Everyone who is anyone -- or at least the millions of "Jersey Shore" fans -- recognizes the name Pauly D, the cool dude from Rhode Island who is a successful DJ. Outside of the party-all-the-time "Shore" house, Pauly D still maintains the swagger, the distinctive hairstyle and the all-season tan, but he is also a man with a serious career plan. "The Pauly D Project" captures the world-famous housemate as he attempts to transition to world-famous DJ, working with 50 Cent's record label and touring with Britney Spears, among other projects, photo shoots and public appearances. Along for the ride are his buddies from Rhode Island, the guys who were with him when he was a struggling DJ, including road manager Michael "Biggie" Morgan, security guard Gerard "Big Jerry" Gialanella and nightclub manager Ryan Labbe.

It'd almost be sweet if you could keep yourself from laughing. And from beating your head on the coffee table over the fact that this trash is on TV in the first place. Go to Full Review David Hiltbrand Philadelphia Inquirer 06/19/2020
The activities the guys engage in are fairly similar to the Jersey Shore routine, except there's room service, someone else seems to do their laundry for them, and there's no Situation drama. Can I get a "Yeah, buddy"? Go to Full Review Verne Gay Newsday 06/19/2020
B-
"Pauly D" has the usual setup scenes that feel about as authentic as Kim Kardashian's wedding... But what does seem genuine is the cast of characters. Go to Full Review Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette 06/19/2020
It's a generally less salacious show than Jersey Shore... There's also an earnestness and sweetness to Pauly, particularly when he interacts with his father. Go to Full Review Mark A. Perigard Boston Herald 06/19/2020
Nothing hilarious ensues. Watching someone revel in his success is not nearly as interesting as watching someone try to earn it. Go to Full Review Matt Roush TV Guide 06/19/2020
This misbegotten, instantly forgotten Project had a very curious effect on me that I wouldn't have imagined was possible. It made me miss HBO's Entourage. For about a minute. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
