A Bit Of Context

When Geordie Shore started in 2011, it tapped into the early-2010s boom of high-drama housemate reality shows, mirroring the formula of Jersey Shore but with a distinctly North East England twist. Over time it became one of MTV’s longest-running reality formats, continuing with many series well beyond its debut year.
