Jersey Shore

Gym. Tanning. Laundry.

And just so much making out!

Deena Cortese just broke some exciting news for fans and followers:

Another precious meatball is on the way!

Are you ready to spend the holidays with the fam?

So asks MTV in the first promo for Jersey Shore; Family Vacation Season 4, which is set to return this fall with new episodes.

Americans were faced with a whole host of challenges in 2020, but surely, when future historians look back on this year, they'll unanimously conclude that we rose to the occasion.

Sure, we didn't cure Covid-19 or address the problem of police brutality in any meaningful way, but against all odds, we made another season of Jersey Shore happen!

Gym. Tanning. Laundry.

Total and complete isolation?

After Snooki announced her departure from Jersey Shore, Angelina Pivarnick began the push to replace her with Sammi Sweetheart.

Now, Sammi is talking about how she knows exactly where she belongs ... and that place just happens to be the Shore.

Jersey Shore: Family Vacation (yes, that's what MTV is still naming it somehow) is coming back for Season 4.

We know this for certaiin.

There was a time, not even all that long ago, when the Jersey Shore cast only cared about three things:

Doing laundry. Getting a tan. And going to the gym.

Back in December 2019, Snooki announced that she was retiring from Jersey Shore.

This was not the usual case of a reality star stepping away from a long-running show -- instead, it was more akin to Beyonce "retiring" from Destiny's Child.

Even following a season that featured a prison release, an arrest for domestic violence and the most controversial wedding reception speech in reality TV history, many thought this was it for Jersey Shore.

Jersey Shore: Family Vacation (yes, that's technically its name, three years into the revival) Season 3 is in the books.

It came to an on Thursday night, not only with a bang, but with a total and complete breakdown!

It finally happened, Jersey Shore: Family Vacation viewers.

Following weeks and weeks of hype, the MTV realitiy series at last aired the speech Deena, Snooki and Jenni gave at Angelina's wedding reception.

Well, another episode of Jersey Shore has come and gone, and we still haven't seen the infamous Angelina wedding roast.

(Remember when this show was famous for how much drama and insanity it would to cram into a single episode? Now it's got so much filler it should be called Jersey More.)

We're inching ever closer to it, Jersey Shore: Family Vacation viewers.

As you very likely know by now, Angelina had a total meltdown at her wedding reception in November because her co-stars/bridesmaids delivered an X-rated, insult-filled toast.

Weddings are a time for love, joy and romance.

Unless you get married in front of the Jersey Shore: Family Vacation cameras, that is. 

Ronnie Ortiz-Magro received a double dose of very good news this week.

First, as previously reported, the troubled Jersey Shore cast member reached a plea deal several months after his arrest for domestic violence in which he will likely avoid jail time.

Last fall, Ronnie Ortiz-Magro was accused of threatening his baby mama, stealing his daughter from her arms and barricading himself and his child inside of a house.

In the ensuing months, the question on the minds of Jersey Shore fans everywhere has been this:

Will the saga of Zack Carpinello groping Angelina Pivarnick ever come to an end?

In case you're a bit confused as to why in the hell the Jersey Shore gang is still talking about that wild night in Vegas almost a year later, here's a short timeline of events:

Back in the summer of 2019 -- a different time in which people recklessly gathered in groups larger than 10 and stood closer to each other than 6 feet -- an event of unknowable significance transpired.

We're talking, of course, about the time that Zack Carpinello groped Angelina Pivarnick.

Back in October of 2019, Jersey Shore aired a scene so shocking that the stars of show themselves were taken aback.

Yes, we're talking about the scene in which Zack Carpinello groped Angelina Pivarnick while his girlfriend, Jenni Farley, was passed out at his feet.

A little over a year ago, Sammi Giancola became engaged to Christian Biscardi.

Like any good fiance, he just cannot stop gushing and swooning over her -- even over a simple selfie.

In its reboot seasons, Jersey Shore has occasionally tested the limits of viewers' patience with filler episodes in which next to nothing transpires.

But while we've lowered our expectations from the show's wilder days, we never thought we'd see the day when a meeting with a prenup lawyer is considered a storyline.
