OK, so this is really happening. The cast of Jersey Shore are being treated like actual human beings with something to offer. Kind of. And fair enough! Personally, I think that we are losing the thread a little bit here. All of the joy that the cast of Jersey Shore offer comes from their oblivious, unselfconscious willingness to have themselves taped while interacting with each other in their “natural” habitat (namely a run down club off the boardwalk, usually called either Connextions or Paulie’s). There is a certain innocence and honesty to their running-at-the-mouth on the show, and their crushing frustration with being forced to work at a t-shirt store (“A t-shirt store?!! Fuhgettaboutatshirtstore!”). As you will see in this interview, now that they fancy themselves (and let’s be honest, “to fancy” is probably one of their favorite verbs, if they know what verbs are) celebrities, it’s all too pat. They become caricatures of themselves, and they were already caricatures. That being said, it’s still a pretty entertaining interview. It’s like watching Conan talk to enthusiastic child clowns working their way through cosmetology school.

Congratulations to Aaron for having his Jersey Shore Nickname Generator mentioned on the Tonight Show! Kahdooz, indeed. And good luck to Soccer on her dream of getting her own reality show. Of COURSE that is her dream. Snacks of Love? What a great name for a show. The best part about it is how it could be on literally any network, I’m sure.

  1. I think “tshirtsore” is an amazing and hilarious typo and I hope it never changes. Maybe that’s why the cast members have to spend so much time with their shirts off, because of their various “t shirt sores”. Ewww.

  2. From your Screenshot, Fred Armisen looks pretty buff.

  3. I want to see the entire cast in an AXE body spray commercial together.

  4. “With The Situation they are standing still”– “Revolution 9″ by the Beatles. The Beatles were prophets, man! I’m not sure what the prophecy means, but it can’t be good.

  5. Great, Now Megan Mullally’s hand has the Herp.

  6. I’m a little sad that the audience didn’t boo them like they did with Spencer and Heidi that one magical time. Also, I’ve never actually watched Jersey Shore before (I know, I’m disappointed in me too), so I haven’t gotten a good look at Snookie until now and holy fuck there is something wrong with her face.

  7. I can’t tell where the leather chairs end and they start.

  8. Verbs are what you put in your food, right?

  9. Who keeps authorizing Shore leave?

  10. I actually disagree that they are all unselfconscious. Most of them are, but I find ‘The Situation’ to be one of the most self conscious people on reality TV. Did you see last weeks episode? He just wandered around the house sheepishly asking people what they were doing, and when he felt the least bit uncomfortable, he got really defensive. Even when he asked Snooki what she was doing and she said ‘hot tub’, the way he said ‘with me?’ was like: please say yes, or I’m gonna feel like a big tool and cry myself to sleep. He seems uncomfortable in his Jersey Shore clothes (ed hardy, obvz).

    • I know right? He’s the one person in that house (read: dump) who I think is capable of genuine, tan human emotion that is appropriate for the moment. I actually find him really sociable and likeable.
      But then again, I would have loved to have brunch with Stalin, so I might not be the best judge of character.

  12. Fake… Seriously, I think they are actors now after seeing this.

    • I totally agree. Everyone knows that being smooth on camera, especially for dumb people, is HARD. Didn’t anyone see Rocky II?

    • you know, i thought that… but now i’m wondering f it’s just because they are the king and queen of bullshitting. if someone likes to talk about themselves that much, they become so skilled they can talk about themselves in ANY situation. including national tv!

    • I actually thought the opposite. Because the first 5 minutes was so painful to me when The Situation was explaining his nickname and told such a non story that I realized he actually has no brains and doesn’t know how stories work. Actors can’t be actors if they don’t know how stories work… right?

  13. Those were people? I thought Conan had brought out Wax Figure Tom Cruise and The Fonz.

  14. Did anyone else notice Andy using the situation to get closer to Megan Mulalley?

    • I noticed Megan Mullally unapologetically laughing at the guests and not with them, which I totally loved. She was having an awesome time, and I’m pretty sure she and Andy are probably in love now.

  15. Aww, why didn’t they shake the guys hand?

  16. Just waxing philosophical with/about/for/is/was The Situation.

  17. Snooki is definitely using a bumpit. Uck.

  18. this ain’t fuckin clay. this is fuckin real life motherfucker. look at this shit. i’m gonna bake me a big ass cookie, motherfucker. what you know about me? ha ha- my dick is long, bitch. i scratch my mind. i think about life and stuff sometimes but shit’s ROUGH.

  19. Snooki’s totally rocking a Bump-It.

  20. We should chip in and get Snickers a new hair clip.

  21. I could hula hoop with Snooki’s earrings.

  22. I just noticed that the put a block on the floor for Snooki. Because of her height.

  23. Are you people serious about “the situation”?? He is scary. I think one day he is gonna commit murder and then say something like “she made me do it bro.” That dumb girl flirted with him and then he thought he owned her like property. Scaryyyyy. Stupid insecure = murder .

    • Nah, I think He puts so much energy into loving himself that he wouldn’t have any leftover for committing murder. I think he’s going to concentrate all that narcissistic energy into having his own “The Situation” workout video/program. Only 3 easy payments of $9.95, and one easy, nonrefundable payment of Your Soul.

  24. Megan Mullally, you have just been over-guested by Jersey Shore people. I guess there’s no such thing as the 30 Rock Guest Star Bump.

  25. How long are we as a society going to deny the simple fact that Snooki is a midget? Not like a “Ha, look that chick is pretty short” midget either. She’s a straight up (down?) midget. Add in the ORANGE spray-on tan and her next reality show choice is pretty obvious: LITTLE CHOCLATIERS.

  26. The Situation already has his own reality show with Wolf Blitzer. On every night on CNN. How could he not remember that? Must have been all that juice.

  27. Jersey Shore makes me Image and video hosting by TinyPic

  28. I’ll admit it – I love The Situation. That’s all.

  29. I think it’s about time for me to stop participating in the Jersey Shore thing. I don’t have TV, so my only window into this world has been through Videogum, and it’s been great coverage, and Gabe, I’ma let you (gunshot), but the truth remains that I wouldn’t know these people exist otherwise, and they’re already taking up a depressing amount of my brainspace. Joke or no, we’re giving them this place in pop culture.

  30. I hope Woody Allen is watching this and decides to make Zelig Goes 2 The Jersey Shore.

  31. Rap, rap, rappity-rap!
    Rap, rap, rappity-rap!

  32. My son’s name comes out as “The Incident” in Jersy Shore Name Generator. My husband said, “Shouldn’t it be ‘The Accident’”? Then we all laughed and laughed and laughed.
