Lake Shore to be Canada’s even more outrageous answer to Jersey Shore

by Jon Cranny on Nov 10, 2010 at 11:42 am
Lake Shore is being touted as a Canadian, multi-ethnic version of Jersey Shore.

Looks like the fist-pumping champs of Jersey Shore will have some Canadian competition.

Lake Shore is Toronto’s answer to the MTV reality series starring Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi and Michael “The Situation” Sorrentino.

I seriously did a facepalm upon hearing about this forthcoming show. Yet I was intrigued enough to watch the trailer, though I ended up viewing it through my fingers like a scared child watching a horror movie.

This train-wreck cast seems crazier and even more outrageous than it’s American counterparts.

As much as we’re shaking our heads at this show, I am sure it will still be a huge hit—after it finds a network to carry it. The website for the show has been overcapacity for a couple of days now.

Like a car crash, we won’t be able to look away.

See what is in store and meet the cast:

Crazier? Outrageous? In Toronto? Really... Something does not compute. My guess is that it'll be about as scintillating as that Whistler ripoff of The Hills.

In other news, a zombie outbreak scheduled to take place in Toronto next spring has been postponed indefinitely. Leaders of the undead cite a rising fear of incidentally assimilating "d-bags" into their ungodly ranks as a reason for postponing the end of times.

Better Toronto than Vancouver.

Good grief Canada. Stick to maple syrup and bacon. Let America take care of the entertainment. You just embarrass yourself.

When I saw the name of the show I figured it was set in Kelowna. If you want to find D-bags that can compete with Jersey, I'd say that's the place to look

Hey Americans, it's not like our GOOD quality Canadian culture cuts it for trash reality TV, so of course this blows. So yeah, "greggron" can stuff it, because everyone knows Canada's been putting out bands and music like woah but those don't go over with the trash-pop damaged TMZ crowd, do they?

re: fraserburn

It hasn't been picked up by anyone. No one wants to touch this. (fear of tele-herpes)

Though the characters of Lake Shore do remind me a lot of the average ditzy 20-something CBC News "reporter"

(sound of toilet flush, our Canadian originality going down the drain, clogged by the sub pop culture of our neighbors to the south.)

Yup, we can win gold in Olympic hockey, but at the end of the day, we are still America's ass hat.

Guess the screenwriters first choice to shoot{Surrey} scared the producers too much.
