«I BELIEVE IN TELEVISION. IT'S GOING TO TAKE OVER FROM THE MOVIES»

– Jersey Shore has what people want. What are the two big drivers of human drama throughout the history of entertainment? Romance and conflict. Well, guess what, Shakespere fans? That’s all Jersey Shore is! The show isn’t about solving crimes, healing patients, winning a competition any other form of “work” that populates most TV shows. Despite a few dull scenes in a T-shirt shop, Jersey Shore is about sex and fighting, distilling drama to its raw core. In each episode, the cast prepares for sex and fighting (ie: “gym-tan-laundry”), has sex and fight, and then — in true reality show fashion — endlessly discuss the sex and fighting that did (or did not) take place. Repeat cycle. In other words: It’s not that there’s something wrong with people for liking Jersey Shore, humans are wired to like Jersey Shore.
