I'm not so sure that this is a scripted drama. Go to any Olive Garden in New Jersey and you'll witness an extremely similar scene (although the parents wouldn't cover their children's ears upon the word bitch, the maitre d' should have more hair gel, and there would be 470% more acrylic nails).
Thanks MTV for reminding me why I'm glad I canceled my cable.
And double thanks to Tracie for providing me with the most awesome moments of bad tv so I don't have to pay for it. #mtvjerseyshore
@Beets.Go.On is the Fat Yogini: ha! I knew people who went there and they called the girls from the east coast who attended the school the "black pants mafia" as they wore those stretchy (kinda trashy) black club pants that were popular at the time everywhere? #mtvjerseyshore
@bluebears: The sorostitutes! (But damn if I would ever say it to their faces. Who knows what weapons they could carry in that big hair.) #mtvjerseyshore
This isn't new, unless the "new" aspect is picking out the housemates. They had a whole show like this already, called, if I'm not mistaken, True Life: Jersey Shore or some such. But it was a full season, not a regular TL episode.
If anyone needs me, I'll be over here reading Shakespeare. #mtvjerseyshore
Funny how I've been going to the Jersey Shore for 28 years and I've never seen a preponderance of these fellows. Is reality tv perhaps -- gasp! -- exaggerating reality? #mtvjerseyshore
@BytheSea: they certainly aren't really from the jersey shore. i'm not a benny hater - you can bring money into my town in the summer all you want. but i hate when its shown that these are the people that live here. they don't (at least not from september to june). #mtvjerseyshore
@IBleedGlitter: The High Priestess of Tinsel: Why would you go to Seaside and Wildwood UNLESS you want to hang out with people like that? Wildwood has the added bonus of people who think Confederate flag gear is AWESOMES.
@IBleedGlitter: The High Priestess of Tinsel: Does Wildwood still have the mile long beach? I've been there once and decided I'd stay with a beach where you didn't need a camel to get to the water. #mtvjerseyshore
@seat_5a: Because a lot of my friends in HS did want to hang out with people like that and I was just tagging along. I still have a lot of friends that think Seaside is the place to be in the summer. #mtvjerseyshore
@IBleedGlitter: The High Priestess of Tinsel: LBI beach is shrinking somethin terrible. You have to go on the dunes at high tide or you and your smuggled wine coolers get washed out to sea.
@BytheSea: sorry - its what the locals call the tourists. stems from the trainstops. Bayonne Elizabeth Newark New York. BGH (Benny's go home) is a big mantra for locals in the summer. However I worked at a restaurant by the ocean ever summer of college so I'm quite thankful for the benny's and use the term quite affectionately. #mtvjerseyshore

It's not good acting if your playing yourself.

I think it would have been more convincing if they'd done the Jersey Shore fist pump into the air.
