Weeds Season Seven: A new beginning
Last season showed our favorite antiheroine, Nancy Botwin, giving herself up to authorities, taking the rap for the murder of Pilar, which was actually committed by her son Shane. The murderer, as well as Andy and Silas were headed to Copenhagen, Denmark, to start a new life. Some were saying that could have been a great ending for the entire series, which may as well have ended at the end of season three.In all conceivable rationality, Weeds should have ended when they left Agrestic, because it became an entirely different series after this happened, but I have enjoyed every season they have done thoroughly. I think the series has thrived on change, and it proves in a fun way that people don't change, even with change constantly happening around them.In season seven, we pick up on Nancy and the Botwin clan three years later. By this time, Nancy has done three years behind bars, for "manslaughter", with her drug-dealing history seemingly ignored. In the first ten minutes of this season's premiere, with an anonymous deal from someone whose identity we never find, she is released from prison and sent to a halfway house in Manhattan, where she stays for about half of this season. Three years behind bars have seemingly done nothing to her emotionally, because she goes right back into dealing, and as the show's history has proven, trouble will follow her.Mary Louise-Parker (Nancy) enjoys a season full of exciting story-lines, and chances to make her character more interesting. However, the rest of the cast is given semi-lame story-lines this year. Andy, Silas and Shane come back from Copenhagen, and buy a loft in New York, hoping to leave a place for Nancy to return to, after being released from the halfway house.Silas (Hunter Parrish) has been doing male modeling in Copenhagen (which is appropriate, given how hot he's become), and he's still mad at Nancy after finding out that Judah was not his biological father. His bitchy little antics last through most of the season, and it's simply annoying for the most part. Shane (Alexander Gould) is grateful for Nancy's sacrifices for him. He's been doing marionettes puppet theater in Copenhagen for the past three years, and this season, Nancy gives him the ultimatum, "I gave you three years, you're going to give me four", and sends him to college.Doug (Kevin Nealon) is useless this season, as he was last year. He's still funny, but not in the same way he used to be. He's become a parody of himself, starting with last season, however, he's given a semi-decent story-line this year, which comes pretty close to redeeming his character, however, I still think he should've been given the boot when Celia was left out of the picture.Truly, this is one of the best seasons Weeds has done in a while, the best we've seen since maybe season four. It ends up being something completely different than it began. The ending was a cliff-hanger that truly bothers me, considering this may be the final season, given that it hasn't been decided yet whether there will be a season eight. I truly hope that there will be a season eight, considering that the way they ended this year is completely horrible. That season has the possibility to be better than this one.

Fun season -- a nice return to form!
----------------------------------------------"Weeds: Season Seven"----------------------------------------------In my opinion, the last couple of seasons of "Weeds" were kind of a drag, pretty strained and super-sharkjumpy. The screenwriters had so thoroughly boxed themselves in by the whole Mexican-mafia thing that they had nowhere to go, and it seemed like the show had ground to a halt. I dutifully picked up Season 7, but didn't have unrealistic hopes about its quality level.Here's the good news: in a single stroke, the writers leapfrogged past the Mexico story, and placed Nancy and her crew into a completely new situation, sort of like a reality show decamping to a new locale. From being aimlessly on the run and battered by an absurdly cruel universe, they were now in New York City, living the life and having a lot of fun. The new setup allowed all the characters to reboot, and the show's writers to get their groove back. Some of the same plot tics came back, but the show was clearly not in the deep rut it had been in before -- they were being silly and having fun again, they way they had in the first couple of seasons. A lot of the humor derives from the deliciously unpleasant characters -- there's no one here on a par with Nancy's old gal-pal Celia, but Nancy's sister is so unbelievably awful, she does come close. Anyway, S7 is worth a shot... Even if you found yourself drifting away before, you'll want to give them another try this time around. This is a a fun season! (DJ Joe Sixpack, Slipcue Film Reviews)

the end
This season was amazing, considering i have been following the show from the beging i was really excited to finish it. I understand that it hasnt been released that this is the final season but as i can tell by the last episode of this season i dont think certain characters would be able to return although i hope that i am wrong. In this season you see Nancy return from her stent in jail where she "uses" another person to help herself out, she battles with her sister for custody of her youngest son and you catch up with Andy, Sylace, Shane, and surprisingly Doug. As with all the other seasons she just cant stay away from the only thing she knows how to do which is sell weed. She finds herself stuck in a half way house where she soon cons her way out as always. When you catch up with the family you soon realize that they have all grown into their own people and in Andy's case wants out of the drug world to find his own nitch in a bike shop. Sylace is trying to start his own connection for dealing and surprisingly Shane is trying to get into law enforcment after being forced to go to college by Nancy with her stating "i gave you three years of my life now you give me four." The season is full of suspence and amazing story lines and ends with a bang!! I just hope that it will come back for another season even though from what i could tell by the end of this season were not going to see much more of this amazingly strong female character.

Amazon Doesn't Want You To Know the Truth About Its Products
I enjoyed Weeds seasons 7 & 8 and that's why I bought them. But I have had some negative experiences with a product I bought on Amazon. I rated it fairly and accurately. I didn't use course language and my description of the product was absolutely true. Amazon took down the post and told me that it violated the terms of service agreement at which point it gave me a link that did NOT go to said terms of service agreement. They ask that I rewrite the review which I did, but again, because it was honest and warned people not to buy the shoddy piece of crap that I was sold (in much nicer terms, mind you, in fact, all I said was that I didn't recommend buying it.) Again it was taken down. I sent an email to Amazon which was completely ignored. So buy Weeds with confidence, if you liked the series you will be pleased with this product. But don't expect to get a balanced review of Amazon products or sellers because they delete those reviews.
