NEW YORK, NY (July 14, 2011) - MTV's hit reality series "Jersey Shore" will take a bite out of Monday night, as the network today announced that the Season Four trailer will premiere during an all-new episode of its critically acclaimed series "Teen Wolf" on Monday, July 18th at 10p.m. The wait is officially over for "Jersey Shore" fans who have eagerly anticipated the return of television's most notorious housemates to watch them bring G.T.L. to the shores of Italy.
