'Weeds' - Why Is Nancy Smiling? - VIDEO Update 8.09.12 - Season 8 Episodes #2 - #3 Synopses PHOTOS #weeds @SHO_Weeds @SHO_Kareem

 

Mary-Louise Parker as Nancy Botwin in Weeds - Season 8 (Showtime)

 As promised, it appears as if our Miss Nancy (Mary-Louise Parker) is well on the road to recovery when we meet up with her in Weeds Season 8, Episode 2, 'A Beam Of Sunshine'. According to showrunner Jenji Kohan, it is a few months into Nancy's recovery & rehab, though she is pictured with a walker which IMO, gives us a pretty realistic gauge of how close she came to the end of her life. It sure is great to see her smiling! Something tells me that Nancy's life, on the most personal level--her psyche--has undergone possibly the biggest change in the seven-plus seasons we've been watching Weeds. Can't wait to find out!

I'm including some harrowing photo-stills via Showtime from episode one just after the episode 2 and 3 synopses and after the jump (scroll down and click them to enlarge).

I also have a total of six brand new photo stills for episode 2 (with the credits attached to each). Enjoy!
