Well, if it get's people to lighten up about it and laugh...
Cheech and Chong are now some of the biggest leaders in the industry and even did time for the cause. I mean, yah on one hand I see how they are making fun of stereotypes (which completely exist), and the other bringing a very human aspect to a smokers life, or more specifically people in the "legal" game.
@william76 The show is about a baby-boomer marijuana activist/attorney who owns/operates a marijuana dispensary. It follows the business and the people that work there. It's definitely over the top with the stereotyping but I think it's funny. It's like "that 70's Show" style.

Kathy Bates is terrific. Also, Tone Bell plays "Carter" on the show who is the dispensaries security guard who suffers from PTSD. Not really a spoiler because as soon as you find out he was deployed (in Afghanistan) you see where this is going. But yah, they make fun of stereotypes which is actually like calling them out for being so ridiculous. They also portray that MJ helps. You can be the judge. It made me laugh.
