No More Jersey Shore

I have a huge issue with the jersey shore. This is a show with no basis. All it is Italian people living in different locations. They are expected to drink, fight and be promiscuous.  Their daily motto is GTL, this stands for gym, tan, laundry. Not one of the cast members has a goal for the future, they are just partying their lives away.  This show is a worldwide phenomenon. With its fourth season currently airing the cast members are making large amounts of money and expanding their fame. Millions of people tune in Thursday nights to watch the idiocy. Each cast member is well known. They have Halloween costumes based of off them. They have pens that repeat dumb things they have said. They have t-shirts and everything else that contributes to their wealth. I think it is disgusting that our society appreciates this type of entertainment. We are making the scum of the earth wealthy. Why do we promote this type of behavior? Why do we find unintelligence and irresponsible behavior appealing? Snookie is the most famous from this show. She is notorious for saying stupid things, drinking excessively and having sex. What kind of role model is that? I think it is a huge problem that our society idolizes these people. Even if you do not idolize these people but you watch the show you are guilty. Our society needs to embrace a more sophisticated type of entertainment.  We have to recognize that that is not a way of life. We need women to respect themselves. We need men to be respectful of women.  We need to take glamour’s illusion of drinking alcohol away. This show stands for what we should not be. I say no more jersey shore.
