MTV’s monster hit “Jersey Shore Family Vacation” Returns

 Jerzdays are officially back. MTV’s “Jersey Shore Family Vacation,” the #1 unscripted series on cable in 2018 and the highest-rated cable series launch in the past six years, returns with new episodes starting Thursday, July 11th at 8PM ET/PT.

The roommates may be back, but a lot has changed, as the squad rallies around Mike, who’s facing prison time and planning a wedding.  At the same time, Deena’s about to give birth, Jenni’s contemplating divorce, Ronnie’s fed up with all the jokes at his expense, and Pauly can’t resist just one wedding prank. Through the challenges and fears, pranks and surprise wedding guests, is the humor that keeps this group together and proves that facing life’s twists and turns is easier with friends.
