If you ask any stoner what they're doing on a Friday night, don't be surprised if the most common answer is sitting in the living room's couch smoking weed and watching series until they fall into a deep sleep. Party invitation? Maybe next time, you know what I'm saying.
It's not that us stoners are boring, it's just we know to be wiser and do what we'd rather do instead of committing to plans that we'll later want to rather ditch for, guess what, getting high and chilling at home.
It's as if watching series and smoking weed were meant to be together forever. However, it isn't uncommon to be completely fried off your brain browsing through whichever TV streaming app you use and finding it quite hard to choose something to watch.
This is why we've created a list of our favorite series and TV shows for when you're high and looking for something entertaining to watch. Don't worry, we're not going to spoil anything so read on.
Recommendations Before You Sit!
Don't forget to get fully ready so that you can immerse yourself completely into the world of chillaxation. In order to do so, grab the following things:
- Water! That joint will leave you feeling thirsty so save yourself the trip to the kitchen later.
- The rolling kit, who knows if you'll want to go for a second toke?
- Snacks! Them munchies won't be attended by themselves.
- Ashtray, no one likes the smell of ash in their house.
- Comfortable clothes, there's no fashion show going on that we haven't heard of right? Chuck on those PJs.
Okay our beloved disciple, you're good to go now!
1. Rick and Morty
If you like watching comedy animated series like Family Guy or The Simpsons but you're looking for something slightly different then the answer you're looking for is Rick and Morty.
This American show was created by Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon back in 2013, and ever since we've been delighted to enjoy what these guys have to offer. Rick and Morty is one of our favorite shows because of its uniqueness and crazy storylines, its dark and smart humor, and epic characters.
Once you watch a few episodes and get the hang of it we can assure you won't be able to stop, says who's watched the entire 41 episode series more than 4 times. Will anything ever come closer to our hearts than Rick and Morty? We're not sure.
Rick and Morty fits in the sci-fi section without a doubt, portal guns, traveling through the universe, aliens, and potions are all some of the common elements you'll find in it. But if there's something this series isn't is dorky or cliché, and if anything is cliché, it is definitely intended. Be ready to be mind blown with the craziest stories ever told.
Anyway, what is Rick and Morty really about?
The Plot (no spoilers)
Rick Sanchez is the smartest human in the entire universe, and after a 20-year comeback into his daughter's life, Rick moves into Beth's family home, where he'll build his lab and incubator for all the sci-fi gadgets he's going to use in his later adventures.
Rick seems to have a special bond with his grandson Morty, who becomes his adventure partner on their missions to save the different problems that arise through the galaxy.
Enough said, we think it's time you roll yourself and whoever's Netflix and chilling with you a tasty Zkittlez Auto joint and get ready to travel through the universe. And as Morty would say, "don't even trip, dawg" you'll enjoy it 100%.
2. Breaking Bad (1982)
Now if you yet haven't watched just one of the best series ever to be made then what even are you doing with your life?! We're not exaggerating, not only is the story amazing and hooking, but the style and way it was shot, a.k.a the cinematography, shows that the minds behind it truly knew what they were doing.
The first episode was released already 12 years ago, in 2008, and to this day we haven't yet seen anything able to top it, come at us Game of Thrones' fans, we're not scared.
This neo-western series has won several awards since its creation, which is attributed to Vince Gilligan, who not only wrote most of the script but produced the show and even directed some of the episodes. If 110 awards, including 16 Emmys and 2 Golden Globes, don't scream 'the best series ever made' then I don't know what does.
The Plot
After school chemistry teacher Walter White, played by Bryan Cranston, discovers that he has terminal lung cancer, his life takes a big turn.
As he tries to find ways to leave a legacy for his wife, son, and soon to be born baby, Walter bumps into an ex-student and junkie, Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul) who introduces him to the world of meth-cooking.
When Mr. White realizes that his product is the best in the market and the amounts of money involved in the business, what he thought to be a one time fling ends up developing into a much more complicated and full of twists story. So-long to the sticking-by-the-rules Walter and hello to the expert in cooking and dealing meth, Heisenberg.
Warning!Be careful or before you realize you might have watched an entire season of Breaking Bad and the second in queue.
Definitely do pull out your tastiest Crystal Meth Auto buds, pack your bong, and blast through the episodes of your soon-to-be new favorite series.
3. Trailer Park Boys
Now, Trailer Park Boys is another series about drug deals, only sliiightly different than the ones you'll see in Breaking Bad.
This Canadian show was created by Mike Clattenburg and released back in 2001. It started off as a low-key TV mockumentary, but little did they know that it would end up hitting the stars when Netflix spotted it and bought the rights to stream and produce it.
The Plot
The show is a fake documentary that follows the adventures of Julian (John Paul Tremblay), Ricky (Robb Wells), and Bubbles (Mike Smith), three residents at the fictional Sunnyvale Trailer Park in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia.
Shot in a real documentary way, with low definition cameras and microphones coming into shot, we witness the attempts for these ex-convicts to become rich and sort out their life forever, a.k.a. the 'Freedom 35' plan. However, it seems as if they can't escape breaking the law, especially Ricky, who's a master in the field of marijuana cultivation.
Spoiler alert! Kidding, but if there are any doubts that this is a stoners' show, Snoop Dogg himself making an appearance in a couple of episodes along with Doug Benson should shrug off any confusion.
Get ready to laugh your lungs out with these crazy Canadians as you spark up the oh-so high on THC Gorilla Cookies Auto.
4. Black Mirror
Now if you're into science fiction but you're looking for something slightly more 'real' than Rick and Morty then perhaps something like Black Mirror is what you should check out.
The best part about Black Mirror is that every episode is unrelated to the others, so you can watch one of them every now and then, without any commitments, great for those of us with commitment issues. And since every episode has its own storyline, there are episodes suitable for everyone's taste.
This dystopian sci-fi anthology was created by the British Charlie Brooker and first released in 2011. The show consists of 5 seasons, with a total of 22 episodes that vary in length and theme. However, all of them involve technology in some way and their main idea is to criticize and demonstrate how it affects our lives.
Black Mirror's Top 5 Episodes, No Spoilers
Since each episode is different from the previous and the latter, you might feel a little bit lost with what to start with. While some people would recommend going in chronological order, there is really no reason to do this, so you can jump straight into the best ones.

5. That '70s Show
Now if the future isn't really your thing, and you're quite the opposite, more of a retro head like some of us, then what are you waiting to play That '70s Show now!?
This is such a stoners' show it's even heartwarming that someone was so considerate to create such a beautiful thing. That '70s Show was first released in 1998 but it achieves to prevail in time for many reasons.
First, its all-stars cast, including the famous couple Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis, Laura Prepon, Topher Grace and Danny Masterson, keeps attracting new audiences. And let's not forget Tommy Chong from Cheech and Chong's participation as Leo, the recurring pothead who's friends with the gang.
The Synopsis
Eric Forman (Topher Grace) is a high school kid who spends most of his time hanging with his friends in his house's basement, where they like to gather in a circle and fill up the room with smoke.
Set in Wisconsin in the 1970s, the series is the best portrayal of what being a teenage stoner is like. You'll definitely feel identified with many of the guys' experiences on the show, and without a doubt, they'll keep you laughing hard.
Light up some tasty Lemon Pie Auto buds and fly back to the '70s to enjoy the good old days with the gang from That '70s Show.
7. In Conclusion
