Weeds is an American dark comedy television series about a widowed housewife from an affluent California suburb who becomes an upper-middle-class marijuana dealer to make ends meet.
It began with a 10-episode first season in August 2005. It was the highest rated series for Showtime that year. A 12-episode second season followed in August 2006, and a third season consisting of 15 episodes premiered on August 13, 2007. The season 3 premiere episode attracted 824,000 Showtime subscribers to the show. It was announced on November 5, 2007 that Showtime had picked up the show for a fourth season consisting of 13 episodes and will begin on June 16th, 2008.
The exteriors for the show are shot almost exclusively in Stevenson Ranch, a suburban area of Santa Clarita Valley, California. The shot of the large fountain and Agrestic sign seen in the introduction was shot at the corner of Stevenson Ranch Parkway and Holmes Place. The name 'Stevenson Ranch', was digitally replaced with 'Agrestic'Â and with 'Majestic' in later episodes.
The overhead, satellite picture displayed at the beginning of the show's introduction is of "Calabasas Hills", a gated community in Calabasas, California.
