I tuned into this show expecting to roll my eyes at a bunch of dumb red necks and scoff at CMT for producing another idiotic reality show. But then I got sucked in and completely immersed in the Southern lifestyle and antics of the cast.
The Southern schtick is something new and casting was very well done (with the exception of Lauren - ugh I can't stand her). Lots of comparisons are being made to Jersey Shore, but I feel like this cast is less guarded and has more heart. The cast doesn't seem to care about what anyone thinks, but they do all care about each other. With that being said, the show still serves up lots of drama, fights and craziness, which can sometimes be lost when the cast gets along. Big Daddy and Murray are hilarious, Mattie is a hot mess of fun, Tiffany is someone you'd want to have you back, Walt is the unattainable man's man, and Lyle is very lovable.
I hope it's renewed for a second season. I can see big things for this show if it's properly advertised and gets the right viewership.
As Big Daddy said, Jersey Shore was GTL - Gym, Tan, Laundry and Party Down South is Gym, Tan, Liquor Store.
