its pretty funny...but only because i know a bunch of the people in it. very very weird to see how different it is on camera.

You can watch the 1st episode on youtube. Its just like the hills....but about drinking, djing, having sex, and a lil skiing/ snowboarding.

Stupid drama, but i'm gonna watch only cuz i like to see dre, jason and jenn on tv. funny shit.

the wild life of being a spoiled bum in whistler is worth a show...

I don't even know what to say about this show... I hate MTV! its not even about the music any more man!!! what happened to the music!!!

I laughed when i saw the preview, nothing but people bullshitting... My girlfriend thinks its a good show and thinks thats how life really is. She snapped at me when I said it's GAWWWWWBAAAAAAGEEE!!

Fuck you MTV, why don't you just come to Kicking Horse and film some real drama

i was born and raised in whistler and i know about half the people in the show, but they hit whistler on the head.

the drama, the drinking, everything. its exactly like that for the bar stars and the people who want to live their lives like that. and that's what whistler is known for: drinking, drama, sex, drugs, partying, skiing/snowboarding, etc.
not everyone who lives in whistler is like this though. they just pulled the parts of whistler that they knew would sell and made it into reality TV, and guys, don't forget it is scripted.

I ripped through an entire episode and saw one backflip 180 from a snowboarder. There was drinking, hockey, and sledding, but I guess they just couldn't put any actual riding in. oh well.

Yeah Drop In was sick. At least that show showed riding most of the time and not drama.

Pretty much. I love it though, cuz like a lot of people above, I'm friends with everyone on the show, so I think it's pretty funny. They've definitely done a great job capturing how it is at the bars for those of us are who are in that scene.

I got to know the real Whistler and this show is watered down lame ass staged ass shit. Watching the show actually made me upset just how scene they try to portray it. But it is what it is and it's the Hollywood of the ski world.

3 3/4 years clean & sober since I left too, anyone see a parallel?
