Boardwalk Blowups. This episode of Jersey Shore from season one was very interesting. It was the only episode from our whole study that had physical man vs. man violence. When the whole cast was at a bar a man was annoying them all, than continued to instagate Ronnie and Sammie while following them down the boardwalk. Ronnie than got into a fight with the guy. Once the fight was broken up Ronnie just walked away because. he said he didn't want to get arrested. What is this saying to any young man or anyone who watches Jersey Shore? Could it make them think that it's okay to get into a fight as long as you can get away and not get caught?
Also in this episode, while at a bar, Snookie gets hit in the face by a man who she thinks is taking their shots. This was the only violence that was physical between a man and women. What made this most interesting was that at the end of the show there was a memo saying how hitting a women is a crime and you will get arrested for it, also if you know anyone who has been beatten by man you should report it. It was good that MTV put this memo at the end of the episode, but there is so much violence in so many other episodes and shows that it makes me wonder why the would only do this when a man hits a women. Why not what women are fighting each other? Also, why is it okay for a women to be mad and hit a man and not get looked down at for that?
