Critics' reviews

"'Weeds' is colossally great... a series far better than its premise and utterly essential for devotees of smart, entertaining television"

Tim Goodman: SFGATE
"The perceptively written show is actually a credible look at lives stuck in neutral and people almost trapped by their addiction to a certain level of upper-middle class comfort"

Maureen Ryan: Chicago Tribune
"It's perhaps appropriate to the subject matter that the show's main appeal is sensual rather than cerebral, grounded in a host of superb performances"

Robert Lloyd: Los Angeles Times
"'Weeds' is still an outstanding show, but it would be better if it didn’t push so hard to stand out"

Alessandra Stanley: The New York Times
"It's the funniest thing you'll see all summer--particularly if you're drug-free"

Paige Wiser: Chicago Sun-Times
"I'm pretty sure there aren't drugs strong enough to get me to the bittersweet end of this series"
