realityTV subgenre covering “Wicked Summah” & "Jersey Shore"

[jefferiestubes8]

TruTV has landed Wicked Summah, the unofficial spinoff of MTV's controversial reality series Jersey Shore.

A network spokesperson confirmed that Wicked Summah is in the "very early stages of development" at TruTV, which is part of Turner Entertainment Networks.

The show is scheduled to go into production this summer on Cape Cod with Reveille producing the show.

Boston stereotypes are sought for the cast.

So far, there is no such controversy dogging Wicked Summah, which will no doubt be filled with "Massholes," the derisive nickname for Boston locals who vacation on the Cape.

As per Wiki this falls into the

Special living environment
Some documentary-style programs place cast members, who in most cases previously did not know each other, in artificial living environments; The Real World is the originator of this style.

Hopefully this subgenre does not grow with more programs shooting in 2011 covering other city tourist destinations...I can see Las Vegas being one of the cities some producer will want to cover...
