Jimmy Kimmel is launching a series about a cannabis shop for Hulu

It has been reported that Hulu has ordered a six-episode documentary series called "High Hopes" with Jimmy Kimmel as executive producer.

Here's What We Know

"workplace reality series following Belarus-born brothers Slava and Mishka and their stoned crew through the trials and tribulations of taking their cannabis business to new heights. As one of the oldest cannabis dispensaries in Hollywood, MMD attracts a wild mix of weed-loving customers and is a home away from home for their OG employees who work hard and smoke harder! This season builds to their biggest day of the year — 4.20 — as the gang attempts to expand nationwide and release their own top-shelf cannabis brand. Will they find what they’re looking for or will their hopes go up in smoke?".

The idea for the "High Hopes" series came after California became the first state to allow the medical use of marijuana. Many other US states have also legalised both medical and recreational use of marijuana, while only four - Idaho, Wyoming, Kansas and South Carolina - still consider such use illegal.

When We Can Expect It

The series, very symbolically, will air on 20 April on Hulu, and sources say it will be rated as a TV-MA for adult audiences.

Kimmel, or rather his company Kimmelot, is producing "High Hopes" with ITV America.
