Increasingly more television viewers indulge in tasteless television. MTV’s reality show "Jersey Shore" is a prime example of what Americans find entertaining. A record number of viewers tuned in each week just to watch characters like Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi and Michael "The Situation" Sorrentino go to the club every night and party. These personalities have easily risen to celebrity status and have been booked on various talk-shows. Even celebrity A-listers are declaring how they are big fans of "Jersey Shore." Such quick advancements for shows without substance only proves how easily viewers can become entranced by the ridiculous and trashy behavior of hormone-driven young adults who perpetually search for fun. Though they have become America’s latest obsession, they are hardly worth all the hype. Nothing fresh or valuable can be gained from such a program; even though millions are being swept into a "Jersey Shore" craze, it does not mean that viewers should be caught in a mindless undertow.
