SEASIDE HEIGHTS, N.J. (AP) — Here’s the real situation: It turns out MTV’s “Jersey Shore” isn’t killing New Jersey’s reputation after all.
A new nationwide poll finds the reality show about a group of hard-drinking, foul-mouthed 20-somethings at a beach house in Seaside Heights, N.J., may even be helping a bit by bringing attention to the real Jersey shore.
The Fairleigh Dickinson University PublicMind poll, released Monday, found no statistical difference between those who have seen the show and those who haven’t.

Blake Harrison hates it when people say he is their “hero”.
The ‘Inbetweeners’ star – who plays dopey Neil Sutherland in the E4 teen comedy – explained people should really be aiming higher than his hapless alter-ego.

Last night: Jesse Tyler Ferguson from Modern Family said that Cat Deeley should be nominated for an Emmy, and then she was! It was like magic!
The opening dance is either about the fiery Latin salsa or menstruation. All I know is there’s a giant red dress that covers the stage. And the music gets weird and choppy at the end. I think Jordan gets the glamour spot, if you’re interested in that sort of thing.
