Summary
"Jersey Shore" is a reality television series on MTV that follows eight housemates spending their summer on the New Jersey Shore. The show was filmed in August 2009 in a summer share in Seaside Heights but was also filmed in other towns such as Toms River and Neptune and Atlantic City, New Jersey. It follows the eight housemates in a "Real World"-type style while they live, work and party at the Jersey Shore. The show debuted amid large amounts of controversy regarding the use of the words 'Guido/Guidette', portrayals of Italian-American stereotypes and scrutiny from locals because the cast members are not residents from the area. The theme song featured in the opening credits is 'Get Crazy' by LMFAO.
On January 29, 2010, MTV announced that a second season of the series consisting of 12 episodes has been ordered, and will air in the Summer. MTV announced that the second season would follow all of the first season cast with the exception of Angelina as they 'escape the cold northeast and find themselves in a new destination'. It is not known where the second season will be shot, and if the show's name will change as a result of a move in location.
