DESCRIPTION:
(from truTV's press release, October 2014) truTV has ordered a pilot for Medicine Man (working title) from Flame Ventures and Wilshire Studios. The project will center on the family dynasty behind the Medicine Man Marijuana Dispensary in Colorado. Tony Krantz (24, Felicity) is set to serve as executive producer on the pilot, with Wilshire Studios producing and Flame Ventures' Drew Comins as co-executive producer. On the outskirts of Denver in a nondescript industrial park is Medicine Man, a seemingly ordinary family business that just happens to be one of the leaders in the state's gigantic new legal marijuana industry. No one really knows much about this marijuana dispensary and manufacturing plant... until now. Medicine Man will focus on the Williams family dynasty and its unusual brand of business savvy, demonstrating that the people at the center of the legal marijuana industry are a far cry from the stoner stereotypes. Medicine Man has a 40,000-square-foot industrial cultivation facility used for growing their award-winning product, employs 75 people across its various divisions, and is in construction on its first satellite outpost in nearby Aurora, Colo.
