NEW YORK, New York (X17online) - Jersey Shore is TV's No. 1 series at 10 p.m. Thursdays and is MTV's top-ranked series of all time in TV's most coveted demo; ages 12-34.

The Shore has drawn over 8 million viewers for each of its episodes so far this season, and its most recent airing stands as MTV's most-watched series broadcast ever.

Season four will take the Shore kids back to their Italian roots, and we can't wait to se what happens to the crew in a foreign land. Production starts in Italy in May and will wrap in July, which means the show will likely premiere in October or November 2011.
