The Situation Leaving 'Jersey Shore' In One Year?

MTV has a situation on its hands: it's soon no longer going to have The Situation in its hands.

The breakout star of the network's 'Jersey Shore' has bigger plans for his abs, telling E! Online that he plans on leaving the show in the near future.

"There's only so long you can rule the reality world," he said. "Maybe another year or so of reality, and then I'm gonna graduate to movies."

With his trademark modesty, The Situation -- real name Mike Sorrentino -- compared himself to another Mike, a basketball player who dominated his field with talent, grit and hard work in much the same way that The Situation's preternatural abilities have helped him become a giant in his:

"It's like Michael Jordan. There's only so long you can keep winning them rings," he said.

Sorrentino has already branched out to extend his dominance to other fields, penning a self-help book, starring in his own workout DVD, and bringing his considerable rhythm and nimbleness to 'Dancing With The Stars.'

While cast mate Pauly D was given his own spinoff show, as were Snooki and JWOWW, it seems that the fourth season in Italy may be The Situation's last Jersey Shore situation.

I think the fame he knows now will go a lot faster than it came.

Maybe, maybe not. All we need to to keep our hero around is to keep commenting about him on H.P. Keep up the good work.

The only thing this guy has going for him is his abs. He should be running a gym or a trainer to the celebs.

In America, if you've got abs and cameras following you around, you're a star. Does that say more about them or us?

I have never seen this show. I have seen the explosion of it's cast into the pop culture ether. Whatever happened to the days of Eddie and Debbie, or Eddie and Liz, or Eddie and Connie?

Exactly. Eddie and Debbie were the Brad and Jen of their age. Liz was Angelina. Connie is whoever Brad will be with next, probably a tribute to Jen. Read Wishful Drinking by Carrie Fisher.

Honestly, the people on Jersey Shore (with a few exceptions) are not nearly as dumb as many of you think they are.
12:56 PM on 02/07/2011

There are 8 all together. I'd say only 2 are actually unintelligent.

So long and good riddance. He will never be heard from again, thankfully.

Show business has always been an insane profession and it seems like it keeps getting crazier and crazier.

i am not convinced that hollywood is much concerned or interested in real genuine acting talent, but more interested in personality and spectacle.
