The latter half of Season 6 has produced the franchise’s highest rating and best share in two years, up 2% and 1%, respectively, over the previous season.

When Season 6 returned to airwaves in August, it helped boost MTV’s Thursday primetime rating more than 300% over its previous weekly average to become the best season premiere for Jersey Shore Family Vacation in more than four years.

Audiences have been buzzing about the season online as well, according to Paramount Global. Throughout the season, Jersey Shore Family Vacation raked in more than 18M total engagements, which is up 128% season-over-season.

Season 6 isn’t quite over yet, as Jersey Shore Family Vacation – Reunion: Part Two is set to air Thursday on MTV.

In addition to Snooki, whose real name is Nicole Polizzi, the cast also includes Paul “Pauly D” DelVecchio, Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino, Ronnie Ortiz-Magro, Jenni “JWoww” Farley, Vinny Guadagnino, Deena Cortese, Angelina Pivarnick and Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola.

Jersey Shore Family Vacation is produced by SallyAnn Salsano and Frank Miccolis for 495 Productions. Jacquelyn French serves as Executive Producer for MTV.

Snooki & JWoww Heading Back to the Jersey Shore?

She may be a mother now, but that isn’t stopping Snooki from revisiting her Jersey Shore beginning…

The 25-year-old Chilean American reality television personality and her co-star, fellow Latina JWoww, may return to their home base on the Jersey Show for the next installment of their spin-off series.

Snooki & JWoww

MTV hasn’t confirmed it yet, but town officials have revealed that the two will film the third season of Snooki & JWoww in two shore towns; at a home in the Pelican Island section of Berkeley and a residence in Seaside Heights.

Seaside Heights Business Administrator John A. Camera says the show’s producers, 495 Productions, have paid a $25 film permit fee for a “pretty light filming schedule at that address. It seems like it is a very small production and we are not looking at much need for security at this point.”

Some local residents aren’t too pleased that the women are back on the Jersey Shore. Berkeley Township Council President James Byrnes said, “We don’t even have time for this nonsense. We don’t need another distraction right now,” as the town continues to rebuild after being hit by Hurricane Sandy.

New mom Snooki has hit back at Byrnes, tweeting, “Don’t worry James Byrnes,we won’t be a ‘distraction’towards you&the community,i have a family just like everyone else that enjoys the shore.”

Resident Lori Tyska, who lives a block away from the Berkeley house, agreed with Byrnes, “It is crazy to do it here. … Many of us have just moved back to the area or are in the process of trying to get our homes rebuilt.” On the contrary, Laura Biondo stated, “I’m fine with it. We may have to check out what is going on down there.”

The new season of Snooki & JWoww will still follow Snooki as she continues motherhood and JWoww enjoying her engagement and preparing to head to the altar.
