Weeds Characters: Character Bios from Weeds on Showtime

Nancy Botwin

Mary-Louise Parker

Don't let the soccer-mom facade fool you — Nancy Botwin is a really big deal. Last season her search for domestic bliss led her south of the border, but she found the grass wasn't greener on the other side. Now she's pregnant with the child of powerful politician turned dangerous drug lord — or is she? One thing is certain: wherever she goes, Nancy's sure to find trouble.

Celia Hodes

Elizabeth Perkins

Nancy's best frenemy Celia has an ear for gossip, a taste for liquor and a nose for everyone else's business. Jealous over Nancy's success, she even went so far as to rat her out to the cops. But somehow Celia was the one who ended up in jail — much to the celebration of her family and close friends.

Doug Wilson

Kevin Nealon

Nancy's friend and business partner has an uncanny inability to think before he speaks. Doug's unfiltered wisecracking lands him — and his good bud Andy — in one sticky situation after another. Perhaps the only thing he loves more than a fat stash is a wad of cash, which is why he's recently embarked on a joint venture with Nancy's son Silas.

Andy Botwin

Justin Kirk

Nancy's irresponsible brother-in-law Andy has been thrown out of Rabbinical school, kicked out of the Army and even started a business smuggling illegal aliens across the border — all in the name of hooking up. He and his good bud Doug are also known to smoke more than their share of the profits from the family business.

Silas Botwin

Hunter Parrish

No one thought Nancy's eldest son Silas would grow up to be the green thumb in the family. He surprised everyone when he joined his mom's business — against her wishes, of course — and proved to be her most valuable asset. The budding young entrepreneur recently teamed up with Doug on a growing new venture. But following in mom's footsteps may prove to be more than he can deal with.

Shane Botwin

Alexander Gould

Shane looks innocent but the youngest Botwin is a strong, level-headed island of sanity adrift in an ocean of craziness. Often too smart for his own good, Shane has his work cut out for him when it comes to keeping the grownups in line.

Isabelle Hodes

Allie Grant

Celia's youngest daughter is a secure, self-assured lesbian — much to her mother's chagrin. She bonds with the equally precocious Shane Botwin as they weather their respective mothers' eccentric, self-obsessed tendencies together.
