The Show With Vinny: Lil Wayne’s Episode Video

 by on

Vinny Guadagnino may be one of the biggest breakout stars of Jersey Shore. MTV and Vinny had a genius idea: Do a talk show that doesn’t feel like a damn talk show and film it all in Vinny’s family home. Lil Wayne appears and he’s the reason why I’ll be tuning in. The series premiere is tonight on MTV. Weezy is a fun guest, natch, and it’s clear that Vinny’s show may feel like a mini-documentary in some ways because there’s no huge stage production, cue cards and teleprompters. I’m really feeling this “real” approach to Q&A’s. Of course this has been done before, but not many hosts and networks take viewers inside the homes of their hosts and film an entire series there. I hope The Show With Vinny is good so it can be picked up for more seasons.

Vinny Guadagnino’s New Talk Show is “The Show With Vinny”

 by on

This may be the last season of Jersey Shore but we're far from seeing the last of the housemates just yet. Vinny Guadagnino has scored his very own talk show!

Vinny-guadagnino-1

Pauly D was the first to get a spin-off, then Snooki & JWoww' came in second. Now it's anyone but Mike Sorrentino's turn, so Vinny's next to score his own show.

MTV writes that Vinny D "will host a slew of celebrities inside his family's humble digs, where VIPs such as Vin's mom, Paula, and his oddball Uncle Nino can regularly be seen.

"Guests will be treated to some snacks (maybe even Sunday dinner, if they're lucky) while being chatted up by the best-selling author about a number of off-the-cuff topics."

MTV believes that the show is a "genre-busting take on the interview format." Okay. I just don't think many A-listers are gonna wanna sit down with a Jersey Shore star for interviews when they have Ellen DeGeneres, Jimmy Fallon, Kathy Griffin and Chelsea Handler to have fun with, but best of luck to Vinny!

Jersey Shore Season 6 Premiere Ratings: Lowest Since 1st Season

 by on

The season 6 premiere of Jersey Shore, which aired last Thursday, was all about Deena Cortese’s weight loss, Snooki and Jionni LaValle pretending that they’re aren’t doomed, and Mike Sorrentino staying away from alcohol.

 
Jersey-shore-season-6
 
Chris Buckner, Deena’s boyfriend, also appeared and the entire episode was a snoozefest.
 
The first 30 minutes were spent showing the roommates driving to the Shore house where Lorenzo Dominic LaValle‘s mom decides that she needs to move out of the house. The boring premiere was the best editors could come up with. MTV may have pulled the plug a season too late.
 
Still, season 6 was the top rated show on cable television!
  • 4.69 million viewers tuned into the 10p.m.season 6 premiere, the show lost half a million viewers by the second hour.
  • 7.6 million tuned into the season 5 premiere
  • 8.78 million watched the season 4 premiere
  • 8.45 million tuned into season 3
  • 5.25 million checked out the season 2 premiere

Expect ratings to plummet as season 6 is guaranteed to suck.

Jersey Shore Season 6 is the Final Season, MTV Confirms

 by on

MTV has finally pulled the plug on a popular series that used to be fresh to def but has become dated. Today the cable network announced that the upcoming sixth season of Jersey Shore will be its last.

Jersey-shore-canceled

There were rumors that the show would end seasons ago. Season 6 wrapped up filming last month and will premiere on Oct. 4.

It's time! We haven't wanted to fist pump as much with the Jersey Shore millionaires for a while. The cast has grown up and the fights, make-ups and breakups are no longer entertaining. Hopefully editors will do their best to make sure that season 6 is much better than last season.

You know the entire cast thought they were going to parlay the show into legit careers in the entertainment industry. We look forward to watching you all on some has been Vh1 programs in the future as you cry into half empty cups of Ron Ron Juice.

Melanie Iglesias: Vinny Guadagnino’s New Girlfriend

 by on

Guy Code star Melanie Iglesias has a gay boyfriend with a big dick. Fair trade off? Vinny Guadagnino and Pauly D are the only single Jersey Shore stars. Even Mike Sorrentino finally made it official with his former booty call, Paula Pickard.

Earlier this month Vinny Tweeted that he was "wining and dining" Melanie, posting a picture of a bag of McDonalds on his Twitter. He also posted a photo of Melanie wearing his glasses.

Most recently, Vinny hosted an event in Poconos, Pennsylvania and he brought his family AND MELANIE along with him!

So they're like smushing in out of state hotels? This sounds serious!

Melanie was Maxim's Sexiest Girl of 2010 in its Hometown Hotties contest. She landed the January 2012 cover of the magazine and met Vinny on Guy Code.

Jersey Shore Season 6 Premieres Oct. 4

 by on

We actually do have a few reasons to celebrate the return of Jersey Shore. Mike Sorrentino is going to be pretending to be a recovering alcoholic, Snooki is a pregnant midget, expecting a baby with her fiance Jionni LaValle; Deena Cortese has a boyfriend, lost weight and got arrested, and the only single folks in the house are gay Vinny Guadagnino and his power bottom Pauly D.

Jersey-shore-season-6-premiere

We already know that a fight went down during the filming of Jersey Shore; and with most of the cast in a relationship, folks may also be fighting over the smush room.

Pregnant Snooki is bound to be pretty hilarious, and knowing that these millionaires have to "work" at a t-shirt store is enough of a reason to tune in. Every job has its disadvantages, but can you imagine having to wake up early in the morning to "work" at a t-shirt store when you're hungover and f*cking rich? That's torture, and it's the one reason viewers shouldn't be jealous of the wealthy cast.

Season 6 kicks off on Thursday October 4 at 10 p.m. on MTV.

Jersey Shore Reunion Show Recap: The Situation Storms Off, Ronnie and Sammi Broke Up

 by on

Lately, the off-camera lives of the Jersey Shore cast have been far more dramatic than anything that happens on the show, but because it mainly exists to squeeze every cent possible out of played-out ideas (Beavis & Butthead? Punk’d? Really?) MTV still rounded up the guidos to discuss the televisual Ambien that was season five. Host Amy Paffrath was apparently unaware that most people tuning into the reunion special actually watch Shore on a regular basis so she referred to season five as “the craziest yet.” Amy, the only crazy thing is that this show got picked up for a sixth season.

The Situation Angry Photo

Paffrath kicked off the clip fest by reminding us that the Shore kids “picked up right where they left off” in Seaside, which was a huge part of the problem. “It felt good to fall down and pee in bushes,” said Snooki, and then the guys talked about how much they missed their GTL sessions in Italy for the 5 millionth time. Then, (Finally!) things got interesting when The Situation and Snooki (or Cokey and Preggo, as I call them) were pulled aside to discuss their still-unresolved cheating scandal.

“If I was that horny, I would go in my room and masturbate,” says Snooks about the prospect of sex with The Sitch. Mike and Nicole engaged in their usual he said/she said routine, and the whole thing remained unsettled, eventually leading Ronnie to echo the sentiments of the audience by screaming, “Who the f*ck cares?!” Snooki actually offered an interesting defense by claiming that Mike likes to stir up drama but doesn’t want to be hated, so he chose to start sh!t with the roommate he thought was most likely to forgive. Good theory, but I still think she banged him.

Pauly D Smiling Photo

Clips of Mike’s drunken emotional outburst have an added poignancy now that he’s admitted to a substance abuse problem, but a montage of The Sitch’s douchiest season five moments made it really difficult to feel bad for the dude. “You’re worried about being the good guy or being the bad guy…Just be yourself,” Snooki said to him, unwittingly hitting on one of the major problems with Shore. At this point, everyone has settled into their respective roles (JWoww‘s the mom; Snooki’s the drunk; Pauly and Deena are comic relief) and as a result, it’s slowly become one of the most predictable shows on TV. And it looks like it’s not just the audience that’s fed up with it…

 

Tired of being attacked by all seven of his roommates, Mike stormed off set only to be coaxed into coming back by JWoww in a scene that seemed super fake, even by Jersey Shore standards. Mike came back, apologized, and actually made a decent attempt at making peace with his roommates, which could ruin the last source of drama left on the show. Sadly, after that the remainder of the season 5 reunion show was as much of a snooze-fest as season 5, itself.

There were the usual jokes about Pauly and Vinny’s weirdly close relationship, and an overlong rehash of the season’s lame pranks. Things looked like they might get interesting for a moment when JWoww came out to talk about her love life, but it turns out guidettes in relationships are just as boring as regular people in relationships. There was one surprise in the form of Ronnie and Sammi revealing that they’re no longer together, but even that was sorta lame, as it was apparently a mutual separation that they’ll probably quietly rekindle next time they’re under the same roof.

So that’s it. All the loose ends are wrapped up, the questions are answered, and we hopefully won’t have to hear anymore about Snooki’s urinary tract infection. Here’s hoping for a return to form in season six.

Jersey Shore Recap: Camping Guidos and Epic Food Fights

 by on

I never thought I’d say this, but thank God Snooki is pregnant. If that midget liquor sponge hadn’t gotten knocked up, there would be literally nothing interesting going on with the cast of Jersey Shore, and I say this with one episode left in the season – a time when the drama and shenanigans are usually at their peak. The only compelling storyline since the cast returned from Italy -  Mike’s douche-tastic attempt to ruin Snooki’s relationship – looked like it was gonna come to a head at the beginning of last night’s episode, but even that fizzled out quickly.

Snooki and The Situation Food Fight Photo

The Situation confessed (a little too eagerly) to Jionni that he banged Nicole while she and Jionni were dating. Jionni responded by…shaking his hand and thanking him for his honesty?! What kind of guido is this dude?! Where’s the hot-tempered jealousy?! Jionni then climbs into bed with Snooki and reveals that he doesn’t believe Mike’s story, which makes him even more of a pussy for smiling in the face of the guy who he thinks is slandering his girlfriend for no reason. Fortunately, Snooki still has some balls and she responds to Mike’s rampant dickishness like only she could – by throwing pickles at the dude.

“I think Jionni took the news so well because he knows Snooki’s hooking up. He’s doing the same thing,” Pauly D theorized, ignoring the fact that Jionni is an obvious closet case. Snooki, of course, has a different take on the situation. “Jionni and I are getting married, I feel, when he proposes,” says Snooks. “I don’t when that is, but he better do it, like, within the future.” Sounds like a girl with a plan…and possibly a serious learning disorder.

The Situation Camping Photo

Because the producers are well aware of how boring this season has been, Snooki then proposes a camping trip like she’s reading from a cue card and then there’s a food fight, for some reason. Fortunately, what starts with a little innocent hot dog flinging turns into a serious condiment war between Snooki and The Sitch…because that’s how grown-ups settle disputes. Did I mention they were sober at the time? And don’t forget these two are about to head off into the woods together. What could go wrong?

 

None of the roommates have ever been in the woods before, but Snooki sums up the venture as “marshmallows, ghost stories and drinking.” Sounds like she has a pretty good understanding of camping to me. There’s some more “drama” between Deena and that Joey dude who openly treats her like sh!t, Vinny bangs a “thick chick” because “hot girls are boring” apparently, and then it’s finally time to see guidos attempt to pitch a tent.

Pauly and Vinny opt out of the trip so that they can execute the most labor-intensive prank in history by moving all of the furniture in the house outside. I got tired just watching them; seems like the joke is really on Paul and Vin with this one. But even if they spent the weekend engaging in back-breaking labor, the gayest guidos made the right choice by staying home. Not only were they spared near death as a result of Mike’s pyromania (or, as Deena explained it, “He’s like one of those people who loves fire…a hermaphrodite”), but they also didn’t have to witness The Sitch’s weird wilderness-induced paranoia.

After the girls share their feelings and freak out over spiders (in fairness, f*ckers were huge) everyone decides to pull the plug on camping and return to the comforts of home. Little do they know, their home is now on a damn patio. Unfortunately, we’ll have to wait until next week’s season finale to see their full reactions.
