When does ‘Buckhead Shore’ release and where can you watch it?

'Buckhead Shore' releases on June 23, 2022. A trailer for the show dropped on June 2. You can catch the show exclusively on the MTV channel.

What is ‘Buckhead Shore’ all about?

‘Buckhead Shore’ promises to be a delectable young adult drama with all the fun and thrills that entails. It is about the interpersonal lives of a group of friends making a name for themselves in the 'Beverly Hills of the South' as they escape their everyday life and head to the lake shore to let loose. The show comes five years after 'Floribama Shore' and 13 years after the original 'Jersey Shore' premiered. 

Jersey Shore debuted on MTV in 2009. Its popularity has since led to several spinoffs, including 'Floribama Shore' and 'Jersey Shore Family Vacation'. The original 'Jersey Shore' series is still MTV’s highest-rated series ever. The 'Shore' Franchise continues to keep its audience hooked with its dramatic plots.  

What does the original 'Jeresy Shore' cast have to say about this new spin-off?

MTV recently decided to expand its francise with a couple of Shore releases that are in a line-up. Although, the original cast members of the 'Jersey Show' are not quite in the same mood. The cast expressed their dissatisfaction, with every cast member of 'Jersey Shore: Family Vacation' taking to Twitter to post a statement in protest with the hashtag #WeAreJerseyShore.

"As a cast that took a chance with a network in need, we put our most vulnerable moments on television for the world to see," the group statement reads. "We gave our all over the past 13 years, became a family, and continue to open our lives for the world. so please understand that we are not in support of a version that will exploit our original show, our hard work, and authenticity to gain viewers. Don't forget to tune in to an all-new season of Jersey Shore Family Vacation. #WeAreJerseyShore".



 

Who stars in the MTV show?

The cast of the upcoming show includes JuJu Barney, Katie Canham, Savannah Gabriel, Adamo Giraldo, Parker Lipman, Bethania Locke, Pat Muresan, Chelsea Prescott, and DJ Simmons. Like its predecessors, the reality show documents nine young adults who live together for the summer.



 

Who are the showrunners?

The show is produced by MTV. SallyAnn Salsano, who was also behind the original 'Jersey Shore', serves as executive producer.
