Growing Belushi

The whole family enjoyed! Its nice to see cannabis in a different light

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.

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.

If you aren't into cannabis, then you may not like it. Yes he starts out bumbling his way through the process with under qualified help but that's part of the shtick. If you watch both seasons all the way through you realize he gets serious about how to grow and hires a pro team to build his facilities. Then the vault burns down and pretty sure that wasn't scripted.

Haven't watched his According To Jim TV show but I find him quite funny and Chris is the best straight man you can find. Belushi has lots of energy and keeps things rolling along. Never cared for reality shows but this one is entertaining even though the sister/brother rivalry is a bit is a reach. The trip to Columbia was enlightening.

Really want to see another season.

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 .
