Weeds and Secret Diary of a Call Girl: Previews for tonight’s episodes

by jill on August 4th, 2008

Hi folks, happy(?) Monday. Banish any sense of weekday dread with this little afternoon break, brought to you by my buddy Chandra at Grrl TV. She’s posted the teasers to tonight’s episodes of Weeds and Secret Diary of a Call Girl. Here are the deets:

The August 4 episode of Weeds called I Am the Table is full of firsts.

Nancy and Esteban head out on their first “date,” but the occasion is spoiled when gunfire rings out at the restaurant they’re eating in.

Elsewhere, Andy and Doug complete their first smuggling project, Silas reveals his first secret to Lisa when he tells her about his pot-growing endeavors, Celia becomes obsessed with something for the first time, and Shane has a good first day at his new school.

There’s an American in London on episode 8 of Secret Diary of a Call Girl, and he tries to help hooker Belle (I pronounce “hooker Belle” with the same stress pattern as “Tinkerbell,” which makes it roll right off the tongue) increase her income potential now that the fallout from the Internet catastrophe during “Episode 6″ has finally subsided.

Mr. American is a film producer named Mitchell, and he convinces hooker Belle she should try to get accepted into a group of international prostitutes who are paid heaps of money for servicing filthy rich johns.

Hooker Belle makes the cut, too, after much effort on her part. Unfortunately, she quickly learns that those with heaps of money to spend on whores also have heaps of demands, and devoting heaps of time and energy to meeting those demands conflicts with the independent, self-empowered image she has of herself and her life.

So, how long will hooker Belle last as an elite courtesan? I’m guessing not long at all.

Intrigued? Bounce on over to Grrl TV to watch two video teasers each for Weeds and Secret Diary. Happy(!) Monday.
