I can't watch 30 Rock anymore. This show spoiled me!

If there is a heaven, it's got an endless supply of Weeds episodes. Consistently robbed by Award Shows, under-sold, under-advertised, it's got the most creative writing, the funniest, most daring actors, and what's amazing is that every season tops the last. How long can they keep it up? Personally, I've seen every episode, 4 or 5 seasons already, and my only complaint is that they only make about a dozen episodes a year. Way to keep people jonesing! The writers, cast and crew should have their every need catered to, and their only responsibility should be to make more Weeds episodes. More episodes, longer episodes, keep everyone in the cast, and keep spreading the word so I can laugh about it with more people. These are my only suggestions. You might want to watch from Season One, as everything builds, and references to the past are made. The topics discussed or engaged in seem to be all the ones that are taboo in our society: guns, drugs, sex, politics, abortion, etc. Sometimes, the characters choose wisely, and sometimes they do wrong, but even when they do, it ends up making us, the viewers, all the wiser for it. But ultimately, it's about a family. And that's the main thing that keeps me coming back. It's a meal of madcap clever zaniness sprinkled throughout with moments of intense sunshiny love. Aww!
