Made In Staten Island cancelled already?
A petition has been launched to axe the MTV reality show, claiming it is destroying the New York borough’s image, NY Times reports:
“The portrayal of Staten Island as a cesspool of gangsters, meatheads and low lives appears to be the main focus of MTV show development in recent years,” writes the petitioner, who has garnered almost 6,000 signatures.
“A show like this demeans what it is to be from Staten Island . . . [It] has one of the highest per capita incomes out of the five boroughs, and we also have several higher education institutions with very good graduation rates and excellent public schools serviced by caring teachers.” But Gravano, whose daughter Karina stars on the show, tells us, “The outrage is for no reason. They haven’t even watched the show. It’s not glorifying criminal activity.”
Made In Staten Island is set to premiere January 14 on MTV.
Will Made In Staten Island be cancelled or renewed for Season 2? You’ll find out here first…
