Gower thinks he did a wonderful job.
"My goal was to lift the standard of debate in New Zealand, and I know I've done that.
"Twenty years working as a journalist in this country, out there to inform Kiwis, and to do it on this scale with an issue like this and featuring the people that we showed, it's a dream come true for me."
Gower hoped to make more documentaries, together with his friend Justin Hawkes, who was was the creative force behind On Weed.
"The audience is there," he said.

Will the same compassion be applied to the assessment processes, which for some take a very narrow view of eligibility?
The announcement said that NASC assessment processes will continue unchanged – more of the same nitpicking and rationing. I hope someone is monitoring how many people get the full 40 hour maximum.
The prospect of improvement as part of wider changes to support services is being dangled, but how many years away is that?
