Weeds is a show about a housewife named Nancy Botwin, whose husband dies, shattering her perfect world resulting in her having to get a job but rather than going to typical office job she realizes her beauty can be much more utilized in the marijuana business.
Nancy Botwin is potrayed as the stereotypical suburb mom with the slight difference of dealing pot. In the show, Nancy is always seen his her cup of iced coffee, she serves on her kid's school PTSA, loves driving her Range Rover, and attends her kid's sporting events. She was basically the spokeswoman for all suburb moms around the world.
Throughout the show Nancy has many lovers and husbands. One that stood above the others was Esteban Reyes the mayor of Tijuana, Mexico. Esteban was being ethnically stereotyped by the show creating into a character who was also a drug lord, ran female trafficking, distant from his children, obsessed with power, and sole leader of the household.
