When Colorado legalized marijuana, it only seemed logical that Hollywood would be calling.
Word leaked last year that a Hollywood studio was developing a pilot about the day-to-day operations of a marijuana dispensary in Denver. The rumor’s now reality.
The burgeoning Colorado marijuana industry will take a comedic turn in “Buds,” a comedy project bought by NBC for the 2015-16 development cycle.
According to a story on Deadline.com, “‘Parks & Recreation’ co-star Adam Scott is teaming with the departing NBC comedy writer Joe Mande on the show, which hails from Gettin’ Rad Productions, Scott’s production company with his producer wife, Naomi Scott. This marks the first sale under the first-look deal Gettin’ Rad inked with Universal TV last fall.
“Written by writer-comedian Mande, ‘Buds’ revolves around the day-to-day operations of a marijuana dispensary in Denver. He is executive producing with the Scotts.”
