Anyone that hasn't watched Jersey Shore has their preconceived notions about what the MTV series – one of the best series for the network - and its cast is all about. And while the show is indeed filled with drama, from the fights to the excessive partying, the series has also evolved. Now in its latest iteration, Jersey Shore: Family Vacation, most of the main cast members from the original series returned.
Older and wiser, they all have families, with most of them either married, with children (having made baby announcements on the show), or both. That doesn't stop them from partying when they're on vacation, of course, nor getting into spats with one another. Nonetheless, as they always say in every episode, they are a family and come together when they truly need one another. And they have proven this time and time again.

In an episode of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation, Mike was celebrating his five-year "Sober-versary," a big deal for the young man who turned his life around. The cast arranged a drive-by celebration, decorating their cars with balloons, streamers, and encouraging words.
Paulie and Ronnie, who could not be there in person, delivered a video message on a huge drive-by screen along with a pizza truck.

While the methods might have been questionable, the guys decided to pull a "double book" and invite Deena and Jenni as well as Angelina to a hotel in Las Vegas, not telling each that the other was invited. Their intentions were to finally get the girls to squash their beef almost a year after Angelina's wedding.
The events took a turn when Deena revealed she was pregnant and Jenni couldn't make it until the end due to surgery. Nonetheless, some clever strategies which included enlisting the help of Dr. Drew finally helped the girls revive their friendship.
1 Sunday Dinners
From the very beginning, any time the cast is in a house together, they make it a tradition to always have Sunday dinners. Sometimes, it's just them. Other times, others are invited along, such as Vinny's mother and his uncle Nino.
The family has expanded over the years to include spouses and significant others, and sometimes even the kids. Nonetheless, the Sunday dinners are a staple part of the series and one of the nicest things they all do for one another. It's no surprise that fans wished the show had more seasons after it finished the original run, falling in love with the cast once again for Family Vacation.
