Jersey Shore Season 4

First off, let’s be humble and say, Italy, we’re sorry. Sending these MTV reality stars from New Jersey to their ‘cultural homeland’ (again, sorry) seemed like a good idea. Ten minutes after the plane landed, it was clear how big a mistake it was, at least in terms of future Italian/American relationships. On the lighter side, though, you have to admit it made for great TV. Whether it was watching Ronnie stumble around in a drunken stupor or Snooki fighting off the amorous advances of a drunken Situation or Deena drunkenly throwing herself at Pauly D, it was hard not to watch. The unreality of their lives is just so compelling, especially when they get a chance to sit alone in front of the camera (more or less sober, for once) and explain what they were thinking when they did what they did. You may not care about them, but it’s impossible not to stay tuned to see what they will do next.
