rpmrecords Just...Plain...AWFUL..!! Caught this one night on TV, and it was so tragically bad that I had to keep watching to the very end, with a morbid curiosity which compels you to rubberneck after observing a car accident on the freeway. I won't say much about it, but let's just say that we are rapidly approaching the decline of Western civilization if they air drivel like this. Where have all the good shows gone? Even the weakest episode of the all-time classic series Twilight Zone or Get Smart, to cite but a couple of examples, would trounce this trash in entertainment value. Watch an episode at your own peril. Bet you won't tune in for an encore.

bbewnylorac Is this a Will Ferrell movie? It's like Talladega Nights - for real! Blonde bimbos? Check! Beer soaked jocks? Check! Everyone's huntin and fishin and drivin pickups and guzzling beer and wearing next to nothing. This almost fits into the category of 'so bad it's good', because you can almost watch it like a comedy. My favourite is the emaciated blonde girl who keeps a gun and a bible next to her bed. Talk about hedging your bets! It all comes across as a huge parody of the South. Like My Name is Earl, but I think Party Down South might actually portray real people. Yikes! I fear that these are their real lives. Maybe they should show, in a parallel series, really cerebral American young people celebrating -- reading books and going on picnics and drinking coffee. And not sleeping with their pigs. Sigh. Don't you love reality television?

Laura Davey I tuned into this show expecting to roll my eyes at a bunch of dumb red necks and scoff at CMT for producing another idiotic reality show. But then I got sucked in and completely immersed in the Southern lifestyle and antics of the cast.The Southern schtick is something new and casting was very well done (with the exception of Lauren - ugh I can't stand her). Lots of comparisons are being made to Jersey Shore, but I feel like this cast is less guarded and has more heart. The cast doesn't seem to care about what anyone thinks, but they do all care about each other. With that being said, the show still serves up lots of drama, fights and craziness, which can sometimes be lost when the cast gets along. Big Daddy and Murray are hilarious, Mattie is a hot mess of fun, Tiffany is someone you'd want to have you back, Walt is the unattainable man's man, and Lyle is very lovable.I hope it's renewed for a second season. I can see big things for this show if it's properly advertised and gets the right viewership.As Big Daddy said, Jersey Shore was GTL - Gym, Tan, Laundry and Party Down South is Gym, Tan, Liquor Store.

MarieVelvet For those who put this show down...I don't know what you consider entertaining. They make me laugh. Don't put others down because of your own insecurities. They had a blast and that's all that matters. They are way more entertaining than the Jersey Shore cast by far!!! What the hell you expect on reality TV?! For it to be perfect? Sorry this isn't a movie where everything is scripted and made up. You're not perfect so quit trash talking a show. I hope y'all continue making more seasons. Don't let anyone stop y'all. Y'all stay strong. And for those who complain..they just looking for a reason to be negative. You can't top the south. We just know how to have fun. So keep it up. Have a blast. Keep doing more crazy things so I could be entertained every Thursday night. Thank you guys for being so crazy!!!!!!
