    Weeds

    I somehow skipped this show when it was current, but got current quickly, thanks to On Demand. I didn't just watch one, I watched the whole damn season last night. I couldn't get enough and now I'm jonesing for August to get a new episode.

    Anyone else watch, or miss, this show? I had heard so much about it, but thought, Showtime? Nah. Meanwhile, I've been exploring other Showtime shows and am hooked on Penn & Teller's Bull, too.

    That was one of the shows I was working on before I left my job in Hollywood. Listening to Kevin Nealon's improv was hilarious.

    I caught a bunch of epsidodes from the first season in my old place where I had free showtime and cinemax and it was quite funny. I has me jonesing for quite a few things now.

    Check out Dead Like Me too. Unfortunately they canceled it, but there are a couple of seasons to keep you entertained.

    Just bumping because I'm super excited about the new season, which starts next Monday, the 14th!

    If you have On Demand, catch up with season one - you won't believe how good the writing is on this show.

    bag, I know that show well - very, very well.

    Yeah it's pretty good, isn't it? Weird seeing the West Wing chick as a pot dealer, but whatever

    For UK mags, it's on Sky One...

    Do you realize that you've just posted an admission of ignorance so breathtaking that it disqualifies you from commenting on any political or economic threads from here on out?

    I also just started watching Weeds and it's very good. I have it OnDemand and I've seen the first two episodes from last season so far. Kevin Nealon is pretty funny...and the little boy reminds me of myself when I was 10.

    It's sad that Entourage is almost over..that's my favorite HBO series

    Bump, because the show is that damn good.

    Can't decide which version of the opening song I like the best.

    my favourite show by far- really good humour. Her supplier ( the black grandmother) is great. The music director is it the same Joey Santiago, guitarist of the Pixies? I've downloaded a few of the tunes from the soundtrack, good stuff, mostly from artists you've never heard of.
    I just wish it didn't come on at 11 pm.

    from wiki:

    As of season 2, the title song Little Boxes (performed in the first season by its writer Malvina Reynolds) is performed by different artists in each episode. Artists include Elvis Costello (episode 201), Death Cab for Cutie (episode 202), Engelbert Humperdinck (episode 203), Kate and Anna McGarrigle (episode 204), who performed the song in French translation, Aidan Hawken (episode 206), and Mrs. Botwin's Neighborhood (episode 205), had a classical orchestra performing the song.
    awesomeness. i just started my wife on weeds season 1 last night to get her caught up for season 2. looking forward to it!

    Awesome show, I make sure to watch it every week even though I gave up smoking till my first day on the hill. You should also check out Brotherhood. Its another show on Showtime based on the lives of Whitey and Billy Bulger.

    Yeah, it is a great show. Wife got me hooked on it last year. Huff is another good Showtime unit. Entourage is still the best 1/2 hour on TV though.

    Mad props to the show...I mainly watch it because I'm in love with Mary Louise-Parker and would pay almost anything to see her naked.
    I recently had my testicles laminated.
