Anthony DeVito is probably accustomed to casting notices for roles based on Italian stereotypes, but this one was so bad he couldn’t let it slide. He posted a screencap of it on his Facebook with the caption, “This is real. I give the f-ck up.” The casting notice was seeking white men aged 20 to 40 in New Jersey, New York, and Puerto Rico for a reality series called Ghostfellas.
Seeking real life tough guys, preferably Italian, but open to other types, who believe in ghosts, are fearless, and want to take on the most toughest/violent ghosts in the tri-state area for a new reality show.
We can see it now. Fresh off a victorious ghost hunt in a Brooklyn pizzeria, their loyalty will be put to the test when they’re confronted with a situation which forces them to choose between ghost-hating or mob-respecting when they find what they believe might be the ghost of Lucky Luciano. It’s their “most toughest” ghost yet in a pulse-pounding, canoli-stuffing season finale of Ghostfellas.

Guido Ghostbusters?
I think we’re going to get a lot of mileage out of the word “spook” here.
New York, New Jersey and PUERTO RICO!?!
Are they trying to nab the ever illusive Latino Guido aka “The Latuido?”
The ironic and witty stabs were hilarious until you misspelled pizzeria. After that I was just hoping a guido would pop out and clock you. “ONE SHOT KID!!!!”
The dude on the right in that poster is going to haunt my dreams.
Somewhere in the distance Danger is weeping over his law books for not crafting and cashing in on this gem.
I’m not gonna lie, I’d watch the fuck out of this.
Guy on the right looks like Mickey Rourke and Joe Piscapo had a butt-baby.
“git da fuck outta ere ya mamaluke stugeist!”
this actually sounds hilarious… but it would get old quick. just imagine like if they did an episode of jersey shore where they go to a real haunted house and get scared and all the dumb shit they would say. GET OUTTA HEYAH YA FREAKIN GHOST!!!!!!
CROSS THE STREAMS? FUGGEDABOUTIT! WHAT ARE YA, A DUNSKI?
I will watch this if they only address the ‘ghosts’ as GABA-GHOULS. /BADA-BING
Over/Under on number of ‘ghosts’ they find: 3
Over/Under on number of black people they shoot claiming to be ghosts: 30
you said “situation’ and didn’t put it in quotes! Like I just did…
