A lot can change in nine years.
Y’all. Jersey Shore is finally back on TV, and if you’re not watching it, I honestly feel bad for you.
MTV
But a whole lot has changed in nine years! Here’s what the cast looked like in the very first episode of Jersey Shore in 2009 — compared to what they look like in the reboot, Jersey Shore: Family Vacation.
MTV
Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi
She’s married with two kids now, but that didn’t stop her from being herself, getting drunk, and peeing in the pool in their very first episode back.
MTV
Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino
He’s given up drinking and drugs and has a lovely girlfriend. Unfortunately, he’s facing possible prison time for tax fraud.
MTV
Jenni “JWOWW” Farley
Just like Snooki, she’s married with two kids. And she has pet fish!
MTV
Paul “Pauly D” DelVecchio
He’s rich AF from his DJing career, and lives in a big ol’ mansion in Las Vegas. He also has a little daughter!
MTV
Ronnie Ortiz-Magro
His girlfriend just gave birth to his first kid — a baby girl named Ariana.
MTV
Vinny Guadagnino
He’s all about fitness now — which means when he drunkenly orders pizza, he just scrapes off the toppings and eats that ¯_(ツ)_/¯.
MTV
Deena Cortese
Deena wasn’t in the first two seasons of Jersey Shore, so on the left is a picture from *her* first episode in Season 3. She’s now married, but waiting on kids for the time being!
MTV
Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola
Sadly, Sammi decided not to return for the reboot — so on the right, we have a recent picture from her Instagram. She’s got a boyfriend and says she’s over the Jersey Shore drama.

Angelina Pivarnick
Angelina isn’t a regular cast member on the reboot, but she is slated to make a guest appearance. She was last seen on VH1’s Couples Therapy.

And finally, the duck phone.
Yup, they definitely swapped out the phone at some point, cuz those are TWO DIFFERENT DUCKS.
