Close Enough

Each Strain Delivers Effects Inspired By Four Main Characters Josh, Emily, Alex And Bridgette

Edibles Will Be Available in Select California Dispensaries And For Delivery Via Eaze Throughout the Month Of July (while supplies last)

LOS ANGELES, CA, June 29, 2020 -- In celebration of the new HBO Max Original Series CLOSE ENOUGH premiering July 9th, HBO Max is partnering with Sunderstorm’s Kanha Cannabis Infused Gummies and online cannabis marketplace Eaze to launch a collection of character-inspired CLOSE ENOUGH edibles.

From JG Quintel, creator of the Emmy® Award-winning “Regular Show,” comes CLOSE ENOUGH, a surreal animated comedy about a married couple, their five-year-old daughter, and their two divorced best friends/roommates all living together on the east side of Los Angeles. They’re navigating that transitional time in your 30s when life is about growing up, but not growing old. It’s about juggling work, kids, and pursuing your dreams, while avoiding time-traveling snails, stripper clowns, and murderous mannequins. Their life may not be ideal but for now, it's close enough.

The dedicated production staff at the California-based edible brand Kanha expertly formulated the CLOSE ENOUGH collection inspired by each of the adult characters in the series. Whether you want to relax like Josh, get things done like Emily, get lost in thought like Alex or be a social butterfly like Bridgette, HBO Max and Kanha have you covered. Pop one of the delicious edibles and settle in to binge the highly anticipated new series.

“It has been so thrilling for my team and I to create a campaign that feels so authentic to CLOSE ENOUGH,” said Peter Sherman, SVP of Program Marketing at HBO Max. “When crafting any campaign, our aim is always to create an experience for the audience that feels genuine and exciting, and this partnership with Kanha hits the nail on the head. We’re so excited about this one and we can’t wait to see how fans react.”

"Kanha's partnership with HBO Max is an exciting opportunity to showcase our delicious, award-winning gummies to a brand new audience," says Cameron Clarke, CEO of Sunderstorm the parent company of Kanha. "We can't think of a more playful, fun collaboration to announce to our fiercely loyal fans. We're thrilled to partner with one of entertainment's biggest media giants to help bring the adult characters in their new show to life through our gummy flavors and profiles."

“HBO Max’s partnership with Eaze is so exciting and it’s a great way to connect with audiences. Eaze is all about high product standards and the best value for customers, and we’re pleased to align with one of the biggest and most respected names in entertainment,” said Eaze CEO Ro Choy.

Starting today and through the end of July, while supplies last, CLOSE ENOUGH Cannabis-Infused Gummies are available at over 20 select, licensed retailers in California. They will also be available for purchase and delivery via Eaze in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and San Diego throughout the month of July, while supplies last.

CLOSE ENOUGH gummies are of the highest quality, with all natural ingredients, flavor and coloring. Kanha holds the title of “Number One Cannabis Gummy in California” by volume according to BDSA for two months in a row from March to April 2020 and first place for “Most Accurately Formulated Edible” at the 2019 CSA Awards.

Josh

JOSH

Cool dad, husband, and future world-famous video-game designer, Josh likes to chill with his Indica Strawberry Gummies.

EMILY

Emily is logical, organized, a planner — everything her husband Josh is not. She’s a loving mother and a strong working woman who tries to have it all. Busy mom Emily gets it done with her Sativa Pineapple Gummies.

alex

ALEX

Alex is Josh’s neurotic best friend from high school. He lives in the walk-in closet of the apartment he shares with Josh, Emily, Candice, and Bridgette (his ex-wife, but it’s not a big deal). When Alex wants to get lost in thought, he stays cool and carries on with his Hybrid Watermelon Gummies.

BRIDGETTE

Bridgette is a glamorous social media influencer — at least in her mind. “Working” is more of a hobby she squeezes in between partying. Bridgette stays on top of partying and her social game with her 1:1 Pink Lemonade Gummies.
