Weed dealers occupy a strange role in the lives of their clients. Of course, they’re the purveyor of a substance that’s illegal in many jurisdictions, but the relationship with their customers tends to be more like casual acquaintance than a firmly business oriented one. And then there’s the fact that the job tends to take all them over town to the unlikeliest of places.
And that seems to be just the kind of subject matter HBO‘s upcoming comedy “High Maintenance” touches upon. The breezy series is created by and stars Ben Sinclair as a weed deliveryman whose gig takes him to all corners of New York City. Here’s the synopsis:
Providing a glimpse into the homes and routines of eccentric New Yorkers, the comedy series HIGH MAINTENANCE explores the private lives of these unique individuals through a common thread: their weed deliveryman. Ben Sinclair stars as The Guy, whose client base includes a group of characters with neuroses as diverse as the city.
HIGH MAINTENANCE was created by the married duo of Katja Blichfeld (Emmy®-winning casting director of “30 Rock”) and Ben Sinclair (“Sisters,” “The Big C”), who write and direct every episode of the new season, and executive produced by Katja Blichfeld, Ben Sinclair and Russell Gregory.
“High Maintenance” debuts on September 16th at 11 PM.
