I was at my buddies last night and they were discussing series of the past and most of them I had never seen.
So they gave me a few to watch. Was wondering what the pJ community had to say about these:

Weeds
Californication

Which first?

    I haven't seen Weeds, but Californication is funny as hell. Its completely raunchy but it is very funny. Seems like modern day Boccaccio or something, with the predicaments the characters get into.

    Both shows are worth the time. My wife and I didn't start atching Weeds until halfway thru season 2...so we went and rented the 1st season to get ourselves caught up. You will enjoy both.

    i've seen the first two seasons of weeds and all of californication. i'd say that californication is the better of the two; it has a wicked, witty sense of humour, many great musical references and of course the greatest incorporation of a pj song (nothingman), EVER in television.

    CALIFORNICATION SPOILER WARNING

    in the episode entitled 'in utero' (the show references the 90s grunge scene quite a few times and this scene takes place right after cobain's suicide), the main character flashes back to his first experiences with the love of his life and a tough decision that they make together. at the end, they part ways, and he places a letter in the mail for her as she walks off while nothingman begins to play. it's hard to explain everything, hopefully this helps: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyWS9lfcGog

    Californication always seemed like sex and the city for guys to me. i've seen the 1st season, but that's about it. it was kinda creppy seeing the little girl from the nanny getting down with fox mulder.
    condescending and sarcastic since 1980

    WEEDS. it gets weird at the start of the 4th season and kind of loses its charm, but it's still good.
    Beavis: All my friends are brown and red? What does that mean?
    Butthead: It means that his friends are like turds and that they like suck.
    Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
    Butthead: Huh huh.

    I agree. I love both shows, but earlier Weeds (when it was actually about Weed) was really good. When they brought in the whole Mexican thing and the baby is when the show started to go downhill IMO
