Nothing built-in -- but you can fake it::
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
t = np.arange(0.0, 2.0, 0.01)
s = np.sin(2*np.pi*t)
fig =

Along similar lines, has anyone figured out a way to have a drop shadow
effect for text on a plot?

So there is no way to say plot a line. Grab that image. Apply a standard
SVG filter (like Gaussian). And overlay the blur? I do not know the PIL
well enough to know if this is feasible.
You can do this using an

behind darker text, so that the text can stand out reasonably clearly against
most colored backgrounds.
OK. I can imagine
