Chuck Lorre, prolific comedy producer best known for “The Big Bang Theory,” “Two and a Half Men,” “Mike and Molly” and “Mom,” is prepping a Colorado-set pop comedy, The Hollywood Reporter posted today.
Co-written by Lorre and David Javerbaum (“The Daily Show”) the spec script for the as yet untitled half-hour is set at a legal marijuana dispensary in Colorado, THR reported.
The ensemble revolves around a group of potheads.
“Pot comedies have been in high demand across broadcast, cable, premium and streaming outlets,” the magazine noted.
Amazon recently tapped Margaret Cho to star in pot comedy ; HBO picked up six episodes of the popular web series and NBC is teaming with Adam and Naomi Scott to develop set in Denver.
