Jersey Shore is in no way a good show. It's crass and crude and serves no societal function whatsoever, but gol-ly does it have that It factor that makes us watch week in and week out. There's just something about the way Jersey Shore feels real(ish)—like we're just watching these kids do what they do, even if it makes us cringe. Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi and Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino have been the series' breakout stars, but we tune in to see the budding bromance between Vinny Guadagnino and Pauly D. (It. Is. Adorable.)
