![]() ![]() The gang gets all dolled up for one final hard-partying outing, and Snooki even brings back The Pouf, reminding me of a simpler time when I got to watch this show for leisure. ![]() Jenni and Deena go to drag brunch, and Deena does a dramatic reenactment of “Me Coming Home From Lunch at Maloney’s Yesterday Because It’s Been A Rough Few Weeks.” “Tomorrow this vacation is over…” Jenni starts saying and WAIT A MINUTE, it’s tomorrow? It’s the last day of vacation FOR REAL THIS TIME, GUYS, and Pauly got a call from his agent saying that he’s DJing at Eleven (tastelessly stylized as E11EVEN). In closing, Ronnie and Mike make up until there’s drama needed for next season. You know, not like that kid wasn’t going to blame Ronnie for her problems anyway. This man loves not being accountable for his actions, which is by the way a great lesson to teach his little girl. ![]() “My reaction was to your action,” Ronnie says to Sitch, which is pretty much what he said in regards to Jen. ![]() And likewise, I think it’s confusing for the cast to know where the hard limits are when it comes to their personal lives. Yet because of this convergence, it’s really hard to seriously empathize with Ronnie as a human because Ronnie as a character is so hugely despicable. Occasionally, we get reminders that these aren’t characters, they’re real people (Jenni’s miscarriage reveal, Mike’s problems with tax evasion) and they have to live a complex life off-camera. So to summarize, what’s especially daunting about Jersey Shore is that we consume this madness and ill behavior as entertainment. If you’re not interested in doing that, then, you know, you can elect to not be on television where your exploits will be edited and magnified for millions of people. And like, I don’t know, he’s not unwrong, but can we consider something for a second? This entire show, for literally just under a decade, is about putting your (gym tan) dirty laundry on air. When Ronnie and Mike reconvene to talk things out, Ronnie says that Mike is a little b-h for talking about that rehab call. So let’s just get to killjoy Ronnie, who thinks that all the hard partying, drunken times were positive because “having fun is who I really am.” He decides to share his lowest moment too in case we forgot when he cheated on his baby momma. Situation’s favorite moment was just being here, which is just wasting my time. JWoww’s favorite moment is when Vinny and Pauly declared to their love for each other (same). Vinny’s favorite moments are when his mom and Uncle Prosciutto Gabagool visited and raining champagne on that one chick (which is also Deena’s favorite moment). Pauly’s favorite memory is “Being the prank war champion,” because he hates me and wants to burst a blood vessel, I guess. “My personal favorite is me and Ron spiraling,” Snooki contributes, referring to their 24-hour binge-drinking venture versus Ronnie’s 24/7 lifestyle choices. This is almost done, they promised me after the last episode it’s almost done. Instead, it’s a last supper of sorts, with Situation declaring, “I think we should go around the table and talk about our favorite memories.” So not even a last supper, a clip show. Spoilers ahead! Jersey Shore Family Vacation Episode 14 Recap: “The Final Supper”įrom what I can tell, or maybe I’ve just started blocking out memories of this show, we’re not picking up where we left off. Watch the video above for our reactions to this week’s episode and scroll down for our full recap of Jersey Shore Family Vacation. And feel free to come along with me on the spray-tan coated hot mess that is, Jersey Shore Family Vacation. So while I respect Sammi abstaining from this franchise, I guess I’m coming back to the shore. She’s in a really good place right now, by the way, although (and get ready to be reminded of this) she’s the only castmate to not to join the reunion.īut neither of us could ignore the all-too-soon return of Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, Jenni “JWoww” Farley, Deena Cortese, Pauly “DJ Pauly D” DelVecchio, Vinny Guadagnino, Ronnie Magro, and Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino. My brother ran into Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola at Dearborn Market the other week. Candidly, I watched the show as a guilty pleasure in college because, welp, the universe won’t let me forget that I’m a Jersey girl. So I’m very begrudgingly qualified to write the weekly Jersey Shore Family Vacation recap, having spent a decade trying to beat back my own Jerseyness. ![]()
