With a plot ripped from the headlines, Monday’s episode of Weeds brought the hunky Hunter Parrish up to our Morningside Heights campus to confront the leader of a fictionalized Columbia drug ring. Though, the stock footage of campus appears to be outdated. Does anyone remember when exactly we had recycling bins like that?
