The Jersey Shore on MTV

The show "The Jersey Shore" on MTV is a reality show of Guido's and Guidettes sharing a house together in Seaside Heights, NJ. One guy refers to himself as "The Situation". Basically he's built like a brick shithouse and he knows it. He never goes anywhere without his hairgel, and it takes him about 25 minutes to do his hair every night. All the characters on this show basically epitomize Italian Americans. They're all cocky and are those Forgetaboutit type of Italians. Apparently the show has been getting some negative press because of the way they portray Italian Americans. Apparently those who are upset about the show are currently contacting advertisers and are asking them to pull out of MTV.
Cmon people. I'm Italian myself. My grandparents came over here on a boat from Napoli. I think the show is a goof, and believe it or not there's all types of people out there. Yes, there's actually people who talk like they're off the streets of Flatbush Avenue. Big fing deal. Donesn't anybody have anything else to do than to become upset because of an assinine (sp) TV show? Cmon The Situation, Snookums, The Princess of Poukeepsie, and Paulie need to be seen for the goofs they are. I can't wait to see The Princess of Poukeepsie get punched in the mouth by some guy later this season. Watch the one episode and you'll be hooked too.
I don't think the show will make it too long because of the bad press. As soon as advertisers start pulling out so does MTV.

I am Tarbash a Satellite Radio Listener

Why is it that people compare popular radio shows to Howard Stern? According to Howard, he is the "King of All Media", named after Michael Jacksons self proclaimed title of "King of Pop". Sure Howard was the innovator of shock jock radio. When I listen to his show it seems Howie doesn't think anyone should have followed in his footsteps. He thinks other radio hosts are trying to be him. Personally I can't listen to that show anymore as a regular. Robin, Artie, Fred, and Gary all kiss Howies ass, and agree with everything he has to say. Other jocks on Howies stations like Bubba the Love Sponge, and Ferrel burnt bridges to be on Howies stations.
Why does everybody kiss his ass? Can't any other show be acceptable in Howards eyes? Well, in my eyes The Opie and Anthony Show is far superior to Howie.
Hey Howard: O&A are honest, and their listeners actually are a part of their show, and they don't get the respect they deserve. Let me ask the faithful Howard listeners, When was the last time that you had to stay in your car because you had to listen to a Howard bit? When was the last time you laughed at anything Howard said? That's Howard said people, not something Artie said. If you're like me, the last time I had a good laugh from Howards show was in 2004. I will give hime the credit of conducting a very compelling interview, but Howard stopped giving a crap years ago. Right now it's just a paycheck for him.
O&A are in it for us, the listener. So do yourself a favor, and listen to XM 202, or Sirius 197, and you'll be a lifetime listener.
