"The Situation" Dismal for 'Jersey Shore' as Dell Pulls Ads

Terrence,

I have bad news. The show is kind of amazing. It's everything you want, in one highly edited, totally processed, easily digestible form. It's like a diner grilled cheese.

I'm sorry to tell you this.

Your co-worker,

lol these people are not Italians. If they went to Italy they would be laughed out of the country. they are wannabes

Leila,

I'm just bitter over the continued bad rep Staten Island gets thanks to people like this, and MTV.

And this more like the TV version of frozen deep dish pizza. It seems like a good idea at the time, but once it's over you still feel empty and leaves a bad taste in your mouth.

I LOVE this show. If you don't like it, change the channel! No one is forcing you to watch it and these people are free to show their lives on this reality show. Get over it already!

Anyone can see, this ad is horribly phtoshopped anyways. She's not even that small!

Way to go! The author of this article has just contributed their bit in keeping people actively involved in this crap television. Kudos for doing it under the ruise that you're offended by its content! Pretty sneaky but not all that effective.
I have watched this show because of all the publicity it has gotten over the past month and as an Italian American..I find NOTHING offensive about it. Those who find it offensive are probably seeing some truths about themselves in the characters on TV. There are a bunch of Irish Americans that behave the same exact way but lack a vowel on the end of their last names. People need to take it for what it is...mindless entertainment. Nothing more. Nothing less. If you were expecting coming away from watching this with a higher understanding of quantum physics then you were sorely disappointed. If you expected to walk away shaking your head and giggling at the absurdity...then it delivered. Nobody I know behaves this way but it is defintely an accurate depiction of a select few that summer at the shore. It's the same thing in The Hamptons. Big deal...why would this offend anyone when there is some element of truth? Grow up people...quit being so politically correct and denying that people like the Jersey Shore people exist. They do and always will.

When will people wise up and realize that shows like this are put on (and A put on) to cause a stir. It's marketing pure and simple. The sad part is that networks such as MTV think they have to resort to this kind of crap marketing because they can't come up with anything better to watch. It's great advertisers pull out of this stuff. They never should have been there in the first place. The trash miscreants that watch it and are in to it are not the market they want anyway. The scary part of it is that the people who give these shows any sort of attention can vote.

The very reason why abortions should be legal. I wish I could time travel and take them and their parents out of the gene pool.

mtv used to be entertaing 20 yrs ago, but now its just video vomit. i wish my cable provider would remove it so i dont even have to see it as i surf right by. vh1 is getting worse also, its a shame what the nimrods in charge have done to a perfectly good concept......music on tv, not doctored up crap

I never heard of this show. But I laughed so hard through this clip, I was crying!

Its not so much the insulting of Italian Americans that we get because of a--holes like these guido's that bothers us as it is that our hometown is getting a bad rap because of them. Seaside is trying really hard to become the town that it was in the 50's. It wants to be a safe place for families to spend their vacation there. People like these New Yawkers are just not representives of the visitors that come to the Jersey Shore. Also all of the shore area is not on the oceanside and people never get to visit the beautiful parts of Ocean County. At the risk of sounding like a charter member of the Chamber of Commerce, I can tell you that New Jersey consists of several counties that beautiful and more than the turnpike and parkway. Still these people on this show are rude, crude and ugly phonies. Stay in New Yawk and leave your trash and trashy ways up there. Go home Bennies, we may have depended on your Ben Franklin bills years ago, but now there are plenty of year round residents here and we love our Jersey Shore. Go back and pretend you were here. Bye Bye

NO advertisement income, NO money for show. lets see how good the show is then.

I agree this is terrible photoshop, snooki isnt that thin

But on another note I actually like the show, they donet give Italians a bad name in my opinion, they do not represent every Italian out there, they are just wacky individuals.

Now if all advertisers would stop advertising on all reality shows, TV execs would stop televising that garbage.

I will never watch the show but the clip was a hoot. Absolutely no one can be that daft and still breathe on their own so it's an obvious put on.

I don't know what you guys are complaining about, its not the italians that are dumb, its the whole of the USA......

Like EVERYTHING DELL MAKES this show is garbage

Thankfully we now have Palladia (HD Music Channel...thiink it's still owned by MTV though). Palladia actually plays music video's of all kinds (rock/R&b/country) and is extremely entertaining. The regular MTV is nothing but cheap reality shows, non of which are worth watching. And yes, VH1 is heading in the same direction as MTV. So change the channel!

Yeah, the digital altering of this pic makes her look tall and thin, not short and plump.
