Did anyone mention:
Six Feet Under-Season 1, Episode 1 ~ Daughter smokes methamphetamine for the first time with her boyfriend and immediately after feeling the first effects of the drug, she receives a phone call on her cell phone telling her that her father has been fatally killed in a car crash. An absolutely terrible way to experience anything like that for the first time.
And there are many more references than just this. In one episode, Ruth (the mother) takes some aspirin while camping, which she doesn't know is really E. She has a wonderful time running her hands over tree bark and has hallucinations. One fo the better episodes of the series.
Various characters smoke weed in many many episodes.
Ruth's sister takes mushrooms and later in the series develops a Vicodin addiction.
Ruth's son David, who is gay, does poppers in one episode, takes E and goes to a club in another, and in still another is kidnapped and forced to inject something (PCP?) I can't remember.
Ruth's son Claire had a boyfriend named Gabe who has a drug overdose.
I am sure there are more, but that's just off the top of my head.
*EDIT**from wiki:
Ketamine is featured in the episode 44 of the HBO tv-series Six Feet Under, where Russell, Claire's friend, reports his experiences after a lengthy trip.
In the seventh episode of the first season of the American television series The Dead Zone, titled "Enemy Mind", the lead character, psychic Johnny Smith, accidentally inhales Ketamine in aerosol state, and the drug wreaks havoc with his "dead zone", the primary brain center for his psychic visions.
In the last episode of the second season of the American television series House, titled "No Reason", the lead character, Dr. Gregory House, is administered Ketamine to try to relieve the terrible leg pain he has been suffering throughout the course of the series. At the beginning of the third season, it seems that the Ketamine treatment has worked, though by the end of the second episode his pain has returned and he has started using a walking cane and Vicodin again.
In the sixth episode of the second season of I'm Alan Partridge, entitled "Alan Wide Shut", Alan Partridge attends a radio interview on a program called Prayer Wave to promote his autobiography and has a surreal, barbed conversation with a woman called Kate Fitzgerald who is also promoting her autobiography. They discuss her ketamine use and move on to talk about Alan's addiction to chocolate, specifically Toblerone.
In the South Park episode Stupid Spoiled Whore Video Playset (referring to Paris Hilton), the girls say they are going to a party to do ketamine and then make fun of Wendy for knowing what ketamine is, saying they have no idea but are going to do it anyway. It is also referred to in the episode You Got Fucked in the Ass where Stan and Chef go to recruit a duck in their dance team. The owner plays two songs for the duck to dance to which contains the line "You do a line and I'll do a line honey" followed by "You snort K and I'll snort K honey".
