When i viewed this page and saw there was no reviews, i thought i would attempt to get the ball rolling on reviews of Geordie shore. I never watched the original series (jersey shore) however i would be prepared to put money on this been a better show.
Old folk will have a seriously low opinion on this show as they think its a bunch of uneducated idiots running around failing in every aspect of life, and funnily enough, the Sudoku fanatics would be correct. However this north - eastern lot have a certain charm to them that will only appeal to some teens and early 20's.
What makes this show so charming? for me its the escape from the usual miseries of life that are visible in soaps and drama's. Or maybe its because its a welcome rest from other reality shows which push the boundaries of terrible tele further. e.g: Made in Chelsea, The only way is Essex. (fans, please don't try and say it deserved that BAFTA)
Another strong point is through all the drama there is visible character building with out the show becoming dull and emotional.
Perhaps some of the issues the house mates create themselves through immaturity is a slight fault, especially when they argue then are suddenly friends again. That's the only flaw i can think of about Geordie Shore.
At the risk of sounding slightly weird, you would have to be in a good mood to sit through this, because its all about other people having a great time.
Oh, and if this doesn't convince you its worth a watch, there's some nudity. That's only for randy teens though.
So, taking everything into account, Its a bit of a roller coaster as there is a lot going on and the show changes direction every once in a while which is very welcome. With plenty of laughs along the way, with a nice little bit of drama in there as well. Because of this, i rate it a healthy 8.3.. if that's not a little bit random.
