Meet the Cast of Jersey Shore
These colorful characters will instantly become your new reality show best friends when the MTV show about eight guidos in a summer house starts tonight. It's going to be epic. And yes, we will be live blogging the 10pm debut.
Here they are, the four men and four women who let their summer of tanning, partying, fighting, grooming, loving, and Armani Exchange shopping in Seaside Heights, New Jersey, be filmed for the rest of America to ridicule. Italian American groups are up in arms about the show, saying it's racist against Italians. That means it is bound to be even better than we thought.
How could we let an event of such cultural and anthropological significance as the two-hour world premiere of Jersey Shore pass without notice! Come back on 9pm for the Jersey Shore live blog. You'll see a post and just click on that and there will be full instructions. If the show is even half as good as the full promo (at the bottom of the post) it will be nothing short of miraculous. And if the live blog is even half as fun as that, it will be better than an evening alone with a bottle of wine crying yourself to sleep while watching the Real Housewives of Orange County.
