What Are the Best Cannabis TV Shows in DC, Maryland & Virginia?

The term “cannabis TV show” covers everything from scripted comedies to reality series about dispensaries. In the **DMV**, the shows you choose might be influenced by local laws:

### DC specifics — know your rights and watch responsibly

In **Washington DC**, **Initiative 71** allows adults 21+ to possess up to two ounces of cannabis and grow plants at home, but there’s still no traditional retail market. That means gifting and delivery services like Bud Lords are the way to go. When you’re relaxing in **Adams Morgan**, **Columbia Heights**, or **Ward 5**, try shows that reflect DC’s quirky spirit:

* **High Maintenance** – This indie darling follows a New York bike courier known only as “The Guy.” Episodes feel like mini character studies, and the low‑key humor matches a mellow indica.

* **Disjointed** – Kathy Bates runs a cannabis dispensary in Los Angeles. It’s goofy and at times campy, but its focus on community mirrors our own mission.

* **The Gentlemen** – Guy Ritchie’s Netflix series expands his cannabis‑crime universe and features an underground grow op on a British estate【117052461456226†L169-L176】. The slick visuals are perfect with a smooth hybrid.

### Maryland specifics — adult‑use is here

Maryland launched **adult‑use cannabis sales in July 2023**, meaning residents in **Montgomery County**, **Prince George’s County** and beyond can purchase flower, vapes and edibles without a medical card. Grab your gummies and cue up these shows:

* **Weeds** – A suburban widow turns to selling cannabis in this dark comedy. It’s an oldie but a goodie, and its themes of legalization and family drama hit differently now that Maryland has gone recreational.

* **High Hopes** – Executive produced by Jimmy Kimmel, this Hulu reality show follows a real Los Angeles dispensary and its comedic staff【117052461456226†L178-L184】. Think “The Office” but with blunt rolling and customer service snafus.

* **The Midnight Gospel** – Cartoonist Pendleton Ward (Adventure Time) teams up with podcaster Duncan Trussell for a psychedelic, philosophical trip through space and time. One Fiori guide notes that episodes featuring talking cats and existential dread are particularly mind‑bending when you’re elevated【588523692924154†L247-L250】.

### Virginia specifics — the medical program and what’s coming next

Virginia currently allows **medical cannabis sales** through licensed dispensaries. Efforts to legalize adult use have stalled, but you can still enjoy hemp‑derived THC products delivered by Bud Lords in **Alexandria**, **Arlington** and **Reston**. While you wait for full legalization, pair a relaxing hybrid with these picks:

* **Broad City** – This New York–set comedy follows two friends (Abbi and Ilana) through weed‑fueled misadventures. It nails the joy of friendship and herb without leaning on stereotypes.

* **Rick and Morty** – For a cosmic trip, nothing tops this animated sci‑fi comedy. Fiori’s 2025 guide suggests the infamous “Pickle Rick” episode to appreciate twisted humor and bizarre science【588523692924154†L196-L201】.

* **Cooking on High** – Think “Iron Chef” meets edibles. Contestants create cannabis‑infused dishes and a panel of judges gets lit. It’s a fun way to learn what flavors pair well with different strains.
