MTV's Washington Heights

MTV's Washington Heights premiered tonight and I'm not impressed. Maybe I haven't given it a fair chance and need to watch a couple of more episodes.

It certainly isn't like the Jersey Shore, but I was hoping it would be a little more exciting and representative of the Heights that I grew up in and still live in. I had mixed emotions of seeing my beloved neighborhood on TV. Most people just want to see Washington Heights, more specifically Dominicans, represented properly.

I want to give the show another chance so I'll continue watching. I've been told that the show picks up and I hope they're right.

For more info on the show, visit www.mtv.com. New episode of Washington Heights airs next Wednesday at 10pm EST.
