bear in mind my information of the show is based on "shock, horror" articles and news items. it's an area of NJ where mtv decided to drop a bunch of idiot guidos (read: italian americans) who are both proud of their heritage and their utter lack of common sense. hilarity ensues. apparently dell dropped their advertising slots on the show, because they realised it was a laughing at rather than with situation, and didn't want any racist accusations.
