Samantha 'Sweetheart' Giancola was the only cast member who didn't return for MTV's revival of "Jersey Shore," dubbed "Jersey Shore: Family Vacation," but she definitely paid attention to Thursday's premiere on Twitter.
Though she didn't tweet much about the show herself, her the tweets she liked were very, very telling.
Why Sammi Sweetheart Didn't Want to be Involved in 'Jersey Shore: Family Vacation' (Exclusive Details)
View StoryWhile the show was airing on the East Coast, Giancola tweeted out a message of support to just one of her former costars: Deena Nicole Cortese. "I love my @DeenaNicoleMTV ♥️," she wrote.
She then went on a liking spree, sending love to a ton of tweets with shady references to both the show and its cast. Below are just a sampling of the messages she thought were worth some attention:
Good 4 you... they went back to the show cause in the last few years, none of them did anything worthwhile.. best thing u ever did was to move on...heard the show was stupid and their all moving in slow motion now, lol... good luck🙏 pic.twitter.com/LwgL8gjNgS

@SammiSweetheart girllll...why were they so shady😎🌳 tonight. Damn they miss you. Lol! I know you got to be so unbothered. Ronnie feeling some type of way I guess. That what happens when you do a good person wrong. #ByeFelicia
@PinkLadyBB
The amount of times they were talking about @SammiSweetheart, she pretty much was on the show 🤣 She should get some sort of salary for that #JSFamilyVacation
@nikkaayyx
Ronnie is literally the last man I would ever associate with on planet earth!!!!!!! @SammiSweetheart is a genius for not getting herself mixed up with that dude again!!! #jsfamilyvacation
@suppppmorgan

@meiammartin
Low key (high key) disappointed that @SammiSweetheart isn't on Jersey Shore: Family Vacation 😐😕
@richellelounder

@yeahhtayler
@DeenaNicoleMTV good for you sticking up for someone who wasn't able to be there to defend herself.Ron is still exactly the same,and no way does @SammiSweetheart new man looking Ron? He's better looking, you to girl get yourself a real man who can take care of you @JSFamVacation
@ashpeanut_24
@SammiSweetheart you made the right decision. 100%
@akeyachicago
Clearly you made the right choice avoiding the reunion. Trashing someone you were once friends with on tv is messed up. Keep doing you and focusing on the positive. 👌🏻
@LowKey_NoPresha
Don't care what anyone says -@MTV took a dump on @SammiSweetheart
@KeNt2DaIZO

During the two-hour global premiere event, Sammi did make an appearance, as a life-size doll that even said her infamous, "Raaahhhn, staaahhhp" quote. While Ronnie grossly asked, "If I have sex with [the doll], is that still cheating?", Snooki and Deena defended her decision to not return during the episode.
In an interview with E!, Deena said she told Sammi about the doll before the premiere. Her response: "She was like, 'That's just weird,'" Deena explained. "Me and Sam are super close, so as soon as I got home, I said, 'Listen girl, there's a Sammi doll in the house,'" she continued. "She was like, 'I'm not surprised.' She knows how it works and I think she's going to deal with it pretty well."
When we caught up with the cast for "TooFab's On the Rocks" series, they all chimed in on her absence as well. See what they had to say below!
