Is The Situation Appearing on BONES? The Jersey Boy Gives Us the Scoop
August 6, 2010 by Marisa Roffman
BONES creator Hart Hanson told EW.com earlier this week that he was hoping to have Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino appear on the upcoming JESRSEY SHORE-inspired episode of his series, but is it actually going to happen?
GIVE ME MY REMOTE caught up with The Situation today and asked whether he would actually be appearing on the FOX series.
“I heard that rumor, too,” he said. “You never know. If the right offer comes around, I’d be honored.”
But has he officially been approached by the show to guest star?
“I’ve heard something,” was all he would say. “Nothing official yet, though.”
Hmm.
Would you be okay if The Situation appeared on BONES?
Or would you prefer he stuck to the JERSEY SHORE?

PLEASE, Hart Hanson, if you’re reading, keep him away from BONES. Quality TV shouldn’t promote stupidity. Even if it’s just to fictionally kill stupidity.
I don’t watch the Jersey Shore because it offends my sensibilities. I certainly don’t want anyone from that show appearing on one of my favorite shows, namely Bones. It would be an insult to fans’ intelligence.
If this happens in the same ep as the Hannah invasion, I need Booth’s gun now.
No, thank you!! It’s enough that they’re going to do a “Guido” type of episode. They need to get a real actor, not this reality TV nobody.
Skylark, this is for the 3rd episode. Hannah comes in at episode 2 🙂
“The right offer”? LMAO He can’t be worth that much. If he’s asking for A LOT of money, I hope HH passes.
I’m still not entirely clear on what Jersey Shore is (and don’t feel like I’m missing much) — a reality show? That would explain my ignorance then, since I make a point of avoiding reality TV. (Got way too much reality in my own life, thanks.)
That said, based on how often I see it referenced in the news, I can understand why HH/SN are doing a Jersey Shore-themed ep. If it exposes the show to people who watch JS, that might be a good thing for Bones. (Might be a very good thing, given the mood of at least some fans right now.) And if they’re doing the ep, they might as well get the person from the show. (Though I admit to being a little confused about what’s in it for him, since the victims on the show don’t usually get much exposure. At least not with skin on. It’s not like playing a dead person is going to further his ‘acting’ skills…)
Really, truly not expecting to watch the ep myself, but hey, if it generates more interest in the show, I can understand why they’re doing it.
Honestly? I don’t care. I don’t know who he is.
Well considering Bones aften pokes fun of current absurd things in the news…this is probably not going to be a very flattering moment for this brash no talent nobody…but …I still hate it!
If they want to do a funny ep about the ridiculousness of the “guido tribe” at least get a really good funny actor to portray this person.
It just adds to my worry that Bones has lost it’s way, and it hitting at shots in the dark to draw viewers, instead of relying on really good stories by really good writers, with really good actors. This isn’t doing much to help with my anxiety about the future of the show.
Well I didn’t know who this Situation guy was until he was mentioned by HH earlier this week but after some Googling I SERIOUSLY hope he doesn’t appear on Bones or anyone/anything related to his show. I don’t want to jump to conclusions, but having Hannah Banana and him at the same episode would be disastrous IMO.
Booth…shoot me now!
Only if he is the victim.
Amanda C, Hannah Banana, whose dictates, the other (Brazilian soap), never heard of this ‘subject’ and they say the U.S. should not be anything good. Everywhere is someone who is not that great, no. Changing the subject, Hannah Banana will be evicted when? They say to me that we must be careful not to happen what happened in the House, that is, Lucas was supposed to be in 07 episodes and ended up staying until the end. I hope that from the 4th episode, Bones start to ‘attack’ to another until she disappeared. The Booth is hers and nobody else.
Please, please, please NO!
Ugh people are considering leaving the show (I’m not one of them but I can see where they’re coming from) because they feel the quality is lacking and or their voice isn’t being heard.. (You can all say what you want but as fans, we put time, energy and money into this show, so they should at least not make fun of the shippers and say that they like to talk for everybody.)
To me this suggests they’re indeed looking for a new, type of audience and that they don’t really care about the fans that have been watching this show religiously for the last 5 years. (I said suggests, I’m not saying it’s true.. But with everything that’s coming out about the new season, it kind of starts to feel that way)
If you want people to keep watching, write good story-lines and don’t repeat the same thing over and over again. Enough with the 3rd parties already! They have enough issues to keep them apart right now, without us having to see Booth make out with someone else. Here’s hoping for the best for season 6!
That being said I still have hope that HH & co come to their senses! I think this episode if done well could have great potential, undercover episodes are always fun. But please don’t associate yourself with that crap, by hiring him. Thanks!
I PRAY that they do not have that walking STD on Bones! I LOVE Bones, and I think that the whole Jersey Shore cast is a waste and they would do nothing good for the series. Unless Bones is discovering his dead body on the show, I really do not see the point in giving him a role!
You know. I don’t know who this guy is and because of this I plan to ignore him as just another actor in the episode. I know a lot of people are starting to get upset with bones and hh but I personally plan to love bones forever no matter what because honestly if it stayed te same forever I would die of boredom. Of course as any sane person I’m a little skeptical about the next season but I’m gonna try to be openminded. I suggest this to others as well.
Who is this guy anyway? Is it gonna make a big difference anyway since he’s dying in the episode…idk.
Please, leave Bones alone. If you want to change the show, have “Bones” finish her year and go to Afganastan to help with the war effort and to be with her man. Then He could go to some history dig somewhere with her for another 6 months or a year, bring his son along, and they might have a baby somewhere in Africa, the show could be great for another few years at least. I LOVE this show. Those two belong together wherever they are.
I think that it’ll turn out great (the episode) whether or NOT they hire The Situation for Bones.
PS: Marisa, you’re crazy and I admire you for that! LOL! 😀
I wouldn’t mind if he was the one who was dead; but i’m dubious about his acting talent. We don’t want a ruined episode!
Hahahahahahahahahahah! Well idrk why everyone is freackin out… I think it would be halarious for the Situation to be on bones! He is super famous with all the teens because a lot of us actuallly watch the jersey shore… so what if he is racy on his show… he is prob ganna be dead and/or scripted and all he would do is get nmore people to watch the show… he is crazy and it would be SICK if he geussed stared! I think hh is onto something;)
I’ve never seen Jersey Shore… but I think it’ll just be a laugh. Hey, it’s only for one episode, if there was an arc about it I’d have a problem. I can only imagine the funny comments, I only wish Zack was there to experience it!
haha i love how almost everyone does not want the situation on Bones! but i love Jersey Shore, its complete trash but great in every way and Mike makes the show! well not really but he is great. please please please be on Bones!! it would honestly make my life. although i don’t think he can act very well.
