We had a nice little chat last week about probably one of the most disgraceful and offensive programs MTV has ever debuted, The Jersey Shore. As if it wasn’t enough that we viewers had to sit through episodes of Road Rules, Real World and Made, MTV decided 2009 was the time to really throw is in the mud: A show about a bunch of self-proclaimed “guidos” and “guidettes” spending a summer in a shore house with a map of Italy on the front.
As if “real life” on “The Shore” wasn’t bad enough for the network, MTV staff affiliated with the show have been receiving death threats. From The NY Daily News:
“The MTV building inTimes Squarewas getting crazy threats and they are in the process of hiring more security [and] bodyguards,” an insider revealed to Fox News. Those involved with the press for the show were particular targets — receiving threatening emails, abusive phone calls and even hurtful Facebook messages, says the insider.
Clearly, this show was a terrible idea given that it has received this backlash. Even Domino’s has pulled the trigger, refusing to advertising spots during The Jersey Show. And yet…like… hear at ReallyChill.org, we just can’t stop watching it. Is “Snookie” from Poughkeepsie actually going to leave The House? Who’s The Situation going to do work on?
