TV shows about NJ giving it a bad rep

[JDid23]

not that NJ has always had the best reputation, and i am the first to say that it's by no means a great place to live (really high taxes) but all of these shows like the housewives of NJ (town is right next to me.... they choose the main area in that town where everyone is stuckup) and the show about the guidos at seaside which i watched 20 minutes of before turning it off.

NJ isn't the best state to live in by any means, but the way it's perceived on TV is making it seem 1000 times worse than it is

anyone else live in NJ or watch either of these shows?

meh. tv shows aren't supposed to be real, that would be boring. still based somewhat on truths (just like most stereotypes).

one of those dudes on mtv's jersey shore is from my city in rhode island and people look at hime saying 'fucking jersey guidos'. idiots, the lot of em.

My wife had that shit show on the other day.

After about 10 seconds I was about to punch her in the labia for being so stupid.
