Stoned Streaming That Serves

After that first pull on a blunt or vape, or after you’ve consumed an edible and had a few shrooms—with the stem, always with the stems—the time has come for a binge-worthy television show, perhaps a movie that can take the high to the next level. Before the list reveal, grab yourself some snacks (rule of thumb: Always contrast the munchies to maximize food craving satisfaction). Below is a compiled list of must-watch TV shows and movies while stoned.
Movies:
Alice in Wonderland (2010): Directed by the marvelous Tim Burton, what’s not love? Seriously. The imagery alone will have your imagination running wild. Now, off with their heads.
Avatar (2009): Avatar offers an all-star cast, direction by James Cameron, and has the full entertainment package: a decent storyline, great character development, love, and enough drama that keeps your interest while high. Not to mention the graphics and emotional depth will surely keep you satisfied and engaged.
Interstellar (2014): To the moon and back again, this is an incredible movie that is simply otherworldly, literally. The ethereal soundtrack and cinematography aid for a good shroom and edible trip. I highly recommend a hybrid THC product for this movie.
I Am Jonas (2018): If you’re feeling a bit sentimental, I Am Jonas is a great LGBTQ film that depicts young Jonas (9 years old) exploring his sexuality with boys from his school. The storyline progresses into Jonas (his 30-year-old self), and the younger Jonas and older Jonas collide. Take some indica, and get into your feels.
Moonlight (2016): An epic, LGBTQ, POC movie that anyone can enjoy, Moonlight is complex and visceral. It tells a story of how characters of color navigate ethnic expectations and grapple with the realities of identifying within the LGBTQ community. Watch it just because you’re high and want to become engulfed in good culture.
Ride or Die (2021): This film features a highly dramatic storyline that is relatively relatable for most viewers. The story is about a woman in an abusive relationship with her husband, and her friend helps her leave. The friend also helps her come out with a special secret. Sativa flower all the way with this movie.
TV Shows:
Schitt’s Creek: This is great for a comedic relief, offering up the story of dysfunctional family relationships and romantic relationships, and a lot of dry humor. Perfect to watch with indica, especially after a long day when you need a giggle and gag.
RuPaul’s Drag Race: Comedy, lighthearted competition, and creativity. From bitchy queens to runway to the famed “lip sync for your life” to the mechanics of the production and performance—Just pass the blunt and gawk at their gowns.
Pose: Pay homage to the girls and our ballroom mothers who stood before us. This show is a perfect way to indulge in a chocolate edible, if applicable. Also, this sentimental and emotionally captivating storyline pairs well with a hybrid flower that will help you take a stroll down memory lane.
Cartoons: Just for laughs.
Q-Force: This Netflix comedy is an action-packed animated show featuring steamy (animated) nudity and lightheartedness. Q-Force takes place in West Hollywood, and the LGBTQ characters are spies.
Love + Death + Robots: Welcome to the dark, twisted, animated fantasy with a splash of suspense and drama thrown into the mix. This show is great if you’re looking to change up the monotonous TV routine and try something fun and entertaining. It’s also great on a hybrid flower paired with shrooms.
