There is a new television show that airs in L.A. on KJLA that potentially has 5 million viewers--and they are apparently “hungry for more,” according to the show’s producer, Brad Lane. Why is this? It is a show that focuses exclusively on one topic: [weed](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gift-of-weed).

It seems many people are a fan of a little Mary Jane, judging by [Cannabis Planet](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/im-high-right-now-campaign)’s viewership. Accordingly, Lane is pushing to have his show airing in all states that allow [medicinal marijuana](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rare-breeds). Stations may have cold feet about this controversial channel, but it seems to be growing rapidly in popularity.
