Shows that feel likeWeeds (2005–2012)

After the unexpected death of her husband, a suburban mom resorts to selling weed to support her family.

If you loved Weeds, the closest series we have are Orange Is the New Black (2013), Arrested Development (2003) and The Gentlemen (2024). All three share Weeds' witty and playful feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Santa Clarita Diet (2017).
