stoner reviews -disjointed
I've watched two seasons of this In two days so you know it's good.
it's really funny and it makes you want to get the fuck high.
this is something you have to watch stoned. it does not have the same effect if watched sober; sometimes there are some awesome trippy scenes that can only be fully enjoyed if high (I'm gonna leave the link to my favourite here <-- this was a spiritual experience, please watch it)
trust me, watch disjointed and watch it stoned; it's an experience.
also, it's fucking hilarious

SUPER SIMPLE LOVE STORY (rejected as series; fka The Us Project)
A story told through interviews and vignettes spanning 10 years, about how an unlikely couple becomes an unlikely family.
Cast (thus far)
Elizabeth Alderfer (Disjointed) as Morgan, a self-described “bailer” who has drifted from job to job. Now in her 30s, she is experiencing alarm bells about getting serious about life. She’s concerned that her current job at a “click-hungry” website is making the world worse, and that her jiujitsu-crazed boyfriend may not be the one. Then she meets Kevin, and the next decade of her life is transformed. (Mar 18)
David Walton (9JKL) as Kevin, a recently divorced father of two teenage girls. Normally secure and loyal, Kevin is still heartsick over his ex – though he won’t admit it – and has been adrift since the split. Then he meets Morgan, and their tangled romantic relationship begins. (Mar 18)
Parker Young (Imposters) as Jared, Morgan’s live-in boyfriend. A new jiu jitsu fanatic, Jared practices constantly in order to excel at his first amateur tournament that’s quickly approaching and which he has no chance of winning. He lives on a diet of corn fungus smoothies and occasionally wears a strange “elevation mask” to increase lung capacity and oxygen efficiency — but it also makes him look like Bane. Although he has sweet qualities, Jared appears to be unaware that his eccentric enthusiasms are driving Morgan away from him. (Feb 27)
Vanessa Marano (Switched at Birth) as Nell, the older daughter of Kevin and Holly. Nell is a teenager and the leader of the two daughters. (Mar 7)
Laura Marano (Austin & Ally) as Jen, Kevin and Holly’s younger daughter who idolizes her sister Nell so much that she pretends they’re twins. (Mar 7)
Ronny Chieng (International Student) as Harris, Kevin’s friend and former college roommate, an atheist without a filter who “loves to debate” and mostly ruins every social interaction by getting in his own way — and everybody else’s. (Mar 28)
Susan Wokoma (Crazyhead) as Abby. While friend and co-worker Morgan agonizes over job and relationship fulfillment, Abby is happy to hate her job as long as the check clears — and hit on cute Rabbi Sarah without hesitation. (Mar 28)

Gotta appreciate that Lizzie Dugan's hair in United States of Al is pretty much bisexual and you can't convince me otherwise
