What is reality TV anymore?
It sure isn't the new MTV show Jersey Shore. I not even going to touch on the stereotyping this show took hits one before it even aired. This show is an absolute embarrassment for anyone who hails from or lives in the Garden State. I cannot express enough how much I thought this show sucked. Pegged as depicting one aspect of youth culture and the rites of passage of young people. I just don't see it. The cast is aged from 21 up to almost 30 which I wouldn't exactly call youthful, except possibly if that refers to the limited cranial capacity acting ability, and overall inability of any of them to do even the simplest tasks at a T-shirt store. I wonder if we'll actually ever see "the shore" in this series.
Ted Nugent's Spirit of the Wild, now there's a reality TV personality. If only they'd let Uncle Ted come out to NJ and hunt down the cast of Jersey Shore, this would be an exciting show.
