Im also from NJ and Italian. Some of the shows are accurate to the AREA the show was filmed in. In RHWONJ that area tends to be upper class, Italian families all living in the mansions. I live on the jersey shore. A 5 minute walk from my house to the beach and no one around here is a "guido" except for the bennies that come down in the summer from NY, PA etc. I personally am not offended by any of these shows because they are so funny and entertaining but I can see why people get upset. Jersey is actually a great place, just portrayed incorrectly.
haha... I guarantee you anyone on here that's not from NJ read that and thought "WTF IS A BENNY!?" lol
I live very close to where RHWONJ is filmed... I know those types of people, and that is sadly pretty accurate. Lucky for me, my town is mostly made of rednecks lol
