My Grading System

A+ = Masterpiece (I hold back on this one.) / A = Great. / A- = Really Good. / B+ = Good. / B = Decent (Serviceable). / B- = Flawed but okay (For those times there's something redeeming about the work). / C+ = Not very good (Skip it). C = Bad. / C- = Awful. / F = Complete Disaster (I hold back on this one too).

Note on Spoilers: I will try to avoid ruining a story by going into too much detail. But if I wish to include some revealing points to my analysis I will try to remember to add a separate spoiler paragraph.

Weeds (Season 2)

There's no telling what to expect from this wonderful Showtime comedy about a single mother selling pot to keep her family's suburbia lifestyle.  Mary-Louise Parker is so charming it's amazing she wasn't cast in more projects until now.  What I like most about this show is how unpredictable it is.  The writers know how to keep the audience guessing.  Nothing is typical. Zooey Deschanel makes a very welcomed appearance as Andy's Ex and Meital Dohan, as Andy's love interest, is hysterical.  And what's a show about pot without an Snoop Dog.  Dark, witty, with a sharp after bite this isn't a show for the easily offended, but if you're like me you'll be excited to start watching the third season.  Grade: A-.
