1. Quality

2. Summary

   Great 4.0

   Another hit from Showtime (Dexter being one of them). Weeds, from the start, pulls you in with such immense power, that it is unfortunate it gets a little weaker is later seasons. Weeds’ blunt and sometimes dark humor really delivers. With a run time of 30 mins. for each episode, there isn’t time for it to drag on.

4. Acting

   Perfect 5.0

   The cast is delightful. Each character progresses throughout each season. Mary-Louise Parker is absolutely spectacular as a failing mother in the drug dealing business.

5. Male Stars Perfect 5.0

6. Female Stars Perfect 5.0

7. Female Costars Perfect 5.0

8. Male Costars Perfect 5.0

10. Film

    Really Great 4.5

    With such a dark subject, it’s amazing they can be so light with it. Also, I must note how every episode the intro song is sung by a different artist.

11. Direction Perfect 5.0
