Vice TV’s “Dark Side of the 90’s” returns with its second season next month, featuring new twisted tales from the era. In the Season 2 trailer, which is exclusive to Variety, Mary Jo Buttafuoco breaks down the infamous 1992 incident in which she was shot in the face by Amy Fisher, a teenager that her husband, Joey Buttafuoco, had committed statutory rape against.
Labeled by the tabloids as “The Long Island Lolita,” 17-year-old Fisher served seven years on first-degree aggravated assault charges for the attack. “I turned my head to open my door, and that’s when my head exploded,” Mary Jo Buttafuoco says in the trailer.
The promo also includes 90’s icon Maury Povich, and teases of deep dives into “Cops,” “The Real World” and Mma and UFC.
Per Vice, “‘Dark Side of the 90’s’ reveals the soul of the decade through the pop culture moments, trends and people that captivated us.

Since its third season, History's reality show "Ax Men" -- which recently ended its sixth season -- has featured Shelby "Swamp Man" Stanga, who retrieves valuable sunken timber from the bottom of southern Louisiana's Atchafalaya Swamp.
Of all the colorful loggers featured on the show, Stanga -- who's been living in the swamps north of New Orleans since he was 9 -- may be furthest out of the box.
He doesn't wear a great deal; few outsiders can understand a word he says; he's prone to taking outrageous chances with equipment, brown swamp water and thunder-and-lightning storms; and his dog, Willy, moves just enough to prove he's neither dead nor a stuffed animal.
Airing Tuesdays, History's "The Legend of Shelby the Swamp Man" is an eight-episode, half-hour series that has followed Stanga on his quest to buy a new houseboat to replace the one that got wrecked in Hurricane Isaac.
