Rotten Tomatoes
Rotten Tomatoes is an American review-aggregation website for film and television. The company was launched in August 1998 by three undergraduate students at the University of California, Berkeley: Senh Duong, Patrick Y. Lee, and Stephen Wang.

Since January 2010, Rotten Tomatoes has been owned by Flixster, which was in turn acquired by Warner Bros in 2011. In February 2016, Rotten Tomatoes and its parent site Flixster were sold to Comcast's Fandango. Warner Bros. retained a minority stake in the merged entities, including Fandango.

''That '80s Show'' is an American television sitcom set in 1984 that aired from January to May 2002 on Fox.

The characters and storylines from the two shows never crossed paths. It was a separate decade-based show created as a result of ''That '70s Show''s popularity at the time. The show was cancelled after 13 episodes. Development ''Freaks and Geeks'', a show that aired on NBC during the 1999–2000 television season, was called ''That '80s Show'' by fans and critics for its similarities to ''That '70s Show''.

Cannabis
''Cannabis'' () is a genus of flowering plants in the family Cannabaceae. The number of species within the genus is disputed.

The genus is widely accepted as being indigenous to and originating from Asia. The plant is also known as hemp, although this term is often used to refer only to varieties of ''Cannabis'' cultivated for non-drug use. Cannabis has long been used for hemp fibre, hemp seeds and their oils, hemp leaves for use as vegetables and as juice, medicinal purposes, and as a recreational drug.
