High Maintenance

Great vibe, funny, honest, laid back, chill, positive. One of the best series that shows the vibe and atmsophere of New York. It reminds me of Master of None sometimes. And like someone already said in comments, it gives you the feeling of high without being high. And of course, especially good if you are high. Absolute recommendation!

Through the lens of a weed dealer , we see all walks of life in New York City , it's a show truly show the people as they are ,not some writer's character, yet very entertaining, some funny ,some sad ,some ordinary.The writing is so strong in this show , You can just tell ,Ben is have a blast making it !

I find this show to have some of the most unique and interesting writing I've seen anywhere. I don't know how the scripts were developed, but my sense is that the actors were improvising and the scripts evolved out of that. It's hard to believe that all this could have come from the minds of one or two people, unless they are geniuses. I can't think of anything else I've seen that is so effective at giving the viewer a sense of truly being a "fly on the wall", getting actual glimpses of the lives real people live. Often, the scenes are utterly unpredictable, and the situations are hilarious, in a fresh, unforced way that doesn't feel "written" at all. It's really something special. A very intelligent show.

It is so misleading to say this show is about a pot dealer. As if Thornton Wilders' "Our Town" is about a janitor. Yeah, there's plenty of smoke and some exposition about the nuances of sativa and indica blends, but rather the Guy is the perfect, contemporary observer who weaves together wonderful, sweet stories of people coping in the big city, but with such a buoyant spirit I just want to drop what I'm doing and move to Brooklyn, which is more of a magical state of mind than a brick, asphalt and concrete borough of NYC.

I've read some disappointments with the highly produced HBO continuation of the original web series. Well yeah, the original first season was delightful, brilliant with the atmosphere that was accomplished with no budget and compressed into 8 minute episodes. I would have been happy if it stayed in that space. But kudos to HBO for recognizing the talent here, investing in it, and allowing this team to see where it can go with all the tools they could use. They took it to an excellent place and I can't wait until season 3.

This tv show is so good. I love the laid back and random way each episode evolves. you can't predict anything it is totally fresh and refreshing to watch. well written and acted. and just re upped for a 3rd season boom!
