The producer of "Jersey Shore" is teaming with Comedy Central for her next partygoing reality show. Sally Ann Salsano's 495 Prods. is shooting footage for a proposed series billed as a more comedic, Southern version of her "Jersey" format. The project's initial blind-casting notice, which included the promising working title "Party Down South," created a stir online a couple of months ago among fans of the MTV hit. Network sources said Salsano and the channel's executives realized that "Jersey" is only a couple of edits from being a flat-out comedy. They cautioned, however, that the intention isn't to do a stereotypical hick show. With the project at an early stage, the network isn't ready to comment officially. Programing executives soon will decide whether to continue, which could mean a direct-to-series order.
