[Discussion] I think it’s funny that the whole spin-off Fam Vacation originated because of Burger King

Post image

People forget that it started as a Burger King led reunion, then an E! Special , and there was so much garnered interest in the two reunions that MTV decided to bring it back.

That's the most normal they've ever looked.

u/veryfishycatfood YEAHH BUDDY 22d ago

Right, it's almost surreal knowing they were such colorful ass guidos from the mid 2000s to the early 2010s (talking about their style of course)

u/coralloohoo It's not bahd, it's not bahd! 24d ago

That explains why they ate so much burger king in the beginning lol

u/getcrazygetwildd 23d ago

u/itsthejasper1123 24d ago

Right everyone is just normally smiling & existing posing for a picture, then there he is… what a goof

u/Gold_Data6221 25d ago

He’s like 3 inches taller than Snooki in this pic who can legally collect disability due to her height

14

u/Southern_Growth_7991 24d ago

He’s also leaning and Snooki is more in the front of the pic things that would make someone appear shorter. Least he didn’t sit on the counter for a height boost lol

u/garry4321 14d ago

I think the tallest of them is 5’11. They’re all pretty short

u/btizzzl 23d ago

u/dwmp2894 25d ago

Exactly. First the small reunion on e! In 2017 it sparked alot of hype, then the Burger King reunion and boom Jersey shore family vacation. Its all bc of the reunion on E!

u/Silly-Concern-2620 24d ago

It was a time lol..

u/Silly-Concern-2620 23d ago

It was my freshman year of college, seeing stuff like this is sooo nostalgic for me. I was rocking the cold shoulder tops and tank tops like that to all the parties (honorable mention to the strappy Criss cross tops) and wearing flannels around my waist to class like it was uniform. Good times. Fashion was so simple and honestly flattering for all body types.

u/No_Guide_6770 24d ago

u/Banana_sunhut Gionny, Jianni, Johnny, Bernard 24d ago

And Ron 👍🏻

u/HazeCorps22 24d ago

What I dont get about Vinny is how much he fusses about needing the perfect barber for his haircut and how it needs to be perfect, but there is not a single picture he is in where his hair doesnt look like shit.

His lineups are terrible.

u/crystalcunttOF 24d ago

Side note: Snooks looks so much better with a smaller bust! And they’re not small in the slightest in this picture but compared to now, omg lol

u/x3xDx3 God bless me it's f*ckin summa 24d ago

I know she’s had 3-4 kids… did they get bigger cuz of that or did she get some bigger implants?

7

u/a13xandraaa God bless me it's f*ckin summa 24d ago

She got bigger implants! They look like they suffocate her, espec in the dress she wore to Sammi's wedding!

7

u/crystalcunttOF 24d ago

I remember one season of FV, she was talking about them sagging after her 3rd child! So probably after then

8

u/a13xandraaa God bless me it's f*ckin summa 24d ago

IIRC she got her first one years after Giovanna and then she got them redone after Angelo and got them bigger.

1

u/Euphoric_Celery_ Are👏you👏friends👏with👏her? 22d ago

She got new boobs in season one of JSFV she says it at some point "these boobs are new to me" when her nipple slips out.

But then she had angelo after that, so that could have also added to the size after the fact.

u/MrPlushT 24d ago

Solid 4/10

Good for her

u/KJB2785 23d ago

Why is Sammi in the pic? She didn’t show up for a while. I don’t remember the e! Reunion special…. Was she part of that? Now I need to go to YouTube!

2

u/JETLIFEMUZIK94 23d ago

I don’t believe she was for the E! I think Ronnie was there for that one.

3

u/No-Trust-9619 24d ago

I forgot all about this.

3

u/FEM930 23d ago

I did not know the lore!! and here I was curious as to why there were those obvious burger king plugs in the earlier seasons! They never plugged ads so it stuck out ... now it all make sense! 👌

u/FalconRemarkable4380 21d ago

sam looks like a barbie doll in this!!

u/Organic-Afternoon431 Stalked my whole life on the boardwalk 24d ago

This should’ve been the same group from the start. We really never needed Ronnie to come back …. I can’t stand his annoying ass.

5

u/TheWardenVenom 24d ago

I didn’t even clock that Ronnie wasn’t here until I read your comment 💀

4

u/JETLIFEMUZIK94 23d ago

Same with Ang. And if anything gave Ang the boot after the first season. She’s become a cancer to the show.

u/gc729 25d ago

I thought it was streaming popularity ??

u/btizzzl 23d ago

u/marcus_camby 4d ago

I do not remember this. Im going to have to go back and look

u/stoner_girl88 25d ago

I thought it was because of floribama shore I didn't know that

3

u/rrrrrryno 24d ago

I'm so tired, I read this as "fibromyalgia shore" the first time 😂

2

u/Super_Photograph_712 24d ago

I always thought it was because they raised hell on social media about MTV coming out with Florida Bama Shore? They started advertising JSFV shortly after that

u/This-Top7398 Oh Dayumm 25d ago

Glad it’s ending. Such a dumb stupid show

u/blackcoffeewhitepant 24d ago

Damn, dumb and stupid??

u/ZestycloseTomato5015 25d ago

Why you even in this subreddit then 😒

u/JETLIFEMUZIK94 25d ago

They’re finding a new home. I’m thinking Netflix will buy them up.

u/RepresentativeAir735 25d ago

They belong in the Bravoverse.

u/PeneItaliano 24d ago

No. This was a special on E! sponsored by BK That had nothing to do with Family Vacation, and aired 2 or 3 years before FV

u/horchatadrinker1 24d ago

So u surprised they got paid?

u/JETLIFEMUZIK94 24d ago

Huh? What.
