According to an interview with Archie creator Dan Parent at Comics Continuum the "Riverdale Shore" story will reference orangey tans, big hair, bickering, the influence of cameras on otherwise normal behavior and other iconic components of "Jersey Shore" without replicating sexual content or referencing Italian Americans in a demeaning manner (the word "Guido" won't get tossed around). The content balance seems like pretty much exactly what you'd expect from an all-ages Archie book, although Parent did acknowledge a certain hot tub scene:
"There's a hot tub, but nothing racy happens, although Jughead does make a mess of it!"
The issue will arrive just in time to coincide with the second season of "Jersey Shore," which is set to begin on MTV on July 29.
