Poll: Jersey Shore... Why?

[Colour Scientist]

There's no "I watch Jersey Shore" option. I watch it because I enjoy it. After a difficult day I enjoy throwing myself on the couch and rotting my brain with the uselessness of the show.

It's a bit of fun, it doesn't pretend to be anything it's not. It's shameless, idiotic television and I love it. Not everything has to have some deep intellectual meaning.

 

[Aphex Demon]

Yeah it really is just light entertainment. I dont understand why people take it so seriously? If you enjoy it, watch it! If not dont bother, simples!

They're famous for being completley stupid, fake, arrogant and more. Loada BS, gotta hang on the decent stuff before its all gone.

It is has a high educational factor. You can see human life slowly devolving in front of your very eyes.

This. Also, shameful though it may be to watch it, there must be some degree of pride in knowing that you're not the kind of person who ends up on Jersey Shore.

That said, I have never seen it.

I saw it for about five minutes, perhaps even less. I could have done so much with my life in those five minutes... so much more. I could have poured syrup in my eyes, I could have pretended to stare at a non-existant poster of a dictionary, I could even have counted my fingers. But now those precious five minutes are lost to me, forever.

The same reason why talkshows are such a hit. Easy and cheap for the channels and a nice thing for the audience to see that they are better than at least some people in the world.

Snookie wants smoosh smoosh!

But in all seriousness the show is just amazingly bad and I hate to say it but I would rather watch big brother then that sack of crap.

 

[ZombieGenesis]

The only people who watch the show are the kind of people who are IN the show.

 

[WingedIncubus]

Because it's fun, and obviously scripted. You don't think this is real, do you?

Seeing Vinnie, last season, declare his love to a Freak he had just met at the nightclub, getting her to "agree" to a date on the phone, go get all dressed-up and neat, only to be flaked and call her a dozen times like an awe-strucked chump was the funniest thing I've watched in a while.
