vis-a-vis an earlier review: if you typically watch, and laugh at, shows like "how i met your mother" or "big bang theory", this show isn't for you. simple as. there is no laugh track. there is no set-up for one-line zingers. the characters are real... they have jobs, use the toilet, pay bills, have unattractive sex, and (of course) get high. each episode is a different length. this is not determined by the attention span of the average American sit-com viewer, but by the amount of time the creators felt was sufficient to convey a single point/humorous scenario. there are no pratfalls, and characters aren't easily labeled (the funny guy, the cute one, the spoiled sassy girl, etc). so, if you're looking for something to hold you over until the next season of whatever kevin james is starring in this year, then look elsewhere. and enjoy your mccomedy.
I can't find the words to describe how good this series is. The freedom of being able to make each episode just as long as it needs to be provides a lot of good returns in terms of the narrative. Weed plays a prominent part in the stories in terms of stringing them together, but it is far from the only thread, and each episode is a hilarious, depressing,or somewhere in between, slice of life. The characters run from archetype New Yorkers to some serious weirdos, both of which can exist in the same person. The dealer and main character played flatly and beautifully by Ben Sinclair is both a kind of a low key superhero, and a deus e machicna that lights the bong in each tale. This is far and away the best web series I've seen, and possibly the most artistic.

The story telling is so weird and intervowen - not like those horrible emsamble movies where at the end you find out the are All connected.
i was looking for something fresh and new, and i came across with this.
Since i always like to try new TV shows or at least give them a chance.. so i did it,and im glad ;)
Every single episode is different but in each one you will find the most uplifting soundtrack ever! Sometimes you just want something easy and fresh to watch , and i found this show a truly example of that .
Hope you like this and give this show the credit it deserves I gave this a 10 star based on how i felt after watched every single episode of the 1st season ...pure joy:)
thank you

I really enjoyed this show. Yes the first episode was not the best, but I still enjoyed it enough to watch another. Soon enough, I found myself finishing the whole first season within one day. The show is more so about residents in New York than about just the dealer so it feels like 2 short films in each episodes. It's both funny and depressing. Definitely not what you want if you're looking for a Seth Rogan type of stoner comedy. A lot of the negative reviews here came from people who didn't make it past the first episode or bothered by the explicit gay sex scene. I personally really liked this show though and can't wait for more.
