Shouldn't have been canceled

This was a really fun show and definitely should not have been canceled. I've seen Jack and Bobby and I agree, it stinks compared to The Mountain. The WB could have hit it big with all of these potential stars... Hello- Oliver Hudson is going to be HUGE!!! The WB definitely missed out. I hate when shows are canceled this early because it is such a pain to not know what is going to happen. Tommy Dewey was also really fun to watch. He was really cute and the love triangle between Shelley, Michael and Sam was great. I don't understand why the WB would have kept such a weird show (not to mention unpopular!) like Jack & Bobby over this super fun show... it's like the O.C. but with snow and snowboarding!!! How can you lose? I hope they release the episodes on DVD.
