus for me in these episodes: there’s so much action and Nancy’s in so much danger, that I actually forget to hate her most of the time. Win!
(Season 3, Episode 1 “Doing the Backstroke”)
What a great/horribly frustrating season opener. After leaving off with a pretty amazing cliff hanger, I was looking forward to seeing how Nancy was going to get herself out of this situation. Instead I got a (very entertaining) half-hour of her just getting deeper and deeper into the shit. Not only does Celia end up with Silas’ car that has all of the pot, but she finds it and throws it into the pool. Now I’m no drug kingpin, but something tells me that even if you could dry it out again, the chlorine may negatively affect the product. On the other hand, drugs are cut with all kinds of crazy stuff, so maybe it’ll end up being just the ingredient MILF weed needs to take it to the next level.
Diary of a Weeds Virgin – The Botwins are in an awkward situation
(Season 2, Episodes 10-12)
I’ve had some problems with several episodes this season, and quite frankly, midway through I was not looking forward to season 3. I just find Nancy so fundamentally unlikeable, that I was having a hard time with the entire premise of the show. However, Doug and Celia’s affair, and the introduction of Kat really kept it going for me. Plus, the season finale is phenomenal and has really gotten me jazzed for the next season.
2×10 “Mile Deep and A Foot Wide”
This episode was pretty awesome. Mainly because Celia and Doug are still cheating on their respective spouses together and watching police camera footage instead of porn. They’re kind of amazingly perfect for each other, and I hope it lasts for a while. I’m afraid Celia may be feeling a little guilty though, so I’m hoping she can push past it.
