Yes, another reality TV show I find myself getting more hooked on everytime I watch it. This show is so popular, I would imagine most people have seen it before, but for those of you who have not seen it, the show is about eight Italian - Americans otherwise known as 'Guido's and Guidette's ' living in a house for the summer. They do part-time work at a local t-shirt store and enjoy the party life of heading out and partying all the time.Jersey shore is entertaining with the 8 housemates constantly joking and pranking each other. The show is full of drama, particular for Sammi and Ronnie, who met on the show when it started and who became a couple. Their fights contribute to a huge part of the show as they have now split and the fighting and drama they bring to the show is intense. I find their constant fighting annoying, but will still tune in every week to see what happens next.
My favourites in the show have to be Snooki, Pauly D, Vinny and 'The Situation.' Pauly D is well known for his phrases 'Cabs are here' and 'It's T-shirt Time.' The lads on the show have a specific time where they put on their t-shirts just the second before they go out so they wont get dirty while sitting around waiting to head out partying. GTL is another popular phrase from the show, which is gym, tanning and laundry. This is something they have to do everyday.
To promote the second season of Jersey Shore, MTV actually used social media marketing by creating a Facebook game and an iPhone App. It was a cartoon game where all the eight housemates became cartoon characters. The social game was for their Facebook members where it gave players pickles and tanning lotion to throw at one another in one-on-one battles between the reality stars characters. The iPhone app then allowed users to use Snooki's face on photo's that were taking on their smart phones. This shows how popular social media marketing has become for many hit shows.
I have to get that app!Great idea!
ReplyDeleteI never knew there was an app like this, such a great idea for jersey shore addicts like myself. I think this week is the last episode of the series, can't wait to see what happens between Sam and Ronnie!
