Here’s the situation:
I have not owned a television set in over six years, and because of that, reality television has remained somewhat of a mystery to me. It’s not something I’m proud of. In fact, I often feel left out of conversations with people gossiping about who’s kicking who’s ass on American Idol. I have always wished I could jump on the band wagon of these iconic shows, but to my dismay, it just never clicked.
Up until now.
Last perpetually rainy Sunday, I sat down at a friend’s place and serendipitously the television was set to MTV. Behold my eyes to the splendor and wonder that is The Jersey Shore.
I stared transfixed at the television, unable to comprehend the images that were flashing before my eyes. The words that poured out of these young women’s mouths left me astonished. I think my jaw was successfully dropped the entire TWO HOURS I watched it.
What’s this? My pulse increasing? My palms getting sweaty, my heart aching for more?
I’M IN LOVE with my first reality show!!!!
Unfortunately because of MTV’s tight copy-writing laws, it’s hard to find clips that you can embed into blogs, but check out this little gem above and see the magic that is The Jersey Shore.
