All great things must come to an end...even if you are a self-proclaimed 'guido.'
That's right reality show junkies, MTV has finally pulled the plug on their highly rated reality show 'Jersey Shore.' The sixth season, which just wrapped production and will hit airwaves on October 4th, will be the last.
The news comes as a bit of a surprise, but the decision is entirely understandable as the casts' contracts are up at the end of this season, and their pay increases have put a bit of a damper on their high ratings. Throw in a Snooki birth and the show seems to have creatively run its course.
MTV says that the sixth season will not read like a conclusion to the series as the cast was informed that this could be the final season prior to filming, but weren't given confirmation to the fact until just this morning.
A retrospective special entitled "Gym, Tan, Look Back" will air before the VMA Awards on September 6th, and the cast is currently scheduled to walk the carpet during the event's pre-show.
'Jersey Shore' is survived by its two spin-off series, 'The Pauly D Project' and 'Snooki & JWOWWW.' There is some talk about a Snooki wedding special, but no confirmation on that can be made at this time.
