Netflix has co-created a set of cannabis strains based on a selection of its most popular original shows.

The set, called The Netflix Collection, will be sold as part of a pop-up event at Alternative Herbal Health Services in West Hollywood from 25-27 August to legal medical marijuana card-holding customers. Federal laws prevent the products being available by mail and Netflix will not be profiting from any of the sales.

“Each strain was cultivated with the specific shows in mind, designed to complement each title based on their tone,” a press release read. “For example, sillier shows may be more indica dominant, while dramedies will be more sativa dominant to help the more powerful scenes resonate.”

The shows featured include Orange is the New Black, which has spawned Poussey Riot, meant for “kicking it with somebody, talking, making mad stupid jokes”, Arrested Development, which has been labelled Banana Stand Kush ideally for a “big yellow joint” and Grace and Frankie, the Peyotea 73 – an “uplifting sativa hybrid”.

Other strains are inspired by Bojack Horseman, Lady Dynamite and cannibal comedy Santa Clarita Diet, which will “really ramp up your appetite”.

The collection also features three varieties based on new show Disjointed, a sitcom starring Kathy Bates as the owner or a marijuana dispensary, the inspiration for the pop-up event. The show, from The Big Bang Theory’s Chuck Lorre, has received mixed reviews. The New York Times’ James Poniewozik called it “a mess of a comedy that doesn’t feel as if it belongs anywhere”.

 

[HiiiLife]

Is there a death note strain

 

[wwm0nkey]

Can I get this added onto my sub?

 

[FelipeMGM]

Has anyone watched the show yet?

I was interested based on the premise, but then I learned it was a Chuck Lorre type of show...

Also, I need me some of that Banana Stand Kush

 

[Puck Beaverton]

Will smoking 13 Reasons Why make me even more suicidal?

 

[ChubbyHuggs]

Trying to cover their debt by going into the drug game. I see you.

I knew they were doing a Kathy Bates comedy about this business and that alone made me interested. Then I watched the trailer and realized what kind of show it was and now I'm out. It didn't look good to me at all.

Lemme try some of that Stranger Dank

Yes, but you need to upgrade to the plan that allows multiple strains.

 

[Lulubop]

Good packaging imo.

[HylianTom]

I hope that Moon 13 is a sign about how well Netflix regards MST3k. Been waiting for renewal news for a while now..

 

[jstripes]

They're trying to outdo Adult Swim now.

I liked it. However, it has a laugh track AND it was cocreated by Chuck Lorre of Two & a Half Men and Big Bang Theory, so a lot of you hipsters will find it unbearable.

 

[off duty ninja]

I've seen stranger things. This is pretty awesome!

 

[JeTmAn81]

That new Chuck Lorre show is hot garbage as expected

 

[t hicks]

lmao. I have nothing against laugh track shows, as I have watched many in my life, and I even enjoyed a bunch of the early seasons of Two & a Half Man, but BBT and most of the things he made on the 2010's didnt resonate with me at all

 

[Empty]

the marketing creative who came up with this is definitely one of the top 100 most irritating people on the planet

 

[andymcc]

They missed out on calling the Bojack one just bojack. Could've packaged it like the drug 😂

 

[Spiritwalker]

Netflix making marijuana? I did not see this coming.

 

[Stranger Things]

thats pretty awesome

i think its cool how pro-cannabis netflix is, and how well they know their stoner audience LOL

 

[Messofanego]

What marijuana strand makes you super paranoid?

 

[Ragnarsson]

Redefining Netflix and chill...

 

[Foxy the Fox]

What marijuana strand makes you super paranoid?

Just a little joke. Sometimes the venom directed towards these types of shows is way over the top.

 

[Complex Shadow]

I feel like not calling one "bojack" is a missed opportunity.

 

[DizzyCaffeine]

Edit: nvm

 

[Extollere]

That's awesome... but seriously, how could they do this and not include a Stranger Things strain?? Is it because they don't want marijuana being associated with a show featuring children?

 

[Hoo-doo]

I dig it.

 

[sc0la]

No "Stranga Tings"?

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

They missed out on calling the Bojack one just bojack. Could've packaged it like the drug ��

That's too much, man.

 

[Jarmel]

I want Banana Stand Kush.

For the love of god, never change your avatar. I'll never tire of quoting it.

Every Banana Stand Kush should come with a copy of this:

Joel has been heavily implying we'll be getting another season.

 

[runningjoke]

Gimme a hit of The Expanse

 

[Stinkles]

There's money in the Banana Stand.

I assume I'm the eighth person to say this.

 

[Bronx-Man]

Wouldn't the Bojack strain just make you depressed and think about all the bad decisions in your life for hours

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

Stay the fuck away from that black mirror pack.
