millionaire who will eventually become his arch-enemy.
The Mountain
New Hour Drama/ Wednesdays at 9/8c
Oliver Hudson, Anson Mount, Barbara Hershy, Tara Thompson,Alana De La Garza, Johann Urb, Elizabeth Bogush, Tommy
Dewey
Against the backdrop of an alluring playground of wealth, privilege, extreme sports, and fireside affairs, unfolds the
latest drama from producer McG. The Mountain chronicles the larger-than-life saga of the Carver family. With only
sweat and determination, David Carver Sr. transformed a remote Utah mountain into the country's largest independently-owned
ski resort. Upon his death, the patriarch's will sends shockwaves through his family, as he chooses the most unlikely of heirs.
As a rebellious teen, David Carver, Jr. (Oliver Hudson) abandoned the close-knit Carver clan to make his own way in the world.
Now he's returned to Boundary Mountain to find himself in the very eye of the family storm. The family resort, now in his
name, is plagued with sagging profits, and his family, particularly his resentful older brother, questions his competence.
Complicating David's decision to sell out or stay is his mother (Barbara Hershey), his combative teenage sister, and a stream
of beautiful women out to snare the newly-minted mogul... not to mention a rival family that will stop at nothing to pull
Boundary Mountain into their own real estate empire.

Houses, cheap beer to even cheaper lingerie. The WB audience is about to get a 64-oz. Big Gulp of red, white, and blue collar
comedy.
Drew Carey's Green Screen Show
New Half-Hour Comedy/ Wednesdays at 9:30/8:30
Drew Carey
Drew Carey and his comic friends have a clever plan to shake up the concept of live improv comedy. Yes, he'll have his
performers act out quirky ideas suggested by an audience ("You're getting married underwater and are attacked by a giant squid.").
But, with the aid of green screen, Drew's behind-the-scenes team will animate the skits, creating an actual improvised movie
- bringing to life what's really going on inside their vivid imaginations. It promises to be a very fun and lively marriage
of improv and animation as only Drew Carey could pull off.
