High Maintenance is an American anthology comedy-drama television and web series created by ex-husband and wife team Ben Sinclair and Katja Blichfeld.[1][2][3] The show follows The Guy, a cannabis courier (played by Sinclair), as he delivers his product to clients in the New York City borough of Brooklyn.[4] Each episode focuses on different characters as their lives intersect with The Guy.[5] The full series consists of six web series followed by four television seasons, released from November 2012 to April 2020.
High Maintenance originally premiered as a web series on Vimeo on November 11, 2012, and began airing as a television series on HBO on September 16, 2016. The show's second HBO season premiered on January 19, 2018, and its third on January 20, 2019. HBO renewed the series for a fourth season, which premiered on February 7, 2020.[6][7] On January 14, 2021, it was confirmed that the series would not return for a fifth season.[8]
High Maintenance has received critical acclaim for its portrayals of boredom, loneliness, and the human condition.[9] First season episodes "Meth(od)" and "Grandpa" both placed on numerous year-end lists in 2016,[10][11] while second season episode "Globo" was ranked as one of the best episodes of 2018 by sources such as Time and Variety.[12][13]
