The second season of Weeds starts Monday Aug. 14 on Showtime.  I have missed the people of Agrestic so much!

"Nancy discovers that her new beau (Martin Donovan) is a DEA agent; Celia decides to run for city council---against Doug; Andy applies to rabbinical school and faces a tough admissions officer (Meital Dohan)."

 I think we decided last season that I am the only who watched this show besides Amanda who couldn't quite get past the theme song.

We're waiting impatiently for the second season over here. I have to admit when I heard the theme song I was reminded of when I was a child and my Dad used to sing it to me.

I hated it then too...

My theory by A. Elk, brackets, Miss, brackets. This theory goes as follows and begins now. All brontosauruses are thin at one end, much much thicker in the middle, and then thin again at the far end. That is my theory, it is mine, and it belongs to me, and I own it, and what it is, too.

I'm currently watching the first season and it's fast becoming one of my favourite shows.  Good stuff.  But the theme tune is awful - I hit the mute button when it starts.

That would be incredible. I love both Elvis Costello and Jenny Lewis. :D I just hope that their own unique styles really distract me from the lyrics. There's just something about the phrase "ticky-tacky" that makes my skin crawl.

here's the post: http://community.livejournal.com/ohnotheydidnt/8006414.html#cutid1

It includes some promo pics for season 2. 

On the music side, Weeds producers have lined up several recording artists to cover the show's quirky theme song "Little Boxes" originally sung by Melvina Reynolds. Each week the show airs, "Little Boxes" will be performed over the credits by different artists including Grammy winner Elvis Costello, Englebert Humperdinck, Death Cab for Cutie, McGarrigle Sisters, Tom Maxwell and Ken Mosher (formerly from Squirrel Nut Zippers), Ozomatli, Regina Spektor, Jenny Lewis of Rilo Kiley and Tim DeLaughter of The Polyphonic Spree.

Well, it was so nice to see my old friends!  Everyone is exactly the same.  I forgot how mean Celia is to her daughter.  I just want to smack her when she is.  That poor kid.
