With Weeds and Breaking Bad currently off the air, what's a stoner to watch on the Doob Tube?
Plenty - starting with HBO's new pot-friendly show Bored to Death starring Jason Schwartzman stars as writer/wannabee detective Jonathan, whose editor George (Ted Danson) keeps hitting him up for weed. This may be the first TV show ever in which the characters get high using a cigarette-style one-hitter and a vaporizer. Zach Galifianakis has a supporting role as Jonathan's wacky friend, Ray. Sun., 9:30 pm EST
Also on HBO, Curb Your Enthusiasm returned for its seventh season. The big hype has been the Seinfeld reunion, which concludes on Sunday. Sun., 9 pm EST
Real Time with Bill Maher keeps chugging along on HBO as well. Top CelebStoner Bill Maher consistently scores political points while keeping the marijuana issue front and center. Fri., 11 pm EST
Season 6 of HBO's Entourage was mostly about Eric's (Kevin Connolly) relationship problems. Not very exciting. At least Turtle (Jerry Ferrarra) still wakes and bakes.
Showtime's Californication is back for Season 3. Drug-taking playboy Hank (David Duchovny) takes a teaching job as he plays single dad with Becca (Madeleine Martin) while his ex, Karen (Natasha McElhone), works in New York. Sun., 10 pm EST
Non-premium cable offers up Sons of Anarchy - FX's homage to the biker-gang movies of the '60s. Now in Season 2, Jax (Charlie Hunnam) and Clay (Ron Pearlman) battle for control of the club, which is being terrorized by white supremecists led by A.J. (Henry Rollins). Katey Sagal (Gemma), Clay's "old lady," smokes a joints and several of the guys trip on mushrooms. Tues., 10 pm EST
AMC's Emmy-wiining drama Mad Men took a stony turn in Season 3 when the "creatives" had a toking session, with Peggy (Elisabeth Moss) declaring: "I'm Peggy Olson and I want to smoke some marijuana!" Nuff said. Sun., 10 pm EST
Top CelebStoner Amy Poehler stars as the kooky administrator Leslie Knope on Parks and Recreation - watch the stony "Stakeout" episode. After years on Saturday Night Live doing "Weekend Update" pot jokes, we'll follow Amy anywhere. Thurs., 8:30 pm EST
Our guilty pleasure is Gossip Girl on The CW. In Season 3, the main characters - Serena (Blake Lively), Blair (Leighton Meester) and Dan (Penn Badgley) - go to college. Look for Chuck (Ed Westwick) and Nate (Chase Crawford) to occasionally spark up a joint. Mon., 8 pm EST
