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.

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?

When BMS was originally on air, I was only about 12-13 years old so it was just a little out of my age range. However now, all these years later, I decided to binge it because I never watched the full series through and because it came up in a conversation with some coworkers. Also, I just recently graduated from college so I always enjoy the overtop portrayals of American college life in TV and movies.

As I come close to the end of the third season, I can't help but be amazed at the masterpiece of comedy this series is. It's able to strike the perfect balance of crude and absurd humor with brilliant plots every episode. Typically, shows that feature this kind of crude humor, especially in portrayals of American college life, push far past the point of comfort where the dirty humor shoots past "American Pie"-ess levels of raunchiness and you just start to feel physically gross watching it.

Not BMS. Don't get me wrong, it has plenty of absurd comedy around sex, drugs, and other faucets of the party side of college. But where it excels is in its ability to have creative and outrageous plot lines that keep you engaged while making your laugh. The characters are goofy but likable (maybe not Thad) and the whole casts itself works perfectly together. It's over the top without plummeting off the edge.

Now fair warning: for people who didn't grow up or go to college in the era it was made, the comedy is a reflection of those times, meaning by today's standards it would mostly likely appear utterly gross and offensive. In short, I really don't think there's anyway this show could ever be released today. We can talk all we want about cancel culture, which I'm not a big fan of, but I'm not going to lie either: this show over-sexualizes and objectives women, features an intense display of what would be called toxic masculinity, and includes insults that certainly would be frowned upon by todays standards.

But I think the key here is this: nuance. As i said, the comedy is a reflection of when it was made. We can't judge it by todays standards. It is completely ok to genuinely enjoy the show while at the same time realizing that what they may be doing and saying is wrong and that we have grown and matured as a culture and society. Some people might not agree with this, but so be it. We can pick apart the show all we want about where it's offensive, politically incorrect, etc etc. But at the end of the day, it is possible to do this in the back of our minds WHILE having a good laugh and just enjoying the show for what it is: absurd and brilliant.

So kick back, crack a beer, light up a you-know-what, and have a good laugh at all the shenanigans of Thad, Alex, Sammy, and the rest of BMS.

I did not expect much from this show at all. Some friends were watching it and I just caught a few minutes. One night I got bored and noticed that it was available on Netflix. I was hooked from the first five minutes, and I finished watching every single episode within three days. People say that the humor is similar to American Pie, but I disagree; it is more fun by far! The characters are perfect, and the actors have done a magnificent job. The jokes, the scenes and the actors together make this show the funniest I have watched in ages. I could not stop laughing. All I can say is that if you have a sense of humor and a love for stupidity in all shapes, you will love this show. I was really surprised, in the best way possible! Enjoy!

I am a TV lover. I'm into everything and its not often that a show gets me as excited about seeing it again and again and again . really !! this show has got to be the best TV series i have ever seen to date and I've seen a lot. i cannot believe that spike decided not to launch a 4th season. if there is any chance of the show been brought back to life it would make my life a hole not better. this show has given me so much laughter even when things are bad i look to the watch BMS and by the end of one single episode i have a smile and feel great. this show was and is the best TV show i will ever see. please bring it back !!!(please)

Actually i never thought this could be this much fun. Its a non stop fun express.. i would love to see more of this.. i just cant wait to catch the next season.

Great characters,plot and comedy is of the chart.. i laughed non stop and I'm addicted to this show..

I recommend every one to give this show a shot.. i promise you will not regret it not a bit.

Im from India and i love American television very much.. they rock.I almost watch every show except reality and soap.Enjoy guys greetings from India

Blue mountain state rocks a non stop fun show..

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.

Honestly i just watched all 3 seasons start to finish and I've never been so sad to see a series end! You guys should make more episodes please! Like make 4 or 5 more seasons and start advertising yourselves right crazy and get a huuge fan base going on! That'd be right gnarly! Yup throughly enjoyed this series. Your always laughing and its just right crazy, and the stuff they do is just ridiculous. Cant wait for the movie wonder how its gunna go. actually watching it right now and its just a roller coaster of wickedness. id have to say my favourite character would be Moran, hes pretty funny and hes usually chill 'bout everything. i guess thads alright hes pretty funny too.

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.

The title of the review pretty much sums up the entire series- it's a lot of mindless fun with sprinkled bits of genius.

Obviously the latter two of the reviews left by viewers of this show weren't paying full attention or are just looking for a reason to be negative.

Pull up your panties and stop being so sensitive. It's raw, post teen/pre-college humor. Either you never have experienced that point in your life or you did and you were not "part" of it so now you must judge a television show that by all rights took many minds/writers and a CRAP TON OF MONEY to bring to production....must not be too bad, it got a green light for 3 seasons.

Lighten up. Sex, yeah we are humans. From time to time.............wait for it.......... EVERYDAY it is the butt of jokes among friends, family etc.

Give your high horse a rest, it's knees are tired and weary from carrying your lazy internet ass.

BMS!

The series takes us into the world of American college football. The main characters are guys whose life is spinning around sports, sex (or at least aspirations towards it) and endless partying. I can not compare this series with anything, because I do not remember seeing anything similar, and definitely nothing so much fun. I am not competent to comment on the script, directing, acting, or any other aspect of this series, because I was largely overwhelmed by laughter, and totally did not care for its technical aspects or objective quality. It's so addictive that I watched a season daily.

10/10

The show captures the same kind of humor and enjoyment that is displayed in the beloved American Pie franchise. Alan Ritchson's performance as Thad Castle is the definition of perfection. You will laugh your ass off at least 6-7 times each episode. Highly recommend to anyone looking for some laughs. Like I said, it's insanely stupid, but to the point where it becomes classic.

As a person whom doesn't enjoy all these mainstream thing right now like Breaking Bad or Game of Thrones. I really had a hard time finding something to entertain me with, until i found this series.

I can safely say this is my favorite series ever. I've re-watched all the seasons many times, I even watched a whole season in one day.

The simple but brilliant humor will entertain for hours and hours. Many people say this is like American Pie. Surely it has the same kind of humor but with a whole 'nother story behind it, and that is what I love about it. I really feels like all of this would happen at a college and the whole setting of the college is so realistic and all the characters are very love-able.

If there is any series i would watch for the rest of my life, it would be this one.

This is basically the TV version of American Pie with characters who are American Football players. But the show has nothing to do with the sport though. It is all about some of the characters trying to get laid all the time. The people in this series would just have sex with everyone they meet. Alex Moran just gets all the girls he meet. Thad is Stifler.

There is no long story. Every episode is stand alone. You can start watching it from any episode and it would not make a difference.

However, it has some really funny moments. But most of the series is just absurd goofy comedy. Sometimes the characters annoy you to the extreme.

Watch it if you want to watch some senseless comedy with lot of horniness. LOL.

Woah, i came on here expecting to write a review defending this show from critics, but with an average rating of 8.4 stars i now find that i am marking it down! Despite this, i feel my review is positive.

Watch this show expecting a work or art or something serious and your not going to enjoy it. Go in expecting to watch a lighthearted comedy and you won't be disappointed.

The show follows to exploits of playboy college quarterback Alex Moran (Darin Lee Brooks) and his best friend Sammy (Chris Romano) at party school Blue Mountain State.

Memorable performance from Alan Ritchson who plays a kind of anti-hero as team captain Thad Castle.

If you enjoyed movies like Van Wilder Party Liaison or Zoolander, this is worth a watch.

Pretty much your typical garbage about "college life". Disgusting show catering to the lowest common denominator.

When I first started watching this show years ago I would have never thought that I would love it that much. I cant explain it, because there isnt really much to the show and the plot, but it is just amazing. When I first started watching it I got so hooked on it and binged it like nothing else.

Each episode has its own plot and there is only a really minor overarching story over each season, but it is simply great and I dont know how often i allready watched the entire show.

But what is it about? The Blue Mountain State is a college and we follow Alex and Sammy who are best friends and they are just starting their first year at the BMS. So it is a lot about Football, Party Women and all the other stuff they do and experience at the college.

The characters are fantastic and so likeable. And to see how they evolve a bit over the sadly only three seasons is just cool. The story for each episode is simple but great and the humor is wonderfull, so you can almost laugh for the entire episode.

But thats basically it. Really, you can not tell a lot about this show, because the concept is so simple. Just give it a fair try, watch 2-3 episodes and maybe you will also fall in love instantly.

Whoever made this series was 100% high on weed the whole time he wrote the script. This is an absolute banger. love it. a lot laughs.
