3/10
A lot more sad than the original
27 April 2022
First off, I gotta say how amazed I am at Mike's incredible metabolism, especially at his age. Consuming what seems like 10s of thousands of calories a day and remaining in a great shape is truly admirable.

That being said, and I never thought I would say this, I truly feel bad for the guy's predicament with the government. I am amazed at his transformation and truly wish him the best in maintaining his new lifestyle and in future endeavors.

I'm not surprised at Pauly Ds success considering his newfound fame caused his DJ career to blow up. I never really liked the guy, he seems like an emotional black hole that thrives on drama but somehow manages not to start any himself. Great taste in cars though. However, that incredibly disturbing sex doll he brought to represent Sam is just awful on every level. Something is not right with his head.

The most surprising thing for me was Ronnie. Judging by his house and his car, he somehow seems to have managed to maintain his wealth over the years. This is likely the only reason that the doctors have not yet declared him brain dead and pulled the plug. Oh Ron, no matter how much vodka flows down your gullet it will not magically wash away your baby mama. Sam, congratulations.

Vinny. The one person who for the first 2 seasons of the OG show seemed like the only normal one. Carbohydrates are essential to maintain healthy brain function, and what you see from his behavior is a clear example of that. He is obviously not mentally or physically well, and is now just a tragic figure.

Snooki and Deena. Always have been bimbos with hardly half a brain cell to share in between the two. Finally, the alcohol has won and the last cell has left the building. Snooki's plastic surgeon however belongs in jail. That upper lip would let her smoke a cigarette in the rain with her hands tied behind her back.

J (woww) has obviously grown up. From what I remember she was the only one who was never an airhead. Now just a mom and wife.

The MVP here is Sammi who is the only one who had the brains not to show up to this train wreck again.

While the OG show was great purely as a guilty pleasure to watch how ridiculous these people are, this is just a sad attempt to milk some more money out of a dead "franchise"

Disclosure: grew up and went to high school in central NJ around when the OG show first came out, been to seaside heights dozens of times which was only a 20 minute drive down, snuck into Karma at 17, etc. I am on season 1 episode 5 and can no longer watch. If I do, I'm afraid I will have Ronnie's mental capacity by the end of the show.
