Is Jersey Shore Already Over?

As a fan of Jersey Shore, I have to admit I was pretty sad to hear this is the last season.  I have grown to love the Jersey Shore crew just as if I know them myself.  However, now that I've seen the first episode, I know it is time for the show to end.

No one can stay young forever, and the gang is getting older and moving on.  After all, you can't (or at least shouldn't) have a house full of adults partying every summer without real responsibilities.  They are all changing and moving on.

Snooki was pregnant while filming this season of Jersey Shore.  You simply can't have Jersey Shore without Snooki, but pregnant, responsible Snooki isn't going to pull in ratings.  Sure, we all love her and probably respect her more now, and in the end, this makes her a better person.  But Jersey Shore just isn't the same.

The Situation has been to rehab recently and he is now trying to make amends with his roommates.  He is no longer drinking.  Although, once again, this makes him a better person, this is also a strange turn of events for a show known for partying.

Finally, we have Vinny now deciding he is going to be celibate.  I am kind of hoping that is a joke, but something tells me it isn't.  It seems as if half the house is trying to go down a healthier path. 

While I applaud these efforts, it makes me realize Jersey Shore and its glory days have truly ended.  I want nothing for the best for these people I almost feel I've gotten to know on a personal level, but I know this really should be the last season of Jersey Shore.

Snooki Has a Baby

Yes, that loveable "Meatball" from Jersey Shore just had a baby boy.  Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi and Jionni LaVelle now have a son named Lorenzo.  Snooki gave birth this weekend and I am sure there will be many photos to follow.  Somehow, I kind of suspect a new reality show will come from all of this, but who knows?

There are those that have been a little rude about Snooki being pregnant, but she seems responsible enough in her show with JWoww.  She is not drinking and not partying.  It looks as if Snooki is really happy and I wish her nothing but this best.

Jerzathon - A Jersey Shore Weekend

Since Jersey Shore will be wrapping up its 5th season this coming Thursday, MTV has decided to give the fans a going away present.  This weekend is the Jerzathon.  For those of you that don't speak MTV language, this means there is a Jersey Shore marathon all weekend.

You get to see all the craziness that is Jersey Shore all day long.  You can see Angelina walk out - twice, watch JWoww hit the Situation, see Deena begin her Jersey Shore journey, and watch various stalkers go after the guys.  It is also a good time to learn about DTF, GTL, and any other Jersey Shore terms you don't fully understand yet.

So if you are sitting in front of your TV right now, it is a great time to watch Jersey Shore.  Come on, you know you want to anyway, so go for it.

Jersey Shore - The Educational Aspects

Some people tend to think MTV's Jersey Shore has nothing useful to offer its viewers, but I beg to differ.  I have learned so many wonderful new facts from watching Jersey Shore.  I am ever so grateful Jersey Shore returned to MTV last Thursday.  I am sure there is much more to learn!

I now know the meaning of the terms GTL, grenades, gorilla juicehead, and smushing.  I also understand the importance of a good tan.  I realize it is better to be orange than pale.

Aside from those educational moments, I've also learned some new dance moves, such as the Jersey Turnpike and fist pumping.  I know how to have a great dance battle.  I also know how to dress (or not dress) when going to the clubs.

As if all of that was not enough, I've even learned some awesome fight moves.  I am ready to defend myself at a moment's notice now.

Thanks, Jersey Shore!  You've made my life better in so many ways!

Jersey Shore Returns to MTV on January 5th!

For all you Jersey Shore fans, you are about to get exactly what you want for Christmas.  The Jersey Shore is returning to MTV on January 5, 2012.  The gang will return to Seaside Heights, which is exactly what fans want to see.  Looks like there is going to be more ridiculous adventures, some fights with the Situation, and the Meatballs will be back to their usual clumsiness.  All seems right in the world.

So, for you Jersey Shore fans, here is a sneak peak showing you what you can look forward to this season:

The Jersey Shore is Back Tonight!

FINALLY!  The Jersey Shore returns to MTV tonight.  The Jersey Shore is entering its 4th season and they will be in Italy this time.  I can't imagine how this group is going to function in Italy, but I suppose it should be fun to watch.  Apparently we will get to see fights (of course), a car accident, and hot Italians (actually from Italy, not the usual Jersey Shore crew).

I guess there is really not too much to say about it.  Jersey Shore is back and life is complete again.  So tune in at 10 and enjoy.  Just sayin!

Jersey Shore Withdrawal

Whether I want to admit it or not, I have been experiencing Jersey Shore Withdrawal.  It starts out simple: you find yourself checking MTV looking for Jersey Shore reruns.  Next, you start scoping out On Demand programs looking for it.  After that, you start to watch small portions of the show on YouTube.  Finally, you start pricing the DVDs and checking MTV's site to learn when the show is finally coming back on.

I am happy to announce, the wait is over on August 4th.  Finally, the Jersey Shore is coming back to MTV on August 4th at 10 PM.  I am ever so grateful.  I was tired of fist pumping on my own or considering putting my own poof in my hair.  The Jersey Shore is coming back!

In case you are curious about the trailer, you can watch it below on YouTube.  As if it is not enough seeing them in Italy, they are also currently filming the 5th season in Seaside Heights again.  I can't imagine how they can still pull that off and still work at the T-Shirt shop, but whatever.  As long as they are airing it, I will watch it.  Long live the Jersey Shore!

Reality TV and How to be a Star

I have to admit it, as much as I will make fun of reality TV, I sit there and watch it just like anyone else.  I watch reality shows all the time.  Usually the worst shows are the most entertaining to watch.

Since I watch these shows all the time, I thought it would be fun to create a "How to" guide on Hubpages about becoming a reality show star.  Now, obviously I am not a reality show star or I would not have time to constantly write blog posts and write articles.  I just thought it would be funny.

The Jersey Shore Poop Saga

Why, oh why, is every episode about poop now on the Jersey Shore?  For 3 weeks, the audience has been forced to follow the ongoing battle between the roommates and the stopped toilet.

First, we were subjected to Deena's constipation issues, Ronnie crying in the work bathroom while Snooki had to go, and then Vinnie not being able to use the bathroom because of the stopped toilet.  You would think one full episode full of potty discussions would be enough.  Apparently, it was not.

The next week we got to see Vinnie struggle while trying to unplug the toilet. Of course, he was unsuccessful.  For some reason, this did not resolve itself in that episode.  Nope.  So there had to be a third episode about the clogged toilet.

This past week's episode, we got to see two plumbers come in and fish a shirt out of the toilet. All along, a shirt had been plugging the toilet.  I know what you are thinking - riveting television!  I know.  Where would we be without it?  Of course, leave it me, I sat and watched all of it.  So not only do I not understand why we needed three poo themed episodes, I am not entirely sure why I watched it.  I will have to give that some thought.
