Unimpressed, Miami sends “Jersey Shore” Cast Packing
So it seems the cast of Jersey Shore is packing up its bump-its, tanning lotion and steroids and trudging back from whence it came. Sent packing back to Jersey with their collective tails between their legs. Couldn’t hack it, had to pack it. South Beach isn’t so awesome when you’re not cool enough to get in anywhere, is it MTV? Gotta go back to a place desperate for any kind of media attention, because lord knows we get enough.
WE HAVE AN IMAGE AND EGOS TO MAINTAIN
Perhaps the world has finally gotten to see that Miami is a real place. Not some playground for the rich and temporarily famous, but a city with standards and an image to maintain. And the Jersey Shore folks, well, they just weren’t up to that image. It’s pretty sad that in a town where a club will bend over backwards to get a table for the weekend weatherman on the local CW affiliate, a cast of supposed reality “stars†can’t even get in the front door. It kinda tells you something, doesn’t it?
MTV, you took yourself a little too seriously on this one. What, you thought just because you could show up with some cameras and the MTV name that a high-end club was gonna let in the dregs of society? Think again. This is Miami, guys, and we have egos to maintain. Everyone here thinks they’re better than everyone else, so why on Earth would we let in a bunch of trash just because you’ve decided to make them famous?
TRASH IS STILL TRASH, CAMERAS OR NOT
Jersey Shore, I think, was popular for much the same reason that Springer and Maury are popular. People like to watch people who are way below them just as much as they like to watch people above them. What MTV miscalculated was that viewers were not impressed by the cast, but rather felt superior to them. So when MTV brought the show to our American Riviera, they figured we’d bend over backwards to accommodate these “celebrities.†They, of course, did not realize what they did was tantamount to inviting a bus full of Maury guests to stay at The Clevelander for the spring. And we typically don’t do that until Memorial Day.
I’d say good riddance to have the Jersey Shore cast out of Miami. But really, I don’t think anyone cares. Save for the few people in Miami who are still impressed by celebrities, there really wasn’t much of a buzz around having them here. Not like The Hogans or The Kardashians. I know exactly two people who even spotted the cast, and neither made much of a deal about it. My guess is the second season is a bomb, and we’ll all have forgotten about this collection of human refuse by this time next year. Until The Situation gets off the roids, balloons up, and shows up on Celebrity Biggest Loser.

Is this a rant… or an professional written article?
” Gotta go back to a place desperate for any kind of media attention, because lord knows we get enough.”
...Who would begin any journalistic approach with the a non-existent word like “gotta”..???
Did a fifth grader type this? Anyhow, just like MTV ‘s Jersey Shore, this idiot contributes nothing to society, nothing to Miami, and nothing to America.
