I watched like 15 minutes of it last year when my friends turned it on during a trip in Vermont and I had to leave the room. I just can't watch stupidity like that.

But I admit that I did laugh at the South Park parody of it.

It doesn't appeal to me but "reality" TV doesn't appeal to me in general. People that hype this show up need to step their TV show game up

I firmly believe the 1st season was a touchstone in (reality) television history (probably for many wrong reasons but still). Viewership increased almost 400% from the premiere to the season 1 finale. We watched an episode in my Film class last year when we were discussing Baudrillard! Constructions and perpetuations of a false reality. 

QFT.
People that claim they watch it b/c its purely entertaining are not conscious of the fact that this type of show is influencing them on some level. I mean regardless of how u perceive the "lifestyle" portrayed in this show, somewhere in the back of your head it could play a part in you social interactions, dating, behavior, mannerisms etc. Its predictive programming and conditioning in a subtle form.

I don't think it's conditioning actually. It's just what people want. These people on the show are normal as hell, just they have some mannerisms and a different lifestyle, one that wasn't predicated on luxury and pomp. It's just MTV created this reality show and people ate up how "non-high class" and ordinary the show and characters were. I don't buy into all that conditioning stuff. We choose to make things popular. There were a hundred shows that came and went after Jersey Shore.  Read that Slate article; I thought it was pretty good.
