After the success of Jersey Shore in the states, it seems only natural that the UK should get their own version, called “Geordie Shore.” The term “Geordie” refers to people from Tyneside and the show is filmed in Newcastle upon Tyne, with the cast members living together in the suburb of Jesmond. Like its American counterpart, “Geordie Shore” follows a collection of housemates as they display their larger than life personalities around the city and have a good time with each other as they party and seek pleasure with other guys and girls. The collection of characters on “Geordie Shore” is just as colorful and distinctive as the ones seen on “Jersey Shore”. Gary “Gaz” Beadle believes himself to be a master of attracting the opposite sex. Charlotte-Letitia Crosby has very high physical standards set for the men she might be interested in. Vicky Pattison is a Geordie and proud of it. Sophie Kasaei is a self-proclaimed chatterbox. Jason Gardner never wants to grow up or grow old. Greg Lake believes firmly in being a sharp, smart dresser. Over time, some cast members leave, some return, and some new faces are seen. However, that bombastic Geordie identity is never lost, only slightly refined and enhanced with each new addition to the cast. More than just the UK version of “Jersey Shore”, “Geordie Shore” is uniquely its own, with the Geordies commanding the viewer’s attention in their own way as they inhabit the simultaneously historical and metropolitan city that they call home. It had better be a big city; it will need to be to contain such large and dynamic personalities as the ones featured here. “Geordie Shore” provides entertainment for UK, US and Canada viewers alike, giving overseas audiences a unique look at life in a British city they might not otherwise have heard of.
