Russian Jersey Shore Coming To Lifetime


Although there have been a lot of proposed Jersey Shore type shows being offered, Brighton Beach is the first that has actually been picked up by a network. The show which is being called a Russian Jersey Shore will follow several groups of people as they interact with a nightclub in Brighton Beach. For now Lifetime is saying that the show will feature not only Russian Jersey Shore types but also their parents and even grandparents. I don't think that part will last. I think Lifetime wants ratings and they will do that is to play to the stereotypes as much as Jersey Shore does.

In fact, the producer of the show told a reporter, "We are big fans of 'Jersey Shore,' but the Russian community has its own set of characters which we think could be even more interesting. There will be plenty of vodka, techno music and guys wearing Adidas pants, leather jackets and gold chains, and driving souped-up cars. There will also be a lot of hot, decked-out Russian girls."

I don't know about you, but I really want an Appalachian one.
