Line 1: {{work\|wppage=Weeds (TV series)}} [[File:WEEDS-Season-6-poster_2423.jpg\|thumb\|350px\|Give in to Hemptation]] '''''Weeds''''' iswas a dramedy on [[Showtime (TV network)\|Showtime]], ~~airing~~that ~~since~~aired from 2005 to 2012. The show ~~centers~~centerd on Nancy Botwin, a widowed mother of two in California who deals marijuana to make ends meet. Her sons Silas and Shane (15 and 10 at the start of the series) and mooching brother-in-law, her [[Rich Bitch]] friend/nemesis Celia, Celia's long-suffering husband and daughter, her supplier Heylia and grow expert Conrad form the core of the show's [[Loads and Loads of Characters]]. And [[My Friends and Zoidberg\|Doug the councilman]]. ---- Line 34: ** Yael is a very amusing character to watch for Hebrew speakers. Her actress actually speaks perfect Hebrew, slang included, and definitely knows how to make the most of the fact nobody else can understand what she's saying... * [[Bolivian Army Cliffhanger]]: The [[Cliff Hanger]] ending of Season 2. * [[Bottle Fairy]]: Celia. The hypocrisy of her habit, coupled with trying to make Agrestic "drug free" as part of her city council position, was a running gag.▼ * [[Break the Cutie]]: {{spoiler\|Shane Botwin}}. Though it's more of a [[Beware the Nice Ones\|snap]] than a break. * [[Brick Joke]]: Several... Line 87 ⟶ 86: * [[Girl-On-Girl Is Hot]]: Inverted when Nancy [[A Date with Rosie Palms\|relaxes herself]] with gay porn left in an RV. * [[Gray and Grey Morality]]: In the early seasons. [[Black and Grey Morality\|Turns darker]] in later seasons. ▲* [[~~Bottle~~Hard-Drinking ~~Fairy~~Party Girl]]: Celia. The hypocrisy of her habit, coupled with trying to make Agrestic "drug free" as part of her city council position, was a running gag. * [[Heroic Sociopath]]: {{spoiler\|Shane}} just wants to protect his family. Especially his {{spoiler\|baby half-brother}}▼ * [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: Wait a second, [[Angels in America\|Harper Pitt and Prior Walter]] are in-laws? ** Valerie still winces when she sees [[Silence of the Lambs\|lotion or hoses]]. Line 119 ⟶ 118: * [[Missing White Woman Syndrome]]: Lampshaded when Marvin takes Nancy along to the negotiations with the Mexicans. {{quote\|'''Marvin''': Don't nobody want a dead white lady on their hands!}} * [[Ms. Fanservice]]: Nancy, [https://web.archive.org/web/20130619150726/http://www.babble.com/CS/blogs/famecrawler/2008/06/16-22/poster_weeds-poster_ny6t.jpg especially in the show's promotional material...] * [[Must Have Caffeine]]: A bit of a running gag. Nancy ''really'' likes her iced lattes, to the very last drop. It helps that Mary Louise Parker [[Fan Service\|looks cute]] with a straw sticking out the side of her mouth. * [[Naive Newcomer]] Line 144 ⟶ 143: * [[Sleazy Politician]]: The entire Agrestic City Council but especially Doug. * [[Soap Opera Rapid Aging Syndrome]]: Shane's actor seems to have slammed into puberty between season 5 and 6 resulting in his voice drastically changing in the roughly 3 seconds of show time between those two seasons. The [[Time Skip]] of season 7 makes this easier to deal with. ▲* [[~~Heroic~~Sociopathic ~~Sociopath~~Hero]]: {{spoiler\|Shane}} just wants to protect his family. Especially his {{spoiler\|baby half-brother}} * [[Soft Glass]]: Averted when {{spoiler\|Celia hits Doug over the head with a glass pitcher--Doug gets knocked out, and Celia drinks the rest of her screwdriver straight from the pitcher.}} * [[Spank the Cutie]]: Happens to a couple of different characters, actually.
