“Gym, pale, laundry” is probably not a catchphrase on the Irish version of Jersey Shore, but I like the sound of it anyway. That’s right, there’s an Irish version of Jersey Shore! It’s called (confusingly) Tallafornia, and it’s about a group of hard-partying West Dubliners.
There are all the same devices as JS – hot tubs, muscled-out bros, girls taking shots in bikinis, plus some delightful Irish accents. The show premiered in the UK on Sunday and is already a huge hit. I’d say I hope it comes on over to the States, but then I’d have to recap it, and I can only handle so much trash in a given week.

If ‘delightful Irish accents’ are what you’re looking for… Tallaght is NOT the place to find them
I’m Irish and haven’t even heard of this!
To help your confusion, Tallaght is a place in Dublin so I assume they’re going for a (god-awful) punny name.
