Disjointed

I love Kathy Bates. I should get that out of the way right at the start. She always seems to become the character she is playing, and this is no exception. The series starts a little slowly. The stoned laughter at every corny joke from the studio audience makes the show feel a little dated, and at first, the zany cuts to SNL style commercial parodies and animated weirdness can seem a little... well... disjointed. After a couple of episodes; however, the cast comes into focus, and the live sativa, and Grape Ape interludes seep into your brain and you start laughing. This is creeper weed for sure. By the fourth episode, you are surprised to find these characters have dimensions. The ensemble cast is a lot of fun. I especially enjoyed Gulf War Vet/Security Guard Tone Bell Carter, Guru/Grower Dougie Baldwin, and conflicted Asian Hippie Girl Jessica Lu, but the real center is Bates, who never rings false as a hippie pot seller hen always ready to offer a protective wing to her flock. Stick with this one past the goofy laughter from the studio audience and you'll be hooked by the third or fourth episode.

This show was cut TRAGICALLY short! I feel like it was just starting to find it's rhythm and the different character stories were really starting to develop. I binged the entire series when it was first released on Netflix and had a good laugh. Since then, it has become my background noise show and I appreciate it more every time I watch it. It's absolutely brilliant! And for all those whining about the laugh track / live audience, you just don't get it. It's a throwback to the days of simpler television. PLEASE MAKE MORE!

Why on earth has this show been spoiled by the canned laughter? Netflix if you read these reviews - get rid of it. It completely spoils what could otherwise be an excellent show. Kathy Bates is great, I'm so used to seeing her in American Horror Story that it is nice to see her in a comedy and the two stoners Dabby and Dank are quirky and unusual.

I usually despise sitcoms, especially with laugh tracks and the such, but when I first started smoking pot, this show was my favorite one for sure. Definitely learned a couple things about pot from watching this, but mostly it was just classic stoner comedy. Kathy Bates is awesome!

I don't watch a lot of TV, and I certainly don't watch sitcoms. But, this is a fun, stupid, and hilarious show. It aims to be exactly that, and achieves it. It's not going to make you think much, and it's not going to be transcending sitcom boundaries.

The cast is subtle at times and outrageous at other times; a good ensemble here. People whining about Kathy Bates' elderly hippie schtick clearly don't get out much, because she's great here. And people whining about the laugh track? Jeez, I didn't even notice it because I was busy laughing.

Lighten up/light up and enjoy. We don't see "traditional" sitcoms like this anymore without the usual "ironic upgrades" or pretentious attempts to "break boundaries". It's not a ten, but I don't think it's aiming for that; it's exactly what it is, so enjoy it for that.
