Stopped watching it midway through this season.  There never was a point but it's just not new anymore. They are stupid; I get it. 

I firmly believe the 1st season was a touchstone in (reality) television history (probably for many wrong reasons but still). Viewership increased almost 400% from the premiere to the season 1 finale. We watched an episode in my Film class last year when we were discussing Baudrillard! Constructions and perpetuations of a false reality. 

A great article on the show (and an MTV counterpart): http://www.slate.com/id/2262065/

"American television has long stood in for American education. TV "shows" us how to live, how to survive in an office and a family, how to train our dogs and cook our food. How to successfully date, marry, and disarm nuclear devices. Cultural Gospel holds that Jersey Shore became a hit as a triumph of vulgarity. This is wrong. Jersey Shore's success has rather to do with the offering of lessons in remedial humanity and is best understood in juxtaposition to the MTV franchise it eclipsed."

I need to slap myself for ever watching that show. Smh. That show should be on comedy central not MTV.
