High Maintenance - Season 1 (2016)
- The comedy series revolves around a group of comedic positions where the man who makes a strange rendition follows a muscular client and his more moderate mother. Esha, a young girl who lives with her aunt and uncle in Brooklyn, is struggling to be a 'regular university student' despite the strict religious values of her family. Guy delivers to Leo and Gigi, a seemingly widowed couple, holding a warm reunion for Leo's birthday, an event marked by accusations, counter-accusations and disturbing revelation.

Less concerned with being funny than with being real, which makes it often funny, it uses the clientele of a New York pot dealer (Ben Sinclair as "The Guy," as in "my weed guy") to tell a variety of freestanding short stories.

The resulting work will take you on a meditative journey through the silly and the poignant, the touching and the surreal, one that ultimately leaves you feeling uplifted-if not exactly high.

High Maintenance is about a weed-delivery guy, but it's really about so much more than a weed-delivery guy. It's about how we interact with each other and how we live our lives.

When something small and beautiful makes the leap to a bigger platform, anxiety is a natural response. But fans of High Maintenance need not worry.

High Maintenance is as much about drugs as Friends is about Central Perk's damn fine Macchiato. It is a dreamy, surreal, intimate - and yes - trippy peek into lives overwhelmed by urban loneliness.

High Maintenance exceeds expectations, not only delivering the same loose energy of the earlier seasons, but deepening the DNA of the show with the complicated tools at its disposal.

High Maintenance is still best approached - and savored - as a series of moments. The actors, each one of them excellent and each bringing their game, capture private lives in those moments.

High Maintenance pulls audiences in by depicting the grinding routine of life, then delighting in the little moments that can still surprise. It's a comedy of human interaction, with a slightly voyeuristic thrill.
