Hey now!
Being from New Jersey, I hardly think flyover country has the exclusive on gawker type shows. “Jersey Shore”, “Housewives of New Jersey”, the crazy bakery guy. I pass by the “Jerseylicious” saloon at least 3 times a week! Though I’ve never seen the show, it’s done wonders for the strip mall it’s located in.
And all the recent Jersey infatuation started with a scripted show, “The Sopranos”.
Of course, our current Governor does what he can to keep the New Jersey mystique alive and well around the country!
I don’t have a problem with those shows per se because they don’t involve the exploitation of a 6 year old child, and “hicks”.
