An Italian-American group is pushing MTV to cancel their new series Jersey Shore. I haven’t received a screener yet, and believe me I’ve been asking for it…but I can totally see it being offensive to Jersey residents that aren’t stereotypical Jersey douchebags.

Actually, let me rephrase that…I can’t see the show itself being offensive rather the people on the show. I kind of love that a group of young Guidos and Guidettes have branded ALL of Jersey. Hopefully I’ll get a screener so I can report back to you guys before it airs.

I doubt MTV will cancel the series…I think this just could be the trashy hit they’ve been waiting for.

Watch the trailer after the jump…

    Let’s face facts. Reality TV would be nowhere without people from New Jersey. Name one reality show that doesn’t have at least one guy or gal from Joisey. Usually the resident tool, douchebag or dork, of course. If it weren’t for New Jersey and its never-ending supply of the functionally challenged, reality tv would have faded out 10 years ago.

    So it’s about time they (eh-hem, we) got their own show.

    I know! You know what’s insane? Jersey Shore is just the first to air. TruTV is going to do Guido Beach. Style is doing Jerseylicious. By the end of next year we’ll have a Jersey hangover.

    Wouldn’t it be cool if all the douchebags went on strike?

    They’d have to shut down reality tv.

    I can just picture the picket lines….

    When did guido go from being a pejorative for Italian Americans along the lines of wop or dago to a word that is perfectly acceptable to use in a tv commercial?

    I don’t know if anyone watches, but MTV’s “True Life” did a segment called “I have a summer share at the Jersey Shore” or something to that effect. I’m surprised MTV hasn’t already tapped Jersey for a reality show considering all the douchbag’s that was featured on “True Life”.

    Damn you MTV….I guess I will have to watch at least one episode of this train wreck.

    Actually as soon as I saw the girl get in the tanning bed in the trailer (they live at the beach and she’s using a tanning bed?) I knew I was going to watch this show. Actually between this and a new season of Bad Girls’ Club this could be the most awesome month for reality TV in a long, long time. You know, in a have to shower afterwards kind of way
