James Marsters on The Mountain

I looked and didn't see a thread on this already and since I am apparently the only person here left that watches The Mountain, I thought I would let everyone know that James Marsters is suppose to be on the show this week 11/21/04.

Not sure whether this will be the only episode or not, but the previews said something about things changing when Buffy's James Marsters comes into town.

This is going to be weird.

I hated this show, so stopped watching it after two eps, but then found out James Marsters would be appearing in a few eps, so started up again at ep 5. The power of Spike. Though it will be weird to hear him without his british accent (assuming they don't have him use one like on buffy).

I gave up after two episodes also.

Spike just might make me tune in. When does this show air now? I seem to recall they moved it.

Never heard of this show but Marsters was brilliant on Buffy (he lost some steam eventually but still...)

Might be worth a look, I guess.

I don't think even he can save this show...

The first hour of "Category 6" gave CBS an impressive 12.3/18 for the 9 p.m. hour, better than the 9.7/14 for "Law & Order: Criminal Intent" on NBC. ABC got a solid 9.2/13 for the AMAs, nearly tripling up the ratings for FOX's "My Big Fat Obnoxious Boss." The WB's "The Mountain" (recently dubbed a word-of-mouth hit by the wags at the New York Post) did an anemic 1.2/2.
That's about as low as a network show can go. Yikes.

McEnroe would kill for those numbers.

I've actually seen all the episodes of The Mountain so far. I have a weakness for the chicks on the show, plus Desperate Housewives wasn't on last Sunday.

It's weird not to hear James Marster speak with a British accent when he was at Dragon Con in 2003.

Yeah, I remember when he was a guest on Politically Incorrect being shocked by his California surfer-dude voice. He came off very intelligent, also. I'd like to see him do the talk show circuit more often, that's the only time I've ever seen him outside of Spike.

The show now comes on Sunday at 9 pm for those are wondering.

This show isn't too terrible, but there really isn't anything else on at 9pm on sunday. I don't care for Housewives.

So have I. And I just found out that my sister and her husband watch it, too, which surprised me because they never watch anything on the WB together.

Ok, this thread must have affected my dreams because last night I had a dream that James Marsters was going to have a talk show on (appropriately) Spike TV. :

I didn't realize the pun until I woke up. Oh and his show was going to air opposite The Mountain.
