Everyone knows Seth Rogen is a huge cannabis advocate, and it's seeped into his writing more than a few times. After getting his start on "Freaks and Geeks" in 1999, acting alongside James Franco, Busy Philipps, and Jason Segel, he broke into writing for television. Rogen worked on "Undeclared" and "Da Ali G Show" between 2001 and 2004, and after a few years, his and Evan Goldberg's script for "Superbad" was finally picked up.

"Pineapple Express" was the next installment of the Rogen, Goldberg, and Judd Apatow writing team, which obviously leaned further into the stoner humor and further established Rogen as a marijuana connoisseur. Many more stories developed from the "Knocked Up" actor, including "This Is the End," "The Interview," and "Sausage Party." While many either love or hate his films, comedic stylings, and iconic laugh, "Superbad" is still frequently ranked as Rogen's best work.

Even Rogen agrees, as he told People in 2023, "No one's made a good high school movie since ['Superbad']." To not come across as completely arrogant, he spoke again with People not long after to clarify what he meant. "That was a joke. There's a lot [of good high school movies]. I've personally made a few," he quipped. Having been involved with "Blockers" and the "21 Jump Street" reboot, Rogen absolutely knows what he's talking about and will continue to use his stoner humor to make legendary comedies.
