I think a lot of mainstream reviewers are quick to throw this show in the garbage because it flies in the face of the things they believe about life and women. I think a lot of you guys are quick to throw this show in the garbage because… it flies in the face of the things they believe about life and women.

Quote:“Do we really need another storyline that paints women as gold-digging whores? I don’t think we do.

Within the world of Ballers, just about every woman is an accessory until she’s a problem. They’re flesh and saliva until their money-hungry bitches.”

As there is in life. This (seems to be) a pretty realistic depiction of modern day hedonism, and to ignore that seems very stubborn.

Quote:“1. You see that retired player the first time in his bloody life come to something grand as the FUN HOUSE (great idea by the way, but you need massive passive attraction to pull this off) and all he does is get stoned. Then after his wife comes, he claims that this is not "him" - he just wants her to take care of him. Then she is still pissed and goes off after this display of Omegadom.

2. The Rock displays weakness and "sensitivity" to his all-knowing, smart-assing LTR. It's always fun to see someone like the Rock say that he is fucking scared of an MRI. While it is true that we all have our fears, we all know that sharing those things with a woman is not the way to go. That's what close male friends are for who won't think: "What a Beta! Somehow I feel less of an urge to respect and fuck him now."

3. The successful but sleazy guy at the horse-track confesses that he pursued the hot waitress for an entire year and still cannot fuck her. All the Blue Pill Betas will think: "Gee - you see, even somewhat successful men cannot get laid with hotties if they are sleazy and chauvinistic. I need to be a "good and proper" man.

4. And the fucking worst moment was the conversation at the FUN HOUSE, where they talk about fucking the easy bitches by using your passing high market value (most players won't attract much poon passively after ending their careers). Instead of having fun with it and being a man, he talks about all of this being immature, insecure and selfish!!!!!”

But would you say these characterizations of people are without basis? That these characters or situations are “unbelievable”? For the fem-centric society we currently exist in, to see this show and say it’s not “red pill” enough is simply asking too much. If you truly believe that, I don’t see how you could consume ANY content that lies outside of the realm of the manosphere. I don’t have a problem with Charles storyline because I’ve known Charles. I don’t have a problem the Spencer’s storyline because I can easily imagine he exists.

Maybe it’s just me, but I don’t feel like everything I consume has to align with my values 100%. Unfortunately, it seems that’s the way the mainstream media (as I expected) takes it, along with guys around here. Somewhat disappointing, but ultimately expected.

Also, two great lines:

“I was lying, you do look like shit, you look terrible, you smell too.”

“And you, LeBron did the right thing by going back to Cleveland.”

On another note, I'd like to point out how superb the music has been in this series.

Yes, shows like this have no problem with casting some women as totally hypergamous sluts...while having female leads who are responsible and dedicated...women that any man would be lucky to have.

I can't think of a single television show where women are consistently properly portrayed as they are.

Shows like this concrete the "not all women are like that" lies.

Not award winning television, but the first season of Blue Mountain State did not ONCE show ANY girl as anything more than a slut. There was one episode that opened with a the shows resident loser dating a girl that was a virgin. Episode ended with her ready, willing, and able to get fucked by every single member of the lacrosse and football team... I'm sure it didn't change the following seasons, but I haven't watched them yet so I can't say for sure.

Did the show reflect other redpill leanings?

Quite a few. Here was a decent article that summed up the major points. I don't know how comfortable I'd feel telling someone it's a "must watch", but if you're sick of depictions of girls in televisions as the femme heroes of the world, this is the cure. You'll also wonder how the hell it ran on television for three seasons without a peep from anyone...

Starting watching Blue Mountain State on this recommendation and it really is redpill as fuck. The coach's "you come from your father's balls" speech, how much shit the resident AFC puts up with due to extreme oneitis over a virgin (who was fucking everybody but him) and being an overall supplicating beta, showing what girls in a college town will do for somebody with status, it's definitely worth a watch.

I had hope this show would be different than your typical stuff, but now it's just getting silly.

If I recall correctly, everyone of the guys in the most recent episodes have become supplicating over a girl in one form or another, or shown considerable weakness.

They flashed us some boobs and sex scenes, but those scenes feel like bits of meat thrown to the dog in order for him to chew down the feminist/feminine imperative poison.

The show is great light entertainment, like Entourage, but isn't hard hitting or visceral like other HBO greats such as Oz, The Soprano's or Deadwood.
I'm enjoying watching it because I'm a big fan of the rock and it's got plenty of hot chicks but the red pill message isn't there.

Started out great, now it's just like a female fantasy on powerful men and athletes. I'll finish the season but unless it takes a miraculous turn I'll dump it henceforth.

No love for season 2? Gonna start watching now, hope it's entertaining at least
