'Jersey Shore' is known as 'Macaroni Rascals' in Japan!
'Macaroni Rascals' sounds like a children's cartoon, not a reality television show about a group of reckless Italian Americans that love to party and drink liver damaging amounts of alcohol in a single night.
Now, to be honest, the full name of the show is actually "MTV Jersey Shore - the New Jersey life of Macaroni Rascals'
As it turns out, the term 'Macaroni Rascals' first appears in a Japanese translated version of The Godfather. They use the term 'Macaroni Rascals' because there isn't a Japanese word for 'guido' - and because of the fact that apparently, Italians eat a lot of macaroni.
The title of the show isn't politically correct, but does anybody really care?
