    On November 5, 2007, Showtime ordered 13 new episodes for a fourth season of Weeds. It started on Monday, June 16, 2008 and concluded on Monday, September 15, 2008. The season opener "Mother Thinks the Birds are After Her" was the last episode with "Little Boxes" as the theme song. The opening credits of subsequent episodes, after a recap of previous episodes, begin with a video title card unique to each episode. For the second episode of the season, for example, a highway sign reads "Weeds -- Created by Jenji Kohan" — the embedded text used for all title cards since the show's inception. Each title card also has a prop or part of the setting that refers to a plot element in the episode. Some part of the title card morphs into a marijuana leaf. In the highway sign example, a downward arrow designating a lane becomes a slightly larger pot leaf. Silas and Shane are aged 17 and 13 respectively. However, Silas turns 18 at the end of the season.

    What the hell had Mary-Louise Parker been thinking when she agreed to star in this awful, awful series?! ... This awfully, awfully pathetic series?! Weeds is an utter disgrace to the performing arts, and its cancellation is way past due. A perfect example of Coonery and Buffoonery in the modern era, Weeds is horribly racist, and insultingly derogatory. Its effect is nothing more than bitter loathsomeness. This series is by far one of the most disgusting that I've ever had the displeasure of viewing. And if there is even one drop of justice in the Motion Picture Arts, each one of its Master copies will be cremated to ashes - or at least cellared, that they will never again be utilized for the purpose of reproduction to future generations of television viewers. Jenji Kohan, are you serious? You actually created this detritus? Mary-Louise Parker, you're much better than this. SHOWTIME, Shame on every decision-making member of your operating body. Lest I be misunderstood by any, I should also add that here is a VERY (emphasis on very) thin line between satire and coonery. Weeds exhibits the latter.
