The show's kinda funny. And what to make of Jim is completely a crap shoot. For one, he's an idiot
yet...not unredeemable, somehow...maybe. But then he destroys Jack's entire crop. Jack wouldn't talk to him.
Then he gets Akroyd to partner up with him. He goes to Colombia to find thee varieties...which i've tried to find
online. They are called: santa marta gold, mango bj (?), and punto rojos. They do all kinda stuff in Col. finally getting
the seeds of each, pocketing them, and (spoiler alert--i don't believe in spoilers mostly) promptly losing them all.

Then there's other TV shows about cannabis that i've enjoyed

Here's a few links if anybody's interested:

Then there's VICE’s Bong Appétit, which challenged notable chefs to cater themed, cannabis-infused
dinner parties, ran for three seasons beginning in 2016 (and is now available to stream on Hulu). It's
not running anymore.

I've watched Weediquette, a documentary series.

Umm, there are other shows i've viewed, none of which i recollect right now. And the web says there are new ones out,
which are streamed, so I don't get them.

With RIU, who needs 'em anyhow. Altho, those Colombian strains Belushi went after are certainly intriguing.

Nobody likes belushi, i guess. What is it, that he's doing a 'mersh grow, or what?
It's not that I like him, he's kind of an idiot, dunno if that's a role or what. Never
did care much for his movies. Anyhow, he's got season 3 of Growing Belushi which,
including meeting with the President of Albania, and Mohawk tribe members, looks interesting:

Mans probaby got crippy biche, punta crappy and crippy marta crap. Its not so easy to find those strains pure no more. Oh no he even lost those, what a dork. They call colombian gold, mango biche, and limon virdei all to one plant-strain now in some places in colombia now. Belushi has quite a farm tho.

I watched one of the first ones when they were in Columbia. They were buying seeds that looked nothing like weed seeds. After that I was done with the show.

It's a reality show nothing more. I saw a few snippets/pictures and the grow looked like crap. Just a guy with money growing weed that doesn't need to make money doing it. He's been in the paper numerous time as they portray him as some cannabis guru or something. The shows a joke. Apparently they did an episode with that other hack Guy Fieri from the Food Channel. It's in the same category as those fake house flipping shows and Housewives of Atlanta. Just garbage television. You couldn't pay me to watch it.

I can relate with Guy though, he's amping up business for places that deserve it. I like food also...lol.

I can't stand the guy anymore. He had a halfway decent show when he first started out on the Food Network back when it was about food and not reality shows. That channel has gone the way of MTV.

He's been in Portland numerous times. He's never done much for the businesses. Maybe some people watched the show and their business goes up 20% for a week. I just don't care for his act, it's just so fake, old, and boring. If I was trying to eat at a restaurant and he came up to my table bothering me I'd tell him to go away.

I did like watching him get his ass beat by his hairdresser though. :mrgreen:
