Blue Mountain State

I came across this show when I was flipping through the channels just this past Tuesday. I was on the floor laughing my butt off before it was halfway through. Afterwards I watched the rest on the spike TV homepage and just couldn't stop laughing. This show is awesome and I love the acting by the main guys. I used to watch Darin Brooks on Days of Our Lives and just thought he was amazing and with this show he has taken it to a whole new level. I also remember Sam Jones from Smallville and think he is just so talented. I forgot the other players name but he is too funny. So glad it was renewed for another season. Now instead of wondering what to do with my Tuesday nights I will definitely tune in to this show. It has by far become one of my favorite comedy's to date.

The deeds and misdeeds of the Blue Mountain State college football team. Between numerous parties and general mayhem they manage to play some football, and play it well. Lead by coach Marty Daniels and captain Thad Castle they're a formidable team. Joining this team is second string quarterback Alex Moran and team mascot Sammy Cacciatore.

I initially wasn't that impressed with this series. The humour was quite juvenile and low-brow though there was a great momentum to proceedings that made the vibe quite fun.

Luckily I stuck with the series as things improved. The humour was often still quite juvenile but it also got more intelligent with some clever plots, scenes and one-liners.

The characters also become more engaging and fully formed. Alex Moran is the central character and is solidly played by Darin Brooks. However, the pick of the characters is Thad Castle, played by now-action-star Alan Richson with a great self-deprecating, jock-satirising humour. On the negative side I found Sammy Cacciatore (played by Chris Romano, co-creator of the show) largely irritating.

On the whole it's funny and good fun.

9/10

A series about a football team with loads of sex and drugs.. So, college. This is a great series for what it is, but not much more. It has a lot of good jokes and a lot of good characters. The 'bully' and captain of the team is hilariously insane, and the story is compelling to any teenager. If you've come for intelligent television, you're looking the wrong way, because this is pretty dumb television, but I enjoy watching it.

Watch it if you like movies like "American Pie", "Dude, where's my car?" and similar teenage movies.

Also, am I the only one who thinks the main character is sort of like a younger Johnny Depp?

This show is the epitome of a college party show. From Thad to Alex Morgan to Coach Marty Daniels the characters alone make this show incredible. I feel like this show is one of those that they had no idea what a masterpiece they were creating.

Slap stick simple comedy that brings about all the joys of college. Its really a shame this show got canceled while "reality" TV continues. Probably one of the best sport shows ever for comedy. The supporting characters changed a lot, but that was great because it provided a dynamic environment for the comedy. Guest stars were great, seeing Chad Ochocinco and the Captains ceremony made me laugh out loud. I do wish they had a few more actual football scenes, but maybe the actors weren't athletic enough. The show probably lack in the female audience as it was very much geared towards guys with all the themes, but a great guy show it was. All in all though a great show.
