Weeds: Ep. 309 - Release the Hounds/The Seventh Sense

What is going on with stalker girl Nancy and the dead husbands ex-wife Valerie? I just don't get this at all. It follows no logical path and is not in the least bit entertaining or funny. Very misguided.

I can see Dean being injured as a last ditch effort to keep him in the script. He was really fading from the show and now that he needs to be taken care of (and they made it abundantly clear there was no one but Celia) he will regain a little prominence.

Tara was annoying as usual. Where is that drive-by I have been asking for? The Olsen bag lady needs to go!

The only thing redeeming about this episode was the ending. Great move by Doug to stick it to Sullivan. I loved the Robot remix dance as well!

Oh silly me, once again I completely forgot to watch! I usually watch the Hills in that timeslot and then catch a rerun of Weeds, but last night the Hills didn't even have a new ep and I still forgot! I ended up watching the Yankees hopes and dreams get crushed instead, lol.

Well, when you do see it make sure to come back and share your thoughts

It is crazy that we are almost to the end of this season and it really hasn't gone anywhere! Only 3 epiosdes left...

The Nancy/Valerie friendship is bizarre. One day Nancy decides to stalk her, then the next they are BFF? Makes no sense at all. I mean, I realize Nancy probably needs friends who don't shoot her walls in the house or throw thousands of dollars of crops away like Celia, but this storyline really is out of left field. The only thing I can think of is that it's going to lead to something such as...
A. Valerie figures out they were married.
B. Valerie figures out that Nancy is a drug dealer.
C. Valerie links Nancy to his murder.
D. All of the above

As for Doug doing the robot, I have to say that I love love love him!! Hee hee.

Oh ya, and as for Tara, it's fundamentalist born again Christians like her who make me want to become Jewish. Hee hee.

It looks from the preview that Nancy is going to try and get his life insurance (or something like that.) Maybe this is where the story will tie together.

No matter what, it is just stupid and I am not that interested.


I have been carefully watching the episode ratings over on tv.com and they have been going down, down down...
