After nearly two decades of drama, Jersey Shore Family Vacation is coming to an end and the whole gang is coming back for one last round.
MTV has confirmed that the show will end with 18 farewell episodes that will world premiere on Thursday, May 7.
The entire original cast returns for the send-off; Angelina Pivarnick, Deena Cortese, DJ Pauly D, Jenni “JWOWW” Farley, Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino, Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, Ronnie Ortiz-Magro, Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola and Vinny Guadagnino, the same faces that first hit the screens back in 2009.
It is a remarkable race by any measure.
Since the debut has Jersey Shore universe has spanned nearly 300 episodes and spawned numerous spin-offs, turning a house full of boisterous twenty-somethings into one of reality television’s most enduring and culturally significant franchises.
Viewers have watched the cast grow up in real time through relationships, marriages, struggles with sobriety, parenthood and career reinventions, all while somehow keeping the same chaotic chemistry intact.
The final season is being billed as “one last hurray for a cultural icon,” and the milestone moments are coming thick and fast.
The final season will feature the usual mix of parties, baby showers, bachelorette parties, gender reveals, birthdays and weddings, along with the inside jokes and friendships that have defined the show since its inception.
Previous seasons are currently streaming on Paramount+ and Pluto TV.
And for those who are not quite ready to say goodbye Coast universe completely, MTV has confirmed that international spinoffs, including Canada coastremains in production.
