Showtime High For "Weeds"

Between getting her DEA agent husband killed and participating in a drive-by shooting, Nancy Botwin must be doing something right.

Pay cabler Showtime has renewed dark comedy Weeds for a fourth season, ordering 13 episodes of the Mary-Louise Parker-led ensemble comedy.

Network is targeting a summer 2008 launch for the fourth season of Weeds, with production to begin in April. That of course, depends on the outcome of the current writers strike.

Weeds' current season, pegged at an expanded 15 episodes, is currently in full swing on Monday nights at 10 pm ET/PT on Showtime.

What I'll Be Watching

8 pm: Chuck.

On tonight's episode ("Chuck Versus the Alma Mater"), Chuck returns to where his life seemingly went wrong: Stanford, where he must help a college professor and learns that perhaps it wasn't an accident that Bryce Larkin, the man behind most of his life's misfortune, sent him the Intersect.

9:30 pm: Samantha Who?

On tonight's episode ("The Virgin"), Samantha can't seem to recall sex (pesky amnesia) and has to figure out to approach her second first time.

10 pm: Journeyman.

It's Kevin McKidd (Rome) as a time-traveling newspaper reporter in a drama that's more about human interactions and the nature of choice than, say, technicolored time machines. On tonight's episode ("Double Down"), Katie decides whether or not to return to work as a television journalist, while Dan has to save a witness' life and Jack investigates Dan's life.

10 pm: Weeds on Showtime.

The third season of Showtime's acclaimed comedy, Weeds continues. On tonight's episode ("Risk"), Nancy comes to terms with her new business arrangement, Helia adjusts to her new locale, and Andy chases a biker chick.
