In response to these wretched stereotypes, UNICO is demanding a lifetime supply of spray-on tan and hairspray as repayment for the insult.
I can’t wait to hear what law is being broken — should be a doozy. It should also be thrown out of court.
I dont get it. What law is being broken?
White guys are portrayed as idiots on TV all day long.
Fogetaboutit. Crazy stunads with guido gold and capicola sandwiches.
they need to shut up haven’t they heard it is alright to mock and make fun of white Christian straight males and females.
honestly they need to get wit the programme
ARF
I'm embarrassed for them.
They look way dumber than the dopes on the show.
When Ian Fleming wrote the original script for Thunderball, the plot was going to have an American air force officer steal a nuclear device for the mafia. His American friend told Ian that American audiences would recoil at a traitorous Airman and that italians would be offended at the mafia reference. Ian removed the reference to the airman but left the mafia in and said, if italians are offended over the mafia then maybe they should do something about it.
I just don’t understand how they got the lead singer of Depeche Mode to be in that show...lol
It seems well-intended, but as stupid as the show must be.
As an American of Italian ancestry, I don’t think MTV is exploiting The Jersey Shore gang because they are Italian.
I think they are being exploited because they are gullible idiots. That quality knows no ethnic boundary! :-)
Many of the puns I would like to make would get me banned.
It does seem greatly ironic that MTV can publish Black violent rap movies with impunity, but if MTV wants to let young, well, Irish-Americans in on the “fun” then they end up rousing Irish tempers. You’d think the black community would tire of this schtick some day.
Idiots,,, if you don’t like freedom of speech go back to italy. This is like indians thinking they magically get the right to dictate who says what about indians. If i want to name my team the “wild indians”,,that my right. Same with the italians and anybody else.
They are free to produce a show showing us how italian youths really act like little tee-totalling saints. Get busy boys,,,,
Since this is a "reality show", how is this a "portrayal"? They are just filming people who are being themeselves without a script...
Did they also sue the producers of The Sopranos? If not, why not?
I had NO idea that being fed-up was a reason to sue.
America, get some tougher skin, for God'sake.
This may explain the recent stories claiming the Jersey Shore clowns are not all Italian.
I have been to Seaside Heights, NJ a million times...They need to face facts...Guido’s and Guidettes are real. If this Italian club wants to start changing the stereotype they should start at their own dinner tables.
They need to get over it and stop being so thin-(olive)-skinned. There are more things to get worked up about then the way goumba’s are portrayed on TV.
I’m sure you saw this already... gee whiz.
