Bored to Death is a stoner-noir comedy that follows the life of struggling writer and occasional pot smoking nice guy, Jonathon Ames (Jason Schwartzman). Dumped by his girlfriend for enjoying a smoke and constant wine drinking, Ames soon finds himself joining a website as an unlicensed private detective.
Calls and clients follow, but there is always a good amount of marijuana to pass around with the cast also including Zach Galifianakis as Ray (love struck comic artist donating sperm to a lesbian couple) and Ted Danson as George (Ames' boss and womanising, weed loving editor of a New York magazine).
Stoners and easy goers will immediately relate to these characters and most will smile at pop culture references of both the high and low life in New York. Take a look at the trailer below (or click here for better quality):
The first two series have already had their run, but you can look out for Bored to Death on either Sky Atlantic or - more conveniently - the internet. HBO has also announced that the series will return for a third season some time this year.
So spark up and enjoy. Peace out.
