The Jersey Shore is MTV’s most successful reality TV show they have ever put out. Originally premiering in 2009 it followed the summer of best friends Pauly D, Snooki, The Situation, Sammi Sweetheart, Ronnie, J-wow, Vinny and Angelina. Although there was plenty of drama we got to see this group become best friends while clubbing, tanning and doing their laundry. It aired for 6 seasons and received a whopping 8.8 million total viewers for its season four premiere and inspired countless spinoffs of the show.
But this time they are doing a spin-off of themselves. The producers finally realized that no spin-off is going to be close to the entertainment value of the original stars, which is why on April 5th the “Jersey Shore Family Reunion” premieres on MTV April 5th, 2018.
Check out the trailer here:
I’m extremely excited for the reunion but I wonder how the show is going to be now that they are all in their 30s at this point in their lives. Snooki and J-wow have kids now and basically, everyone is almost married or married. I wonder how that is going to play out when they are back at the shore. Kids change people and we might not be seeing them get too trashy.
Also, it looks like almost everyone has plastic surgery. Is it going to have the same appeal now that they are all insanely rich, or will that give them the motive to make this reunion show insanely popular to keep their status?
Overall I am happy to tune in to watch their reunion. Hopefully, it doesn’t ruin the old seasons for us, but with all the drama of Mike the Situation going to jail, and the fact that Ron is getting married it is sure to be entertaining. Maybe that’s why Sammi doesn’t want to go! Hopefully, they still have their alcohol tolerance or we might see a lot of puking.
