MTV's Female-Led Stoner Comedy Pretty Stoned Sets Premiere (Photos)
MTV is kicking off the 4/20 festivities a little early this year, debuting its latest original movie Pretty Stoned on Wednesday, April 19 (8/7c), TVLine has learned exclusively.
The Atlanta-set comedy “follows two dueling co-workers: one a total stoner with no commitment to her job and the other a type-A high-achiever focused on her career,” per the movie’s official logline. “The two women must join forces when they find themselves sky-high in a boatload of trouble after one of them disposes of $20,000 worth of pot from a drug queenpin and her henchwomen.”
