Critic Reviews

Mark A. Perigard

The show is often so gross, one is tempted to suggest that our local arts schools should start steering its graduates toward more meaningful fields--such as automotive mechanics or doggy waste disposal. But Blue is also frequently funny in a raunchy “American Pie” way. Read full review

Brian Lowry

While it's nice that Spike is seeking to widen its narrow unscripted profile, by hewing so closely to its formula, the net has simply made this too-blue Mountain into a comedic molehill. Read full review

Matthew Gilbert

Alas, it’s an amateurish take that feels more like a string of failed “Funny or Die’’ sketches than a fully developed series with distinct characters. Read full review

Neil Genzlinger

Blue Mountain State, a bawdy comedy about a fictional college football powerhouse that had a sneak-peek showing on Monday, is dumb even by frat-boy standards. Read full review

This hilarious depiction of college football life takes an 'Animal House' approach as it follows the life of college freshman Alex Muran and best friend Sammie. Alex must balance school, football, partying and an almost endless stream of girls as he faces numerous almost ridiculous situations. If you watch Blue Mountain State, you are guaranteed a good laugh. I give the show a 10!… Expand

Really? 38 out of 100 for this great comedy? Shame on the critics. This show is simply hilarious, so apparently you guys are rating based on things everyone is missing. It isn't supposed to be smart. It only fails in the writing, and yet not completely - enough for me to give it 8,5/10. OnlyReally? 38 out of 100 for this great comedy? Shame on the critics. This show is simply hilarious, so apparently you guys are rating based on things everyone is missing. It isn't supposed to be smart. It only fails in the writing, and yet not completely - enough for me to give it 8,5/10. Only because the episodes are not linked and sometimes we feel the stories could be more "real". But that's what makes Blue Mountain State funny: reality is not needed. Impossible situations make the series delightful to watch and every episode makes me laugh hard. Every.

So, nobody should take the decision of don't watch or watch the show based on the critic. It's not fair at all. The show is completely hilarious and that's what it proposes.… Expand

Yes, it's raunchy. Yes, it is juvenile. However, it gave me some good belly laughs.

I am a high school student. I enjoy fart jokes and cursing as much as the next guy. But there comes a point in time when pure idiocy should not be put to film. There is not one single moment of genuine comedy in this entire series. Replacing clever writing and humor with crass and crude gagsI am a high school student. I enjoy fart jokes and cursing as much as the next guy. But there comes a point in time when pure idiocy should not be put to film. There is not one single moment of genuine comedy in this entire series. Replacing clever writing and humor with crass and crude gags does not constitute a "show." There is a certain brand of stupid that comes with this show. The fact that multiple people get writing credit on this show is a tragedy in and of itself. Not to mention the sub-par acting. It's a shame that the American public grants shows like this screen time. And because of its popularity, there is now going to be a movie. Hoorah… Expand
