The fame and glory isn't just for those pissah Jehsey Shoor rats no more!

As you no doubt know, much to your own nausea, the second season of “Jersey Shore” is currently filming down in Miami (at least we can take some pleasure in the fact that more than a few clubs and bars are not letting MTV in, however). Well MTV is now planning a spinoff-in-spirit, set in Boston and featuring people who “share a love for muscle cahs, hair products and little necks on the frickin half shell,” people who “don’t take shit from nobody - least of all each othah.”

Oh brothah.

Specifically, according to the casting call, MTV is looking for “quintessential and iconic Massachusetts types, from long-time dock workers to fisherman, beer guzzlers to chowder lovers, Fenway fanatics to the men and women in blue, cabbies to yachtsman, cheerleaders to Brookline babes,” and they’ll even “consider preps from Wellesley too if they got what it takes.”

More nonsense from the casting call: “Get ready to share your life on the show that will knock the sox off the Red Sox, blow canons from Lexington to Cornwall and make you wish you remembered where you pahked your frickin cah, ‘cause that clunker is in Jersey!”

What the fuck does that last bit even mean? Jesus Christ.

The show is slated to begin filming in July, because the only thing better than a Masshole is a “fackin humidity” sweaty Masshole. I’m hereby calling on our own TK to audition for this show in an attempt to infiltrate it and take it down from within. Who’s with me?

Oh, and MTV, someone’s got a message for ya:

Isn't that picture photo-shopped from a Feyenoord match?

I'm from Mass and the Jersey Shore spin-off is the worst thing that every happen here. Stop the stupid madness already. I'm far away from the people who ever watch MTV, but I know a bad show when I hear one. Boston, Mass isn't an exciting place. And it's from someone who live in Boston. I don't know what's the attraction about Jersey Shore, It's a bad show and I can't believe that people actually like it, let alone enjoyed it. The show is about stupid people acting stupidly. Like I said before, stop the stupid madness.

They're definitely going to use Dropkick Murphys songs, aren't they?

.....

Feck.

Not only do I live in Boston, but I also work for MTV. This precludes me from auditioning sadly.

Oh man if only this format could be exported to Britain.

The sheer potential for carnage with something like this set in Glasgow or Newcastle or Cardiff or Leeds boggles the mind.

I saw some clips of Jersey Shore when a curious co-worker started watching episodes at work. She was morbidly fascinated, but I couldn't watch more than the first minute. I can not believe that show is popular. How can anyone stand it? Their voices alone are irritating enough to make you change channels.

It was funnier when it happened to the other guy...

As soon as they said they were taking it to Boston, my laughter started to fade and I prayed I wouldn't see anyone I knew on that show.

At least the accents will be better!

Can CT from the Real World apply? Please? It will glorious and arrest-filled.

The only thing in this news nugget that piqued my interest was: more than a few [Miami] clubs and bars are not letting MTV in...

I believe this may be a watershed moment in the reality-TV phenomenon--the beginning of the end.

Try to imagine a bar or nightclub presented with the opportunity to have a television show on its premises, and refusing. Refusing the cash, refusing the publicity, refusing the crowd of customers the event would be bound to bring through their doors.

Yeah. That's how repulsive this TV show and its fans are.

I mean, wow.

The sound you just heard was everyone in the marketing department at Axe Body Spray simultaneously orgasming.

Fucking italics messed up. This day has been an utter failure.

I'm from New Jersey (near the shore) and everyone I know hates Jersey Shore because no one who lives there is actually like that. The show is representative of Bennys (people who are not from the area, but vacation during the summer months) instead of natives.

However, I would watch THE HELL out a show about people from Southie.

It's Tawmy from Quinzee come to life. See this link if you fail to notice the reference.

AHMIGAWD! I can't wait!!!

@Mad Claw
Boston isn't an exciting place? The fak you talkin' about? I agree that we might be a permanent second fiddle to NYC for art, education and culture, but if you are telling me that we lack the kind of out-sized douchbaggery that fuels reality TV then you are fackin' retahded.

One would hope so. Would be the only good thing about it.

AAAAAAUUUUUUGGGGGHHHHHH!

Make it stop! Make it stop!

Seriously, they're looking for long time dockworkers, cabbies, fishermen and men/women in blue? If that were true, it might not be half-bad. But I can't see that on MTV. I'm sure whoever they choose will be interchangeable with Jersey Shore's characters. The most we can hope for is that they will have legitimate Boston accents, because nothing is worse to Boston ears than a fake one.

A jet fighter just flew overhead! Happy Patriots/Marathon Day!

Oh the horror! i thought having someone from my hometown (near Boston) on the Real World Austin was bad enough.

This is going to get ugly. Fake accents, contrived situations...and the actuality that people from here really are asses!

will people watch? yeah. Despite the horror, there seems to be a demand out there for regional ridiculousness. Look no further than 'Jerseylicious'(which makes Jersey Shore look refined in comparison)... I rest my case. Where next, MTV?

Posted by: VinKong at April 20, 2010 12:49 PM

You know this concept has jumped the shark once Boston (Scranton, Pa. with clams) gets involved. Look for this show to flop and Boston to yet again be tagged as a "behind the times/curve" with regard to pop culture.
