Movie Reviews of Weeds: Season ThreeMovie Review: Superb Season In The Worst DVD Box Ever Summary: 5 Stars
THE CONTENT: I'll put it this way. This is the longest season of Weeds so far, and I watched it ten times faster than any season before it. In two days, I'd muscled through all fifteen episodes, which make have contributed in small part to how COMPLETE the thing just felt. Like no season of the show before it, it tests all the characters and takes the story to the next level. While all of the other seasons were almost sinfully entertaining, this one is so excellent in all levels, from character development to the intricate plot that picks up on the cliffhanger that ended Season Two and produces the most cohesive story so far. This brings everything from the first two seasons together for such an incredible climax that it makes me want to watch the whole Weeds catalogue all over again. While it's not pitch perfect (as funny as the Andy military stuff was, it was a bit too much for me to buy), it's the best season so far. Superbly acted (I mean... Mary-Louise Parker... c'mon Emmys), humbly but excellently written, and visually stunning, Weeds is one of the best shows out there.
THE PACKAGE: I get the whole going green thing. I even think the fact that Weeds went green is a bit funny. However, I stopped getting it and I certainly stopped laughing when I realized that this flimsy, recycled packaging causes the DVDs to fall about and get scratched. As sympathetic as I am to the cause... I don't want to keep buying the third season of Weeds over and over because the box can't hold a DVD. A show this superb deserves packaging that will support it, and Weeds was not given that. They should re-release this in the same format as the first and second seasons, because this is truly a disservice to the loyal fans. The packaging is obviously rated a negative... let's just say fifteen, but that has no impact on how many stars I give this. Just let this passage serve as a warning that the packaging is awful... the worst I've ever seen.
9/10
