Any avid fan of MTV's Jersey Shore knows that many of the cast members are proud of their Italian heritage. So it's more than fitting that the cast made its way to European nation for the show's fourth season.

The Italian edition of Jersey Shore premiered last night, and was watched by a record-breaking amount of viewers. The fourth season's debut was seen by 8.8 million people, reports Entertainment Weekly, more than any other Jersey Shore premiere. So why did so many people tune in?
Believe it or not, we love these guys. As said by Halle Kiefer for RollingStone.com, "...when they're finally all back together, ah, that's amore." Through all of their ups and downs, we find happiness in seeing that the cast members are just like one, big Italian family.
