The show debuted amid controversy regarding its use of the terms `` Guido / Guidette '', its portrayal of Italian - Americans and allegations of perpetuating stereotypes, as well as scrutiny from locals of the cast who were not residents of the area. The show became a pop culture phenomenon, with classes and conferences at universities about the show, and journalists listing it as one of the most notable shows of the time. The Shore franchise spawned several international adaptations in other countries. Four of the Jersey Shore cast members received spin - off shows on MTV, with the most successful being Snooki & JWOWW. Most of the cast would go on to appear in other reality programs or receive their own shows on various networks. On August 12, 2017, it was announced that the cast ( with the exception of Ortiz - Magro, Cortese and Guadagnino ) would reunite for a one - off television special not produced by 495 Productions called Reunion Road Trip : Return to the Jersey Shore, which premiered on E ! on August 20, 2017.

Michael Sorrentino `` The Situation '' Staten Island, New York Italian American Sorrentino, an assistant manager of a fitness center in Staten Island, develops an attraction towards Giancola, which does not come into fruition when she becomes interested in fellow castmate Ortiz - Magro.

He also appeared on the British television show Celebrity Big Brother in August 2012. Production history VH1 producer Anthony Beltempo proposed the idea of a show focusing on the `` guido '' lifestyle for TV, in the form of a competition series. Executive producer SallyAnn Salsano, who previously worked on A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila, devised a new concept, inspired by her own summers in a Jersey summer shore house, and retained casting director Doron Ofir to find the cast. MTV Networks President Van Toffler felt that the series `` loud, young, bold '' style was better suited to MTV 's sensibilities than VH1, and MTV programming executive Tony DiSanto felt that `` ( After The Hills ), it was time to go for a more authentic approach, like a documentary. '' Van Toffler described the casting process by saying they looked for `` candor, honesty, boldness and a very combustible, chaotic mess. You could honestly say none of these people were traditionally beautiful. '' Paul `` DJ Pauly D '' DelVecchio and Mike `` The Situation '' Sorrentino during shooting in Florence, Italy in May 2011. The series follows the lives of eight housemates spending their summer in a summer share in Seaside Heights, New Jersey, known as The Jersey Shore House. Season 1 followed cast members Angelina Pivarnick, Jennifer Farley, Michael Sorrentino, Nicole Polizzi, Paul DelVecchio, Ronald Ortiz - Magro, Samantha Giancola, and Vincenzo Guadagnino at the Jersey Shore. Jersey Shore premiered on December 3, 2009, with back - to - back episodes, averaging 1.375 million viewers. Although the initial ratings were considered unimpressive to Salsano, they slowly grew in popularity, and was the subject of parody on Saturday Night Live after the third week, a turnaround that MTV executive Tony DiSanto calls `` the fastest 0 to 60 I 've ever seen on a show ''. Season 1 posted strong growth every week and ranked # 1 in its time period versus all cable competition among P12 -- 34 ( people 12 to 34 years old ) during the first quarter of 2010, with a season high 2.6 rating for the finale. The season 1 finale audience, 4.8 million, was more than triple that of the premiere, an increase of more than 3.4 million, and was MTV 's highest rated original series telecast in almost two years. Overall, the season 1 averaged 2.7 million viewers. In an article in Rolling Stone, it was mentioned that the house had 35 remote - controlled cameras in fixed locations, 12 hand - held ones, one IMX camera and six DV cameras. Nicole Polizzi said that : They have cameras everywhere, all the time... You 're always being watched. You kind of get a little paranoid, because you 're like, ' Who 's watching me ? '... It 's trippy. it messes with your head. But that 's why we go crazy. That 's why we fight with each other. That 's why we drink. We 're living in a house for two months with that shit. We ca n't have cellphones, TV, radio or internet... There 's no normalcy. It 's like a prison, with cameras. The only time we 're not on camera is when we 're in the shower, and that 's why we all take three - hour showers, just to get away from it all. After Season 1, the cast negotiated pay raises, though both they and DiSanto explained that it was not contentious, and was given undue weight by the press. Rather than wait until the next New Jersey summer for Season 2, the production moved to Miami. In January 2010, MTV announced that a second season consisting of 12 episodes had been ordered and would air that summer. It would follow all of the first - season cast as they avoided the cold northeast winter by relocating to the South Beach, Florida. In May 2010 the cast relocated back to the Jersey Shore for the rest of filming, but it was later determined that the production company had enough footage from the Miami shoot to fill the entire second season, and that the footage to be shot at the Jersey Shore would be used for a third season. The second season premiered on July 29, 2010, averaging 5.252 million viewers. Season 2 was the # 1 television series in the P12 - 34 demographic for the summer of 2010 across all TV and has also posted continued growth every week. On July 20, 2010, MTV announced that the cast would return for a third season, with the exception of Pivarnick. Season 3 returned to the original Jersey Shore summer setting, and replaced Angelina with Deena Nicole Cortese, a longtime friend of Polizzi. The season 's January 6, 2011 premiere was viewed by a record 8.45 million viewers, making it MTV 's most viewed series telecast ever. The second episode of the season once again set a series and MTV high at the time, with 8.56 million viewers, only to set another record with the airing of the fourth episode, which garnered 8.87 million viewers. On January 25, 2011, it was confirmed that the show had been renewed for a fourth season, to be filmed in Italy during the first half of 2011. The fourth season premiered August 4, 2011. MTV confirmed in June 2011 that the fifth season would return to Seaside Heights. Believed complications caused by Nicole Polizzi 's pregnancy, and several cast members ( including Polizzi, DelVecchio, and Farley ) receiving spin - offs sparked talk about the future of the series past the fifth season, however on March 19, 2012, MTV officially confirmed that the series would return for a sixth season, with all cast members returning. Filming for the sixth season took place in mid-2012, and featured Polizzi nearly eight months pregnant. MTV said in a statement, `` While things will definitely be a little different this time when they hit the boardwalk, their trademark hilarity and family dysfunction will remain the same ''.

Angelina Pivarnick appeared in the show NY Ink in which she got a tattoo that shows her time in Jersey Shore. Controversy and criticism Main article : Controversy and criticism of Jersey Shore University of Chicago and the University of Oklahoma are among the educational institutions that have had classes or conferences about the show. In 2010, the cast of Jersey Shore were named on Barbara Walters ' 10 Most Fascinating People list, and the series has since been exported to dozens of countries worldwide. In 2010, MTV received criticism from Italian American organizations for the way in which they marketed the show, as it liberally used the word Guido to describe the cast members. The term `` guido '' is generally regarded as an ethnic slur when referring to Italians and Italian Americans. One promotion stated that the show was to follow, `` eight of the hottest, tannest, craziest Guidos '', while yet another advertisement stated, `` ( the show ) exposes one of the tri-state area 's most misunderstood species... the GUIDO. Yes, they really do exist ! Our Guidos and Guidettes will move into the ultimate beach house rental and indulge in everything the Seaside Heights, New Jersey scene has to offer. '' Cast members Snooki and JWoww are not ethnically Italian. Snooki is Chilean, but was adopted as an infant by Italian American parents. Jwoww is of Irish and Spanish descent. Ronnie, Sammi, and Angelina are only of partial Italian descent : Ronnie is part Puerto Rican, Sammi is part Greek, and Angelina is part Polish. Prior to the series debut, UNICO National formally requested that MTV cancel the show. In a letter to the network, UNICO called the show a ``... direct, deliberate and disgraceful attack on Italian Americans... '' UNICO National President Andre DiMino said in a statement `` MTV has festooned the ' bordello - like ' house set with Italian flags and green, white and red maps of New Jersey while every other cutaway shot is of Italian signs and symbols. They are blatantly as well as subliminally bashing Italian - Americans with every technique possible... '' Around this time, other Italian - American organizations joined the fight, including the National Italian American Foundation, the Order Sons of Italy in America and the internet watch - dog ItalianAware. MTV responded to the controversy by issuing a press release which stated in part, `` the Italian - American cast takes pride in their ethnicity. We understand that this show is not intended for every audience and depicts just one aspect of youth culture. '' Since the calls for the show 's removal, several sponsors have requested that their ads not be aired during the show. These sponsors include Dell, Domino 's and American Family Insurance. Governor Christie and the series ' portrayal of New Jersey In a February 2010 interview, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie called the show `` negative for New Jersey '' because most of the cast members are not from the state. According to Christie, the program `` takes a bunch of New Yorkers and drops them at the Jersey Shore and tries to make America feel like this is the real New Jersey ''. Governor Christie took action against the series by trying to encourage people to experience the real Jersey Shore for themselves rather than watch it through MTV : `` I can tell people : They want to know what New Jersey really is ? I welcome them to come to New Jersey any time. '' A Fairleigh Dickinson University PublicMind poll released in February 2010 showed that 59 % of Americans who had seen the show had a favorable view of New Jersey compared to only 44 % of those that had not seen the show. The FDU poll repeated the national telephone survey in 2011 and showed similar results. Consequently, poll director Peter Woolley concluded that `` These measures... suggest the show is n't hurting the nation 's view of the state. In fact, it may be promoting one of the state 's best features -- not Snooki, but the shore itself. '' Nonetheless, in September 2011, Governor Christie vetoed a $420,000 tax incentive awarded to the show by the New Jersey Economic Development Authority, stating : `` As chief executive, I am duty - bound to ensure that taxpayers are not footing a $420,000 bill for a project which does nothing more than perpetuate misconceptions about the state and its citizens.
