Writing and executive produced by Lorre and Javerbaum, Disjointed, which has 20-episode straight-to-series order, stars Bates as Ruth, a lifelong advocate for legalization who’s finally living her dream as the owner of an L.A.-area cannabis dispensary. Joining her are three budtenders, her twenty-something son and a deeply troubled security guard. All of them are more or less constantly high.
Baldwin plays Pete, a budtender at Ruth’s dispensary whose passion is growing and developing pot strains. He admires Ruth and looks to her for inspiration.
