Guilty pleasure, or do you think it's dumbing down america and making it look like most americans really act and live this way to other countries. It got me thinking after I saw a commercial for the new tv show H8ters where one of the episodes snooki confronts a guy that says he really hates her. My personal opinion is that I hope kids don't grow up thinking that this is what their lives should be like and this is how they should act and that superficial things should really matter that much in their lives. But enough of what I think, What do you guys think?

    There are two things that have killed many of my brain cells - all that pot and plenty of Jersey Shore

    I'm originally from Pennsylvania, my opinion in general is that Jersey should be destroyed and PA should be given a beach. I'm not a fan of Jersey in general, let alone the TV show. Which I've never actually seen, because it came out of Jersey.

    It's my guilty pleasure, i think most people know that their behavior isnt whats normal lol, but they are young and loving the lime light, and we get to laugh at their ridiculousness... I wait for Thursday night all week!

    Dumbest show ever... people are getting paid to hook up and get drunk. Life doesn't get much more unproductive than that!

    I'm all for having a good time... partying it up... etc. BUT COME ON! It certainly doesn't make you a celebrity!

    i'm convinced those who watch Jersey Shore do not think. I'm reporting this post for being completely counterintuitive.


    i'm totally kidding. i just wanted to use the word "counterintuitive" again today.

    I LOVE Jersy Shore!!!! I love all shows like that, jerseylicious, all the housewive series, real world, etc. I have no life, and its entertainment for me to watch other people live a fake one. If parents are blaming how their kids act because of tv, then maybe they should actually spend time with their kids instead of letting them go into their rooms and have the tv be the babysitter. I had mtv be my babysitter when i was younger and i'm not on drugs, slappin up hoes and thuggin out on my block. If your kids are behaving badly, its because they are young and wild, not because of Jersey Shore. In the 50's people were sexing it up at drive ins, and they never even allowed sex in movies like that. So who can they blame their wild actions on? Kids will be kids

    I think it's an awful show and that the people on it are terrible role models, but I also despise the word HATE. I think it's terrible that people would say that they "hate" people that they've never even met. They may not be the best people out there, but c'mon they're just young people and have no real grasp on life yet. People need to lay off others and spread a little more love and a lot less hate.

    I personally LOVE me some Jersey Shore! I look forward to watching it every week. However, I think their live style is their choice and if they want to go public with it, than go for it! I would NEVER live my life that way, hell I don't even drink. I can't really say I agree w/ their life style....but it's fun to watch how ridiculous they can be and they make me laugh constantly. SO for me it's a guily pleasure.

    Unfortunately, there really are people who live that way all over the world, the show just puts it on blast so to speak!

    It is shameful and ridiculous. I do not let my teenagers watch it, and it makes me want to cancel cable.

    I like the show. I don't watch it when it first airs. I normally wait till I am at home flipping channels and there's a rerun. It's entertaining and believe it or not people that is how a lot of 21 - 30 year olds would be living if they were making $10k+ per episode. lol A majority of my friends are spending their weekends drinking and hooking up. The Jeresey Shore cast just so happens to be able to do it for 3 months and get paid for it.

    But it does, apparently, make you a New York Times bestselling author.

    Snooki makes me want to blow up the whole northeast. Unfortunately I live here, too. Sigh.

    Can I just add, Snooki is not even from Jersey, SHE'S FROM FREAKING POUGHKEEPSIE. :grumble:

    WHAT is this magical thing that I must be watching? Is it better than "America's Most Smartest Model"?
