ITV's answer to Jersey Shore, and it's just as bad at that show.
In 2009, MTV started airing Jersey Shore, a reality show about a bunch of unlikable junkies who yell, kiss and swear at each other. It was a smash hit even though a lot of people hated it, and it came to be that other channels were willing to milk the same success as this show.Take ITV, who have made good and bad shows. They then made this show, which is basically got the same exact idea as Jersey Shore, you take a bunch of dopes and put them in Essex. Like with most Reality Shows of this genre, almost nothing is real and is all acted out which to me, put out why they even call these "reality shows" when almost nothing is real.
The characters are your usual "good-looking, unlikeable chicks" and they for some reason have strange characteristics as well. In fact from what i've seen, many of the cast members act like their characteristics are real, even when they leave the series. Joey Essex, one of the most well known cast members on the series (alongside Chloe Sims and Gemma Collins) still acts in his "braindead and stupid" persona that he had on the show to this day for some reason, why?
Lastly, this show gives a bad reputation to Essex alone, much like how Jersey Shore gives Jersey a bad reputation. You can ask actual people who live in the county and they'll likely say something on what I said.
Anyways, this show sucks. Nothing else to say.
score 1/10
