Jersey Shore is a reality television series on MTV that follows eight housemates spending their summers together, in the first season at the Jersey Shore, and the second at Miami Beach. The first season was filmed in August 2009 in a summer share in Seaside Heights but was also filmed in other towns such as Toms River, Neptune, and Atlantic City, New Jersey. The show debuted amid large amounts of controversy regarding the use of the words "Guido/Guidette," portrayals of Italian-American stereotypes, and scrutiny from locals because the cast members were not residents of the area.[1][2][3]

Following the success of the first season, MTV announced in January 2010 that a second season consisting of 13 episodes had been ordered and would air that summer.[4] It would follow all of the first season cast as they escape the cold northeast and find themselves in Miami.[4] The second season premiered on July 29, 2010[5] and made the show the highest-rated series in MTV's history. On July 20, 2010, MTV announced that the entire cast, with the exception of Angelina, would return for a third season to be shot back in Seaside Heights, New Jersey and scheduled to air later.[6][7]. This season will begin airing January 6, 2011. MTV has since exported the series to dozens of countries worldwide.[7]

The show is currently in its third season, which premiered on January 6, 2011.[8]

Episodes

Following the success of the first season, MTV announced in January 2010 that a second season consisting of 12 episodes had been ordered and would air that summer.[4][9][10] It would follow all of the first season cast as they "escape the cold northeast and find themselves in a new destination".[4][9] The first half of second season was shot in the South Beach neighborhood of Miami Beach, Florida, in May 2010 and the cast were to relocate back to the Jersey Shore for the rest of filming. It was later determined that the production company had enough footage from the Miami shoot to fill the whole second season[11] scheduled to premiere July 29, 2010,[5] and would instead use the footage to be shot at the Jersey Shore for a third season.

On July 20, 2010, MTV announced that the entire cast, with the exception of Pivarnick, would return for a third season which would air later.[6][7][12] Season 3 will be shot back in Seaside Heights, New Jersey during the summer.[6][7]

Media and merchandise

DVD releases

On February 23, 2010, Amazon.com and MTV teamed up to release Jersey Shore on DVD.[53] The title theme, "Get Crazy" by LMFAO has been changed to a more nondescript trance song. Other songs have been changed since their original air date as well.[citation needed] A retail release by Paramount Home Entertainment with added commentary was released on July 20.[54] Although it is claimed the DVDs are uncensored, the video and some audio is still censored.[55] The DVD also includes special features include deleted scenes, the reunion special, "Tips From The Situation and Snooki," "Before the Shore," and the "Jersey Shore Makeover with Michael Cera" amongst others.[56] On December 28, 2010 the Season 2 UNCENSORED DVD will be released.

Soundtrack and literature

A soundtrack to the series was released by MTV and Universal Republic on July 20, 2010.[57][58] Aimed to create the perfect summer playlist, the album features songs from a variety of artists including Enrique Inglesias, Pitbull, Taio Cruz, Ludacris, Lil Jon, 3OH!3 David Guetta, Fergie, Chris Willis, Girlicious and LMFAO as well as DJs like Deadmau5, Steve Aoki, Tiësto, Diplo, Paul Oakenfold and Pauly D.[58] A deluxe edition of the album was also released containing a bonus CD featuring songs inspired from the first season of the show, like LMFAO's "Get Crazy."[57] The first single off the album was Enrique Iglesias' "I Like It",[57] whose video also featured the Jersey Shore cast.[59] Most recently, in September 2010, Matthew Wilkening of AOL Radio ranked Pauly D's rap song off the soundtrack, "(It's Time to) Beat Dat Beat", as the #1 Worst Song Ever on the list of the 100 Worst Songs Ever; as a bonus, Wilkening used Pauly D's quote as the reason for the #1 list: "Being a guido's a way of life. I don't represent all Italians, I represent myself. I started this whole GTL s--- (Gym, Tan, Laundry). You have to stay fresh to dance."[60]

A quote book titled Gym, Tanning, Laundry: The Official Jersey Shore Quote Book (ISBN 978-1-4391-9682-3) was released by MTV on June 15, 2010.[61] The book also includes a bonus DVD with the most memorable moments from season one of the show.[62] A sticker book titled Jersey Shore Sticker Activity Book (ISBN 0766639045) was also released on the same date,[63] as well as a 2011 wall calendar (ISBN 0740797972) by Andrews McMeel Publishing.[64]

Other

Other merchandise relating to the show have also been released, including talking bobblehead dolls of the cast,[65] a beach game set,[66] a "Gym Tanning Laundry (GTL)" labeled sports bottle,[67] "The Situation - Official App" for iPhone,[68] as well as various T-Shirts.[69]

The cast of Jersey Shore appeared on the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards on September 12, 2010.[70]

Nicole Polizzi also appeared on TLC's Cake Boss episode "Snookie, Super Anthony & a Ship" on November 8, 2010, in which she orders a cake for her mom.

Controversy

MTV received criticism from Italian American organizations for the way in which they marketed the show, as it liberally used the word Guido to describe the cast members.[71] The term 'guido' is generally regarded as an ethnic slur when referring to Italians and Italian Americans. One promotion stated that the show was to follow, "eight of the hottest, tannest, craziest Guidos,"[72] while yet another advertisement stated, "[the show] exposes one of the tri-state area's most misunderstood species... the GUIDO. Yes, they really do exist! Our Guidos and Guidettes will move into the ultimate beach house rental and indulge in everything the Seaside Heights, New Jersey scene has to offer."[73]

Prior to the series debut, UNICO National (which is the largest Italian American organization[citation needed]) formally requested that MTV cancel the show.[74] In a letter to the network, UNICO called the show a "...direct, deliberate and disgraceful attack on Italian Americans..."[75] UNICO National President Andre DiMino said in a statement "MTV has festooned the 'bordello-like' house set with Italian flags and red, white and green maps of New Jersey while every other cutaway shot is of Italian signs and symbols. They are blatantly as well as subliminally bashing Italian-Americans with every technique possible..."[76] Around this time, other Italian-American organizations joined the fight, including the NIAF,[77] the Order Sons of Italy in America and the internet watch-dog ItalianAware.[78][79]

MTV responded to the controversy by issuing a press release which stated in part, "the Italian-American cast takes pride in their ethnicity. We understand that this show is not intended for every audience and depicts just one aspect of youth culture."[71] Since the calls for the show's removal, several sponsors have requested that their ads not be aired during the show. These sponsors include Dell, Domino's and American Family Insurance.[80]

In a February 2010 interview, New Jersey Governor, Chris Christie called the show "negative for New Jersey" because of the fact that most of the cast members are not from New Jersey. "The show takes a bunch of New Yorkers and drops them at the Jersey Shore and tries to make America feel like this is the real New Jersey." Governor Christie has been taking action against the show "The Jersey Shore" by trying to encourage people to experience the real Jersey Shore for themselves rather then watch it through MTV. "I can tell people: they want to know what New Jersey really is? I welcome them to come to New Jersey any time." [81] However, a Fairleigh Dickinson University PublicMind poll released in February 2010 found that the show did not negatively affect Americans' perceptions of New Jersey. In fact, 59% of Americans who had seen the show had a favorable view of New Jersey compared to only 44% of those that had not seen the show.[82]

Parodies

An episode featuring several parodies were made into a special entitled Jersey Shore: Spoof'd, which aired on January 16, 2010, featuring a cast commentary highlighting internet and television spoofs that have sprung up as a direct response to the show. The program also included the original cast audition tapes.[83]

Several songs have been remixed to poke fun at the show and its characters, including "Tik Tok" by Ke$ha, "Empire State of Mind" by Jay-Z, and a spoof of "California Gurls" by Katy Perry entitled "Staten Island Girls".[84][unreliable source?]

The cast has appeared in several episodes of Lopez Tonight, where they starred in spoofs of films such as The Hurt Locker, Inglourious Basterds, Precious, Avatar, and Up In The Air.[85]

The webcomic Jersey Circus is a mashup of artwork from the newspaper comic strip The Family Circus and dialogue from Jersey Shore. It juxtaposes the innocent artwork of the comic with often adult dialogue from the show to parody both media phenomena.[86]

On October 7, 2010, Total Nonstop Action Wrestling debuted two characters by the names of "Robbie E" and "Cookie" forming the team "The Shore" as a parody of Pauly D and Snooki.[87] Jenni "JWoww" Farley, accompanied by The Beautiful People, appeared on the October 14, 2010 edition of TNA Impact! and got into a catfight with Cookie.[88][89][90]

The ninth episode of the fourteenth season of South Park, entitled "It's a Jersey Thing", parodied the cast of Jersey Shore, referring to the on-coming citizens of New Jersey as "Jerseyites", as the said invaders plan to make all of the United States into New Jersey. The character Snooki was portrayed as a hairy monster wearing fuzzy slippers that she is known to wear throughout numerous Jersey Shore episodes, a low cut revealing shirt, and eating pickles from a jar she carried around. Snooki would attack different men and jump on top of them and sexually "ride" them and say "Snooki want smoosh smoosh" in a high pitched scratchy voice.[91]

Other parodies are seen on YouTube, where viewers of the show post their own parodies of the cast. [92]
