Building on its library of 4/20 movies, MTV today announced the premiere of Pretty Stoned, an all-new original stoner comedy with a female-led cast, set to air on Wednesday, April 19 @ 8PM ET/PT.
Set in Atlanta, the comedy follows two dueling co-workers: one a total stoner with no commitment to her job and the other a type-A high-achiever focused on her career. The two women must join forces when they find themselves sky-high in a boatload of trouble after one of them disposes of $20,000 worth of pot from a drug Queen Pin and her henchwomen.

Pretty Vee will play Stella, a proud stoner who finds herself sky-high in a boatload of trouble during her favorite day of the year, 4/20.
