By Rich Heldenfels Published: August 22, 2013

The official word: Showtime's smoking hot hit is back with Weeds: The Complete Collection, arriving on Blu-ray Disc (plus Digital HD Ultraviolet) November 5 from Lionsgate Home Entertainment. Including seasons one through eight of the popular cable series, the limited edition Blu-ray collection is a must-have for fans and features 16 discs in a special "glowing" acrylic case package along with all-new bonus content featuring Mary-Louise Parker. Headlined by Parker (Red 2) in her Golden Globe® winning role, Weeds also features a hilarious ensemble cast including Hunter Parrish (It's Complicated), Alexander Gould (Finding Nemo), Justin Kirk (TV's "Animal Practice") and Kevin Nealon (TV's "Saturday Night Live"). In addition, the series boasts strong turns from Elizabeth Perkins (Big), Albert Brooks (Drive, Broadcast News), Demian Bechir (A Better Life, TV's "The Bridge") and Jennifer Jason Leigh (Margot at the Wedding, TV's "Revenge") along with celebrated guest stars including singer/songwriter Alanis Morissette, Mary-Kate Olsen (Beastly), Michelle Trachtenberg (TV's "Gossip Girl") and Zooey Deschanel (TV's "New Girl"). During its final season, the series lit up the ratings, averaging 3.2 million viewers an episode across all platforms.



When Nancy Botwin (Parker) faces both sudden widowhood and poverty, she's determined to do anything to keep her kids in suburbia - including taking on the job of neighborhood pot dealer. Subversive and hilarious, the complete series is as intoxicating as ever, with everyone's favorite pot-selling soccer mom and the rest of the Botwin clan dealing with the mafia, love affairs, the birth of an illegitimate child and relocation after relocation. Watch as the Botwins' plans go up in smoke!



Weeds: The Complete Collection includes 16 discs and is loaded with all-new special features including a discussion with the cast as well as a look at what makes Nancy so desirable and why many of her lovers met an early demise. Weeds: The Complete Collection will be available for the suggested retail price of $119.97.

Don't know if this warrants another purchase for me or not. If those are all the special features, I will probably skip this until it is at a much lower price. This is my all time favorite show, and I have every season individually, and this special set doesn't seem that 'special' to me, but maybe it's too early to decide.
