MTV: Mostly Twisted Viewing

MTV is the home-base of Jersey Shore. J-Shore is an ecstatic, wild TV show that people watch for entertainment purposes. MTV is honestly the only place where Jersey Shore would air. By tuning into MTV, you should know what you are in for. You should expect to see a TV show full of drama, ridiculous scenarios, and pretty good music that goes along with it. Look at the shows on MTV: 16 & Pregnant, the Pauly D Project, Jersey Shore, Punked, Pranked, I Just Want My Pants Back, Ridiculousness, etc. All of these shows are being focused in on the teenage generation. Jersey Shore fits right into MTV's line-up. Honestly, I feel like MTV (MUSIC TELEVISION) should stick to music videos and other music related news. The TV station has obviously strayed away from this pure concept in hopes to engage a more TV-hooked audience. Jersey Shore is not in fault at all here. Like I stated in a previous post, it is simply used for entertainment. The crazier the show gets, the more people tune in, which is obviously what MTV and every other TV station strives for. MTV has a brand that they are looking to take to the next level through the shows they are funneling out to their customers. MTV may have the wrong message at times, but these "wrong messages" are fueling their ever-growing business. When you tune into MTV, you know what you are going to get, so do not be surprised in the least when Snooki kisses Deena the whole night at a club.
