COMMUNITY REVIEWS
A very dark soap opera about drugs
submitted by Jen Chapin-Smith on August 29, 2012, 1:59pm
SPOILER ALERT: Season 5 ends with Shane becoming a druggie and murderer (he already killed his teacher's pet bird), Andy proposing to a doctor and Celia setting up her own drug sales team.
Warning: this show is about illegal drug use. It contains a lot of explicit, promiscuous sex and violence. The characters also use a lot of curse words and pejorative terms for people of color, women and gays.
The show is about a suddenly widowed suburban mother who must quickly find a job. Without a college degree, the only thing she can find is selling marijuana. This illegal work draws her family into the criminal underground with all the problems, including being the victims of violence and eventually losing their house, that come with it. That said, it is a fascinating soap opera that portrays the "haves" and "have nots" of southern California and the racial diversity of the area. It even has a few gay characters.
