If You Are Expecting Jersey Shore v2.0, Look Elsewhere, But...
mikecart11 September 2014
The show is good for what it is. One of the positives is that it is only around 25 minutes long without commercials. The other positive is that each episode has a different plot.

The Situation is back and trying to remake himself and his career after blowing up on the Jersey Shore before being one of the reasons why the show ended due to his drug/alcohol use.

This show has him with his close family and you see just how crazy everyone is in the family with the exception of his sister who supposedly runs the family "empire".

One of the highlights of the show is his brother Frank. It is hard to tell if the director has picked him to purposely act stupid in each show but he is the one that provides the comedy within the family.

Overall, the show is a solid 5 out of 10. This isn't as "revolutionary" as Jersey Shore and it seems to be stuck on a network (TVGN) that doesn't get many viewers to begin with. I actually didn't know the Situation was back on TV until browsing through channels one day. The show would have better success back on MTV or VH1. However, it is a start to the return of the Situation.

The reason why Jersey shore was so successful is you saw them grow from Young to older and they became a family. Now the spin-off of this one was completely wrong. And I truly hope they don't ever keep doing it. I'm happy for Mike for being a better person than he is. I do think his wife guessing everybody's business but nobody wants anybody to be in their business. But this show specifically was not good at all. And I think because he was battling so much that it shouldn't have happened. And I'm glad he's better for who he is now and alcohol and drug addiction is the hardest thing to overcome so I've been a fan of the show some seasons were better than others in Jersey shore but I could tell he was addicted to something because the way he acted and I'm glad he became a better person. He does a lot of good now I love the fact that he's being a role model for addicts and having their back and talking to them. I have mad respect for that. But this series was just not good timing.
