Wow! Was premiere night for Weeds and The Foundation ever crrrrazy?!
Is it just me or is Weeds reaching new levels of over-the-top already? Doug’s noose trick to end last season was brilliantly carried over to the premiere, unreal. Celia continues to be the slyest bitch on the planet. How Nancy struggles is painfully entertaining and holy crap has Shane and Issy grown up over the off season. I’m not really into Andy’s crush and Silas is just a nerd imo, but there are still 12 episodes to sort those two out.
And what a killer debut for The Foundation. Mike Valmont-Selkirk is one horrendous dude and overall the offside misadventures of the entire organization are going to be gut busting all season. I love the little devil on one shoulder, Barry, and the little angel on the other, Cynthia. Marnie’s expressions are just too much and I know Apollo will be stealing a show sooner or later; his house coat was award winning… lol. I really think this has the potential to be my favourite Showcase Original ever… bold statement I know.
On to this week, Mike is sure to reach super low levels when he initiates a charity fundraising “race” and Guillermo is back in the second episode of Weeds and like someone mentioned in our chat for the premieres, a showdown is sure to ensue between him and Nancy.
