Not so much violence..but example of effects from Season 3 Jersey Shore
The Effects
When the people who watch Jersey Shore see that their favorite cast member get into a fight and nothing happens to them, or if they just get throwen out of a club for it, these people may think "Hey, if they can do this and not get into trouble than maybe I can too". Or it can show viewers that, okay these people are famous maybe if I act this way I can become cool or maybe even famous. Even when a cast member gets arrested they easily get out of it, which is not the case for everyone, exspecially people who may not have money for bail. It also seems that violence is what makes the show to keep it interesting for viewers. The difference between Jersey Shore and the Real World is that Jersey Shore is always drama and violence with the same people, and the Real World is just throwing a random selection of peole into a house together and see what happens.

The Real World D.C.
The Real World D.C. didn't have to much violence. When there was violence it was mostly verbal. This 2010 seaon of the Real World was the least violent out the Real World: Cancun and the Jersey Shore episodes we watched. The most violence that there was, were intense arrguments between a roomate Josh and his long distsnce girlfriend. Other arrguments were when the women roomates were arrguing with Josh about him cheating on his girlfriend. Other verbal violence from this season were between roomates Ashley and Ty who liked each other but had their fights. Also there was a fight between roomates Emily and Andrew. The fight between them Emily and Andrew made Emily feel uncomfortable and scared by him, to the point that she left the house to go sleep in a hotel. The other roomates felt that Emily took it to far and that she just didn't understand how Andrew was joking. The good thing about that happening was that it could actuall show veiwers how certian forms of violence can offend people and make them scared.

As Cancun Goes On
As the Real World Cancun went on we found that any violence even drama was revolved around one roomate. The problem was that no one liked her and they wanted her to leave they did what ever the could to get her to leave wich cause alot of verbal violence. But what to of the male roomates were trying to do was get her to hit them or fight someone, becaus if she did she would get taken off of the show. I would say they did try to work things out with her, but the peace never last.The only way they saw to solve it was to get her to leave. It makes me wonder if that was the right thing for them to do. Also if someone who was maybe having a similar problem, would they try to get someone in trouble to get away from them?
Good Start to Cancun
The 2009 first episode of the Real World Cancun had no violence in it at all. This was because, the new roomates didn't know each other yet. It was the first time they all met so no personalities crashed yet. On the first day the new roomates said "I love my roomates....so far". This implied that they knew eventually there would be people that they wouldn't like. As our study went on we found that to be true.
