Budding Prospects
Based on the 1984 T.C. Boyle novel of the same name, Budding Prospects details the misadventures of a group of friends who leave San Francisco in 1983 and plan to get rich by illegally growing marijuana at a “summer camp.” Marijuana is a polarizing topic and for that reason, I expect this show to receive some undeserved fan votes. Budding Prospects is a pot comedy, and for those that are into that kind of thing it might be enjoyable. I am not, to say the least, so for me the show was a complete dud. The acting was unimpressive and the shaky camera job really bothered me. Aside from the aesthetic issues, it seems like it could potentially be a pretty good plot. I wish it would’ve veered away from being too much of a stoner comedy, and gone more in-depth in the story aspect. I feel like the plot would be more well-suited if the show was a drama, rather than a comedy. I didn’t like it at all, but given time, it seems like Budding Prospects may be able to get better (but I doubt it). Everyone involved seems too dim-witted to notice its shortcomings. This show was awful.
