sounds like they are abandoning the entire past of the show which seems bad
well, they kinda did a scorched earth strat with last season... it didn't even seem like they thought they were going to do another season based on that ending.. I thought the series was over...

The way Showtime rushed the ending of this and Californication was infuriating. Particularly Weeds. They may have even lost me. An absolutely horrific piece of television.
For me the ending of Californication was much, much worse. Driving into the sunset with the ex-wife and daughter was ridiculous.I kind of like the idea of Weeds moving on to a new location. Agrestic (I think that was the name of the town) was getting dull. Plus it was more realistic for them to eventually get caught in one way or another.Maybe the new season will suck, but I think it'll be better than if they stayed.

I think Californication's ending is probably going to hurt the series more, because it effectively ended the lone working dynamic of the show; i.e. Hank's drunken, longing unhappiness, but as far as being an actual piece of entertainment, the Californication finale wasn't that horrible, whereas Weeds was completely WTF.

agreed and agreed... I don't know how Californication can possibly make another season...Weeds.. well... I mean.. all of their plots seem rushed.... they burn through plot lines so fast, I didn't see that the finale was that out of whack with the way the series opperates. I will miss kevin nealon

Uh oh, I guess i didn't put two and two together correctly. I was hoping that they would find a place for him still. The show may go down hill without his comical genius showing up. Oh well, I will still watch it.

All right, I agree with the criticism but you have to ACKNOWLEDGE THE WRITER'S STRIKE...Weeds & Clfnctn are still much better than 87% of network shows.

Last night I was invited to a screening of the 1st episode of the new season, plus a Q&A with some of the cast. We had: Elisabeth Perkins (Celia), Kevin Nealon (Doug), Justin Kirk (Andy), Alexander Gould (Shane) and Allie Grant (Isabelle). It was at the SAG foundation in Hwood and although I'm not a SAG member I got lucky that my friend was allowed a guest. So basically a room full of actors and me :)New episode was great, if anyone wants spoilers let me know but I don't want to piss off anyone...Just a few things... the title sequence with the "Little Boxes" song alone had the crowd roaring with laughter. Those guys are creative with a capital C! Albert Brooks of course doesn't dissapoint and there was even a poker reference or two.The panel was equally hilarious, thanks to Kevin who never stops throwing out funny remarks to serious "Actors Questions? I've seen comedy shows that weren't half as funny as this. I highly recommend tuning back in when it comes back next week.

From everything I've read about the new season, little boxes is no longer the themesong because of the change in setting this year.

I love this show. Caught the start of season 3 last year, and just decided to go rent seasons 1-2 then watch s3 on torrents. It is like 50x better than just about any network show. Great cast too
