coffeepolarbear This show was great!!! I am still disappointed that it was CANNED. I don't think it was given a REAL chance to blow up a hit. I told everyone I knew about the show. The plot, the characters, the setting it was a real good show that I haven't seen on The WB in a long time since the Buffy days! When people finally got a chance to tune in the show was gone! Poof just like that!!! VERY Disappointing!!I would love to see the show come back,....just where it left off!! At least there is 'Supernatural' which proves every episode too kick butt! I love the show! I am a true old school fan of the WB. I watched Buffy, Angel and Charmed since day one! Charmed is even losing it's touch, for about a year now. We need good new shows!! The teeny boppers are grown up now. I guess you have a pretty good audience with Smallville,One Tree Hill and other like shows, but I can't stand them! We know the older people ARE watching TV, with pretty big 'grown up' hits on other networks! Just give us something...like 'The Mountain'.
candyland07 The Mountain is the best show ever on the WB but of coarse they had to cancel it. I think people in the Television have no brains. They always cancel the best shows and leave the scummy ones on. Take Fox for an example they put on a really good show called Tru calling and a year later they cancel it and after a lot of bagging and pleading from 3/4 of Fox's viewers they finally give us another 1/2 of a season. So then they replace the show with Point Pleasant which is kinda boring in the begging but grows on ya after 10 min. And after 4 or 5 episodes what do they do again? THEY CANCEL IT AGAIN! If you ask me we should get a hole lot of new TV producers cause I don't think they know how to do there job if any of them are reading this get the FUDGE out and let someone else take over for instance someone who knows how to do there job and satisfy! -A very angry Viewer
Davis32683 This was a really fun show and definitely should not have been canceled. I've seen Jack and Bobby and I agree, it stinks compared to The Mountain. The WB could have hit it big with all of these potential stars... Hello- Oliver Hudson is going to be HUGE!!! The WB definitely missed out. I hate when shows are canceled this early because it is such a pain to not know what is going to happen. Tommy Dewey was also really fun to watch. He was really cute and the love triangle between Shelley, Michael and Sam was great. I don't understand why the WB would have kept such a weird show (not to mention unpopular!) like Jack & Bobby over this super fun show... it's like the O.C. but with snow and snowboarding!!! How can you lose? I hope they release the episodes on DVD.
SonicStuart When I first watched "The Mountain" I liked and thought it had the chances of becoming a popular show on The WB sort of like "Dawson's Creek". The show is about a guy named David Carver Jr. (Oilver Hudson, who is Kate Hudson's brother) who is an irresponsible, un-kept young man, returns to his family owned ski resort in Colorado after the death of his grandfather to find that he, the youngest son, has inherited the entire mountain which puts him at odds with his older brother Will, the resort manager, who's holding out against being bought out by Colin Dowling, a scheming land developer. Other characters involved in the power struggle are David and Will's youngest sister Shelley, a local teen wanting to make it big as a champion snowboarder; Maria Serrano, David's former girlfriend, now Will's girlfriend; the double-dealing resort operator Travis, whom is under the control of Dowling and his son Michael; and the Downling's attractive daughter Maxine 'Max' whom falls for David while trying to get him to sell the mountain to her father. I think the show was kind of like "Everwood" meets "Dawson's Creek" meets "The O.C." meets "Beverly Hills 90210" meets "Summerland". Except the show is different from all those others but still kind of like them. This show came on Wednesdays on The WB until the show switched places with "Jack and Bobby" (which is a really crappy show!) and the show was on Sundays and was being crushed in a competition by ABC's "Desperate Housewives" and then the show was canceled and only had 13 episodes. I can't believe why The WB would make a very stupid decision by picking "Jack and Bobby" over "The Mountain"! I wish this show didn't last one season!User Rating: 10/10BOTTOM LINE: GREAT SHOW WITH REAL POTENTIAL IN BECOMING A HIT!
