Very witty sitcom that may take a couple of episodes to get hooked - but well worth the effort.
Johnny Vegas finally gets a role suited to his quick wits (and he is finally sober enough to deliver them well). He plays the hapless stoner, Moz, who is generally a decent guy but with some quite dodgy mates/customers. Constantly stoned, Moz just wants a simple work-free life but his mellow is constantly interrupted by his customers and high-strung girlfriend.
There are a few 'red herring' story-lines that lead the viewer astray, but there is also a central backbone story that drifts along at its own pace - but enough for the audience to want to see what happens.
Full of subtle humour and wit, ideal is perfect for anyone with patients and a love of clever comedy.

This show is extremely unique, because it's a drama/soap opera. I would never really label it as a comedy. Watch it though, the plot is incredibly intriguing, but just isn't as funny as anything else on telly.
As a pot smoker I relate. I'm UK but like USA hum our instead. So this was a gem find and watch
Love it..I'd watch 20 seasons if they made 20!
What can i say.....this show cant really be put into words... Not your average sitcom.... strange,deranged, depraved, funny and just...just great! Light up a joint and join the drugged up adventures of moz the drugdealer and his customers...
The show truly reflects the life of a weed dealer. People who won't leave, people who shut up, people who never have any money. No cash no hash! Not to mention he never leaves his apartment for the most part. There is hyperbole and drama to the extreme, but the world and characters graham duff created are original and hilarious. And clearly the premise is grounded in personal experiences.
