Why is MTV’s “Jersey Shore” so popular?
Do you watch “Jersey Shore”? Why do you think it’s so popular?
JACK MERRY, Centerville: “I watch it. I think it’s popular because people like feeling smarter than other people.”
TERESA WILLIAMS, Dayton: “They’re popular because of the accent and all the drama that goes on.”
KATRINA FRYE, Beavercreek Twp.: “I have no idea why it’s popular. There’s nothing appealing about it. It’s nothing I’d want my 9-year-old daughter to watch.”
CHRIS COCHRAN, Washington Twp.: “I’ve seen five or six episodes. A little bit of Snooki makes everybody’s day a little better.”
KELLI ZELINSKAS, Beavercreek: “I only saw Snooki on “Oprah.” I do not watch the show. It’s all big hair and fake nails.”
JEREMY MCMURTREY, Centerville: “I watch it because it’s funny, and it’s really happening.”
HEATHER ARNDTS, Huber Heights: “I’ve seen it. It’s so stupid. They act really spoiled. They’re popular because they have an accent and they act the fool.”
BEN REEB, Centerville: “I’ve watched it a couple of times. I don’t know why it’s popular, but it’s hilarious watching drunk people.”

Jerry Springer made a career out of exploiting stupid people. Stupid people are funny to watch. From a distance anyway…

Inferiority complex relief? people want to feel better about themselves so they see people who are “less smart” than they are.
