In an ordinary world, January would be an ideal time for those who would want to escape the cold, harsh winters for the thrill of just getting to enjoy a cold one on the sandy beach and just wearing your shorts. The mess known as the COVID pandemic has derailed most everyone's travels this time around, but for those who call the state of Florida home, the above opening sentence surely applies.

Since back in 2017, there has been reason for fans of MTV Reality to come to the Sunshine State through the magic of cable: the modern-day versions of two of the channel's legacy series of over a decade ago of Jersey Shore and The Hills, Floribama Shore and Siesta Key, have delighted our winters, and even warmed up a couple summers too. The former has those hilarious characters with a slice of Southern style, fun and heart; the ladder located just an hour away are their cool cousins who love some drama, parties and the sun.

For the past three years, we have enjoyed one or the other's company during a time where the weather in Florida is more than ideal, and last year at this time they both shared center stage during the last months of the old normal. And while the crazy kids of Floribama are rejoicing in one of their own becoming the first to become a parent, the Siesta clique are enjoying themselves in not only their home, but also a new paradise that they're calling their own backyard. And now, there's word on the 'vine that someone else is joining along for the fun in the sun as they do something they've never done before.
