Jersey Shore Forum

I don't visit TMZ very often, and now I'm kind of wishing I hadn't gone over there today, because they're pointing out this casting call page by Doron Ofir Casting for what sounds suspiciously like a southern-ized version of Jersey Shore. Will it be as awful as waiting for your nail to fall off after stubbing your toe? You betcha. Will it be amazingly popular and serve as a cultural touchstone for late-night monologues and lazy comedians for the next couple of years? Also, yes. 
 
Now, I've got family in the south, and I've spent a couple of long vacations down Alabama way, so trust me when I say that those kids know how to party, and also have the kinds of life priorities that lead to spending more on their cars than on their homes, or babysitting their grandkids by the time they're 30 years old. So this will probably be a trainwreck of epic proportions, but like any good trainwreck, you probably won't be able to tear your eyes away. Unless, of course, you prefer to stick with entertainment with a shred of dignity attached to it.  

Are they gonna have brother sister combos that bang each other then fist pump.

A couple months ago they put out an almost identical casting call in Boston. Replace "y'all" with "wicked" and it's basically the same awful press release.

Oh thank FSM, I originally read that as "South Jersey Shore" and started to freak out thinking that those dirty Northern NJ folk were heading down my way.

As a frequent watcher of anything with the "...of Love" suffix, no, I don't prefer entertainment with any dignity whatsoever. I missed the Jersey Shore bandwagon when that rolled into town. I won't miss this.

Holler if You're Blue Coller 
 
This ought to be good. I wonder what kind of person responds to these types of casting calls? Does it occur to them that they'd make a compelling stereotypical character for a reality series? I'll never understand it, but as long as it continues spawning great television and nobody I know gets involved, I'm all for it.

At least they won't be taking anyone's job....I hear they don't take kindly to that down south.

I'm from Alabama....this saddens me because I know how much of a hit it will be down here....ya'll a heeyuck.

Yay... no wait.. wrong answer.

Just what us Southerners need, a TV show that rounds up all the local trash they can find and puts it on TV for the masses............great..........

@Kevin:
Don't you hate it Jersey Shore gave Jersey such a bad rep when we are actually a great state. 
Ah whatever now we have more reason to make fun of the south at least

I can't wait for the Native American version
"Don't be the only Navajo, who's not a hoe!"
They'll drinkum firewater and smokum peacepipe while gambling away the house they live in.

Give Chazz his own show then i'll watch
