* HilariousInHindsight: [[http://www.cracked.com/blog/jersey-shore-is-the-worst-thing-to-happen-to-the-east-coast-since-911/ A 2009 review of the series]] (jokingly) called it "the worst thing to happen in the East-Coast since 9/11". The very next year, ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' did [[Recap/SouthParkS14E9ItsAJerseyThing an episode]] in which the cast of Jersey Shore invades South Park and the townspeople are [[GodzillaThreshold so desperate to get rid of them that they]] recruit ''[[UsefulNotes/OsamaBinLaden Bin Laden]]'' for help, cumulating in a scene where Al Qaeda flies hijacked planes into the Jersey Shore people as the townspeople cheer.

* EthnicScrappy: ''Oh'', where do we even start from here? Everyone with their negative stereotypes, from the [[RambunctiousItalian Italians]] to the Cubans. Furthermore, it had [[CyclicTrope restarted]] the [[PetPeeveTrope equally]] EthnicScrappy-worthy trope, {{Joisey}}.

Too Bleek Stopped Caring entry does not at all describe how the show's negative tone specifically turns away viewers. UI is now Flame Bait, and the entry will be zapped because it does not contain evidence that it is more than one person's thinking.


* TooBleakStoppedCaring: The [[EthnicScrappy Ethnic Scrappies]] of this made this show unwatchable for ''everyone'' outside of MTV's target audience or ignorant people who don't know any better.
* UnfortunateImplications: Portraying all Italian-Americans as drunken, steroid-fueled party kids and [[HardDrinkingPartyGirl Hard-Drinking Party Kids]]... gee, who could possibly object to that? In addition to several Italian-American groups, Creator/KevinSmith (a New Jersey native) [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Hv9B3mNlU0 commented]] that it's an Italian equivalent to the early 20th-century practice of 'cooning', where black entertainers played to the [[UncleTomfoolery "Uncle Tom" stereotype]].
