'Weeds' Series Finale: Did Nancy Pay for Her Sins?

After eight seasons, Showtime's Weeds wrapped its run Sunday with an hourlong finale that brought back several faces from Agrestic to Connecticut -- where, after a time jump, little Stevie is now preparing for his bar mitzvah. In the penultimate episode (the series' 100th), Andy (Justin Kirk) and Nancy (Mary-Louise Parker) finally consummated their relationship after years of will-they-or-won't-they tension, as drug-dealing mother of three started to go legitimate with a legalized-pot business.

Weeds (TV series) The show is inspired by crime series such as The Shield and The Sopranos, in the sense of an antihero serving as the protagonist while retaining an individual moral code, which usually goes against the norms of society.
