After airing three seasons in 2010 and 2011, the Spike TV college football comedy "Blue Mountain State" is currently gearing up for a fourth installment on Amazon Prime. The Eric Falconer and Chris Romano creation starred former "American Idol" contestant Alan Ritchson as team captain and star linebacker Kevin "Thad" Castle, who teamed up with hard-partying quarterback Alex Moran (Darin Brooks) and Coach Marty Daniels (Ed Marinaro) to bring a national championship to the fictional gridiron powerhouse.
