What genre hasn’t Netflix swallowed in its quest to control all streaming media? It seems the answer is none, as Netflix recently announced they are dipping their toes in the stoner comedy variety with Disjointed starring Kathy Bates.
The show was co-created by Two and Half Men producer Chuck Lorre and former head writer of The Daily Show David Javerbaum.
Here is the official summary from Netflix:
Disjointed is a workplace comedy starring Kathy Bates as a lifelong advocate for legalization who’s finally living her dream as the owner of an L.A.–area cannabis dispensary. Joining her are three budtenders, her twenty-something son and a deeply troubled security guard. All of them are more or less constantly high.

Deadline described the show back in January of last year as “the most anticipated comedy spec script this winter,” so expectations are reasonably high regarding the Bates vehicle. The 20-episode season won’t be available until August 25, but you could see we have our eyes on this one.
