I admit I tapered off Weeds a bit toward the end of season four, when Nancy's now-very-serious drug dealing got to be a bit too much. (Where was my iced coffee and my satirical suburbia?) But that doesn't mean I'm not curious to see what new twists and turns the Weeds folks have cooked up for us for season five.
These two new promos for Showtime are helping raise my interest. One's nearly wordless except for one key scene (which is spoilery if you haven't finished season four yet, so proceed with caution). The other is an impassioned pro-pot speech from Doug. Not that I condone illegal drugs, of course, but oh, how I've missed Doug!
The new season premieres June 8, with Jennifer Jason Leigh on board for part of the season as Nancy's estranged sister. Will you be watching? To check out the promos, just read more.

i can't wait for the new season. it's interesting actually - i didn't watch hardly any of season 3 - but came in for all of season 4. it was a bit far fetched at times, but it was still good.
1great show. can't wait!
2I'm still excited to see what's happening, although I miss satirical suburbia too.
3I love love love MLP, but the last season was just way too over the top for me, so I canceled my showtime. Let me know if it's netflix worthy.
4I am so excited about the premiere. In the last month I have re- watched the entire series.
5Love Weeds, i think the humour is definatly still there. Cant wait to see the next season, looks brill
6can't wait!! Did anyone notice Silas in 17 again? He was really good.
7Jennifer Jason Leigh will definately help. It did get a little over the top last season.
Jeffifer Jason Leigh was tremendous in a drug movie from the early 90s, "Rush". I cant wait for the season to start.
