Growing Belushi

I tuned in not really knowing what to expect. Immediately you can see it is totally scripted in a reality show type of way and every one is playing to the camera. But at the same time, I found it really funny. Jim basically plays a goofy guy trying to run his marijuana business and show his love of marijuana. Is it a documentary or showing you how to run a marijuana business - not at all. If you want something light to watch with everything going on in the world, and are interested in just seeing beautiful trees (pot), grow rooms and dispensaries with Jim's comedy on the side, you will enjoy it. Not for everyone, but not bad none the less.

It's a silly look at starting a grow op. Very entertaining though. His family thinks him a joke, even staging an intervention. But slowly becomes a legit business, and I know this because even here in PA, my dispensary carries Belushi Farms product.

Yes it's corny at times, but a cool look inside the grow business. Also the quest to find the seeds for the blues Brothers strain is a funny adventure across mexico😅😅

Some people bash it for being too scripted, but it is a reality show after all. It's meant to entertain, and in that aspect I think it succeeds. I was actually very happy to see that his business has grown to the point where I'm seeing his product on the east coast.

This show is pretty low cal and the scripting can be embarrassing now. It's fun and silly and I enjoy any show that has some traveling. I find it interesting to see other parts of the world and culture, even if it is brief. This show could be improved by some additional takes to alleviate the awkwardness of scripting non-actors. Don't listen to the haters, not everything has to be perfect or great. This show is simple and fun, don't look much deeper.

Additionally, some of the growing content is very basic, but it's a great way to lift the shroud of of the cannabis industry and shed some light. I think this is very beneficial for those that might think cannabis is scary or evil. Medically retired LEO here. Thank you cannabis for taking care of my nerve pain and allowing me to return to a semblance of my previous physically active lifestyle .

Those were my intentions until I finally found the remote control and changed the channel. I was excited to watch the show after seeing the previews, but it's neither educational nor funny in any way, shape or form.

Keep in mind that Belushi is an actor/comedian and not a farmer. What we have on the show is a clueless and bumbling city guy trying to be a pot farmer. He tosses money around instead of knowledge and hires lazy family members instead of solid workers. But, it's somewhat enjoyable to watch. And Dan Ackroyd shows up occasionally which is really a plus! We're into season 2 now and it's more grade school T-Ball action than anything. But, I'm a Jim and Dan fan and I find it enjoyable enough to keep watching. Will it ever become a 'real farm'? Time will tell!
