‘High Maintenance’ Renewed by HBO for Season Two

HBO has greenlit pot-themed comedy “High Maintenance” for a second season. Launched on HBO on Sept. 16, and originally introduced as a web series, “High Maintenance” from Ben Sinclair and Katja Blichfeld features a nameless marijuana deliveryman called The Guy (played by Sinclair) as he delivers his product to clients in New York City. Each episode focuses on a new set of characters as they all procure their cannabis from Sinclair’s character.

“The response to the new episodes exceeded all of our expectations,” said Casey Bloys, head of HBO programming. “Ben and Katja are brilliant, unconventional storytellers and we’re excited to see what they dream up for us in our second season.”

There is no word how many episodes have been ordered for season two. The first season consists of six.
