The urge to herbal
INHALE! Weeds, Sky Three, 10.00pm
We issue the following apology - this preview is probably going to look a little scant compared to some of our other articles, but we've just finished writing tomorrow's Veronica Mars update and it took us hours, so we're exhausted and it's way past our bedtime. However, we did want to bring everyone's attention to the fact that Weeds will be airing on Sky Three today, thank you please.
For those not in the know, Weeds is another of those darkly-comic dramas that lifts the lid on suburban America, this time by showcasting a respectable-looking mother who supplements her meagre income by selling marijuana. Her best friend is also the local busybody, and her sons and family have capital-I Issues. And then there's also the issue of trying to raise her sons to be respectable pillars of the community, which is at times a little at odds with her new occupation.
This is another one of those shows, like Battlestar Galactica, that we missed during its initial run on Sky One, but we've heard good things about it, and now there's a chance for the Freeview-restricted among us to join in the dope (as in good, you see?) fun. There's more detail in tomorrow's previews, we promise.
