Yeah this show is kickass, I like the story with the black guy and his mom who disapproves of the whole thing, that was some good tv.

Does anyone know of a second season or if that tax broke them out of existence? I don't wanna sound dumb but I'd like to think that was just a cliffhanger.

I wonder how they pulled that off or if the publicity had any effect; it's good news regardless. I'm still baffled that there're people endorsing stricter prohibitionist policy.

i watched the first 3 eps tonight, deff cool show. I like that discovery channel is showing the positive side to (Medical) Marijuana
If i worked there I would want the "buyers" job, he gets to see all the new strains and He can pick and choose what the store buys. Plus getting "samples" all day would be awesome  .
I also like how growers can go there, and sell their smoke to the store like that, thats pretty cool....

Then towards the end of the ep he gets caught stealing a p of weed for his pain pill addiction, and gets canned ...

It was so painful too watch, I was really high and super embarrassed for him when he was trying to smoke it like meth. When he finally realized how to do it and he got smoke and the music played it felt so good, but I still feel someone should have helped him. I mean if a professional smoker sat down with him, showed him how to pack a bowl and smoke it properly. Give him a few days trying some different strains and getting used to cannabis before moving onto hash.
He was like- "That hash really zombifies me."

yeah, it is! It focuses on all the drama behind the business. It really takes the fun out of it, imo. the last episode I saw was about one of the purchasers for the club. that'd be such a dream job for soooo many of us. and he tried to steal from them.

not yet i don't think... fuck i was thinking they cancelled this show for some reason. glad that they aren't... i haven't said "oh shit" this many times, ever.
this is me right now watching this shit... 
makes me want to move to California, for fucks sakes.
i'm watching this old guy get high now, on hash... he says that he didn't get the "spiritual awakening" that he was hoping for with straight weed and decided he needed something stronger. 
hilarious... he's so baked right away... i'm almost jealous. waits all his life to try Cannabis once, as a spiritual awakening.
awesome.

yeah! I watched that one last night. I wanted to ask him if he'd tried psychedelics. I haven't met anyone who had a spiritual awakening of any kind from cannabis. but im sure there are a lot of people that are extra sensitive to it. That show made it look as if the producers flew him out here to cali, to stay long enough to get a script and try some weed. Then when he didn't like it he decides to go back home to his family?! Really weird. i mean, how much research does someone have to do to find out that you don't smoke weed like meth?

From an online article I just googled weed wars is being sued by a producer that developed the show originally for discovery channel and then she got edged out the deal and they moved on without her renaming the show Weed Wars, the original show was called Greener Pastures.
This sucks I love Weed Wars I was just talking to a budtender yesterday about how funny it was...... the budtender said the show was bullshit maybe he's was jealous.

I hate to resurrect an old thread but THIS^^^!!!!
I just watched these episodes on Netflix and these guys are total assholes. They only want medical legal so they can keep making fat stacks at their bullshit club. He literally said "I don't smoke to get 'high'" but throughout the entire show they just act like a bunch of stoners. "Oh I can't figure out what tie to wear I better smoke a bowl..." How the fuck is smoking before your wardrobe selection medicinal?
Honestly I think they embarrassed themselves and did way more damage than good to the reputation of cannabis.
Rant over.

After reading this thread I decided to watch the show on Netflix,
I wouldn't nessacaraly say it was "a piece of shit" but it was rather silly.
Granted I have only watched the first episode of it.
And as far as why that Steve guy didn't support recreational use I'm sure is just simpally a PR move.
He would be eaten alive saying that being the owner of the largest megial store in the world.

Most people in the mj game for profit won't support recreational use. Simply because they know it will bring prices down, cutting profit margins.

But theses guys aren't in it for profit supposedly.
According to this show in California medical shops have to be 100% nonprofit.
They made something like 21 million but are having trouble with coming up with 1 million for texes.
Also most of the medical stores around where I live (Colorado) plan on opening up addions to their current stores once the recreational laws go into place to serve those customers too.
They just need to have separate doors and bud bars fornthe different types of customrrs,
the recreational customers will also be paying more due to taxes medical customers will not be experiencing.

You really believe that? Come on now...
Either way, I can't get over these idiots telling me cannabis isn't an intoxicant when they're clearly using it as one throughout the entire show. Straight hypocrites.

Not quite.
Weed should be completely legal for responsible adults.
It should still be a no-no for minors.
