By now, you've probably heard the good news: Jersey Shore's back for another fist-pumpin' season! The jury's still out as to where they'll be GTLing, but according to Pauly D (see video), it's gonna be "somewhere warm."
Until the exact location is announced, all we can do is wildly speculate stalk them on Twitter, pre-order J. Shore on DVD and try and predict whether the gang -- particularly Sam and Ronnie -- will still be on speaking terms by the time the show starts taping in March. (Right now, your guess is as good as ours.)
Fortunately, the cast (minus Ron Ron) swung by the Today show this morning to announce their return and offer up a few clues as to their future destination. Take a look back at some Season 1 highlights and watch Today's Meredith Vieira engage in some awkward boardwalk banter with the Jersey Shore gang!
