Jersey Shore Premiere Highest Rated Telecast In MTV History

If you hate "Jersey Shore," prepare to get angry because the season 3 premiere set a MTV record. That's right, with a whopping 8.45 million total viewers, America's favorite guidos had the most watched series telecast in the history of MTV.

To put that into perspective for you, as popular as the first 2 seasons of "Jersey Shore" were, the previous high was 6.723 million viewers (the episode when Angelina fought Snooki and went home).

I must admit, I thought this would be the last season for the guids, but if they can sustain those type of numbers, MTV will continue to back the Brinks truck up to all of their doorsteps to keep filming.
