Weeds - Season Three

I bought this for my daughter, her favorite show. She has enjoyed this show and I feel it is worth the money.

Weeds- Season Three continues to keep up the fast pace, non-pc, highly entertaining episodes that everyone has come to expect from this addictive show. It continues to give working moms everywhere time to not only laugh and cry along with Nancy, but also to take a closer look at themselves and the world we live in! Bring on Season 4.

I see a lot of people did not care for season 3 of Weeds. While I did get the sense that, Nancy will never win and got frustrated at her life/circumstances (won't give anything away)...I still really enjoyed this season and am ready to watch Season 4!

I thought this season showed us a new side of many characters, Celia, Silas, Shane, Andy and Dean. I liked how the cliff hanger from season 2 was dealt with. And in each half hour there was enough drama that at the end of each show you were ready to watch the next one to see what was going to happen.

My only complaint with Weeds is that the plot seems to be repeating with regards to Nancy and nearly getting caught selling, then her being in debt to someone etc. I've finished season 4, and that's what has made me a little dismayed at the fact that it does seem to be the same formula over & over...but I'm waiting till Season 5 to make up my mind on that.

Again, I think Showtime has hit paydirt with an original, fun show. The half hour format is what does it for me, something quick to pop in and sit back and relax to. Even more, the cast and crew makes this show a shining star in a dark night of boring TV.

The third season of Weeds is extremely uneven in its execution. The stories seem to start at one place, begin to progress in a particular direction and then end abruptly with no real resolution.
We begin the season with our protagonist, Nancy, being held at gunpoint in a standoff between two drug gangs, a tense situation that is resolved in a fairly lame fashion. She then becomes the pupil of a violent gangster who treats her like his little sister, after suggesting to another character that he intends to rape her, but this plot line too is just dropped.
A ridiculous subplot about Nancy Botwin's brother-in-law being accepted into the army, with a wound that would clearly exempt him from service (missing most of the toes from one foot), again goes nowhere, being dropped almost immediately.
I love this show and even found some humor in the antics of the characters in the third season, but the story telling in this season could have been so much stronger.
One hopes that the fourth season will turn out better.

I thought I was buying a three seasons set. It wasn't until I had paid that I realised it was only season 3. Should be clearer during the initial search page. Product excellent- advert unclear
