Will a "Redneck" Version of "Jersey Shore" Be a Hit?

SodaHead TV 2010/06/10 15:00:00
Doron Ofir Casting scored MTV an unexpected success with MTV's guilty pleasure, "Jersey Shore," but Guidos are so last year. So how does DOC propose to top it? What about "Party Down South," a new reality show featuring "12 lucky guys and gals who are keepin' it country and want to party their asses off"?

Well, that's exactly what they're doing.

The casting company will take an RV through much of the south-eastern United States to find "the hottest, funniest and proudest Southerners" starting June 24th, and is accepting video auditions through partydownsouth.com. "The party down South will rise again," says executive director Doron Ofir. "Screw sippin' champagne, let's make it a six-pack summer!"

Is DOC on to something, or is this just a condescending appeal to the public's obsession with stereotyping? There's a good chance "Party Down South" could spark a strange fascination like "Jersey Shore," but DOC also runs the risk of overdoing it, like The Real World.

Which will it be?

    It's a condencending stereotype gig. Do a wrong-side-of-the-tracks, or an east-coast-west-coast-polical... reality show. You won't see it.

    I noticed I couldn't type 'politically elite' in my comment.

    Because you put - in-between-your-words it only allows words of a certain length - it cuts the ends off of words longer than that.

    What you're going to have is a bunch of slack jawed, inbred, toothless, Jerry Springer show rejects, sitting around waiting for the first of the month when their government check gets in, trying to make people think that all rednecks are like them.

    Look at some of the shows on right now, People love watching stupid people. This show will have nothing to do with real people.

    If this show can make it, anything can.
