Great Design Ideas From 2009's Emmy Nominees: Weeds

CasaSugar — Tue, 28 Jul 2009 10:00:13 -0700

In the past season of Weeds, the Botwins moved from their gated community of Agrestic, CA, to a beach town on the border of California and Mexico. Hunkering down in Nancy's mother-in-law's house, the family set about remaking their lives. The grandma-style design of this house delighted me last season. See how they put together the look of this fusty, grandma-style home.

How I'd Wire Weeds' Nancy Botwin

GeekSugar — Mon, 13 Jul 2009 06:03:59 -0700

Weeds' Nancy Botwin recently proved she has no respect for the Zune and I got to thinking about how the hemp-loving hippie chick could better integrate technology into her wacky world of coffee drinking and living on the edge in Suburbia.

Nancy's son Shane has been geeking out with his Mac and security systems since he was a tot, but Nancy seems to be stuck in a technology rut. She drives a Prius with built-in Bluetooth, but her cell phone looks like the clunky flip phone I had before college. It's high time I offer the green queen some suggestions for getting wired.

Little Boxes on the Hillside

CasaSugar — Wed, 10 Oct 2007 07:05:10 -0700

Molly directed me to these Flickr photos from the Westlake District of Daly City, California. One of America's first master-planned postwar suburbs, Westlake was the "inspiration" for Malvina Reynolds' song "Little Boxes," which became a hit for folk musician Pete Seeger in 1964. Many Casa readers, however, probably recognize it as the theme music for the TV show "Weeds."

You can find out more about Westlake on America's Most Perfect Ticky-Tacky Suburb. I'm curious: Do you like these homes, or do you find the design too dated? Tell me when you take a look the gallery and read more

Weedsifornication Part Deux: In Praise of MK

Molly — Thu, 02 Aug 2007 17:06:33 -0700

Despite the fact that pretty MK slunk off into the night after the Weeds/Californication premiere, it looks like the post party was fun times. David, Kevin & MLP were clearly showing all the youngins how to par-tay. While MK wasn't in the house, I'm happy to report that her new co-star Romany Malco (Conrad on the show) has nothing but praise for the twin, "I understand, now, why she’s so famous. She’s got mad skills. It’s almost like you come in every day and you meet your sensei, you get your ass kicked. At the end, you say ‘thank you.’" Awwww, that warms my stone cold heart. So proud.

MK, Mary-Louise & David Celebrate Weedsifornication

Molly — Thu, 02 Aug 2007 00:42:38 -0700

August 13th, when Weeds comes back and Californication premieres on Showtime, can't come soon enough -- and this screening of the shows just makes me more incredibly excited. Last night the stars came out in Hollywood and, well, I think it's pretty needless to say how amazing I think MK looks! She is so happy, tooth smile and all! On the show MK plays a good Christian girl and it looks like she's keeping up the image with that big cross. Unfortunately Ashley wasn't out with her twin to show off their similar but differently fabulous styles. MLP was radiant even if this isn't my favorite dress while David exuded his standard level of effortless cool. This isn't the first time the two newly back-to-back shows have done promotions together and I'm certainly hoping it's not the last. Long live Weedsifornication.

Mary-Kate Is All Grown Up On The Set of Weeds, Yays

Molly — Mon, 30 Jul 2007 16:04:20 -0700

Mary-Kate was looking a little bit sass-factor leaving the set of Weeds on Friday. Look at her all adult like taking on her first real acting job -- and she looks so happy with her co-workers. I feel like a proud mother. Yeah, that's a little awkward. But seriously though, when was the last time we saw MK in flats? It's probably been years. And have I mentioned how excited I am for the return of Weeds? Yeah, just a few times.

Outstanding Weeds Cast (MK! MLP!) At Awesome TCAs

Molly — Tue, 17 Jul 2007 00:10:38 -0700

Wow, can you say Favorite Picture Ev-er? Ever. Ever. The amazing incredible marvelous cast of Weeds, Mary-Kate included, got together at the Showtime TCAs over the weekend. The event not only housed some stellar people, but held some pretty big news for the network like their new Spielberg show. As for the pics, first of all MK is totally cute. Her make-up and hair are finally understated and beautiful (get her look here!) and she looks so happy to be there. Also, judging from these pictures her relationship with Silas, or the boy who plays him, is pret-ty seriously friendly. Awwwww. Meanwhile, Mary Louise Parker was phenomenal, as usual, in her DvF dress. And speaking of on screen/off screen chemistry -- she's looking pret-ty seriously friendly with Conrad (clearly, I don't know any of the male actors real names). I'm in love with how much fun they're all having together! I cannot wait for Season 3!

Stay tuned later for more from the Showtime TCAs (like David Duchovny and his new costars) and, of course, all of Buzz's TCA coverage live from LA. To see A LOT more pictures of the Weeds ladies and gents all together, including so much MK and MLP and all the adorable boys just read more
