TMZ is confirming that a deal has finally been struck between the cast of Jersey Shore and MTV.

All the cast members are expected to return. According to TMZ, Vinny, Ronnie and JWoww accepted the $10,000 per episode offer. No word on if the other cast members will also be paid the same amount.

Though a deal has been agreed to in principle, lawyers for the cast are still trying to hammer out certain terms of the deal. Apparently, one of the main issues is how many paid club appearances the cast members will be able to do each week. Snooki, Pauly D and The Situation want the right to appear at as many as four clubs and other venues a week ..

As we reported earlier, some of the cast members are able to pull between $7,500 – $10,000 per club appearance.

UPDATE – A MTV Exec confirms the entire cast will be returning for a 2nd season and also reveals it will be filmed at a different location.

“Our audience has fallen in love with ‘Jersey Shore’ and its amazing cast who have really grown together as a family” said Tony DiSanto, President of Programming for MTV. “That bond gives the show its heart, and we’re thrilled to reunite these friends to bring fans more of what they love — laughs, love, drama and of course GTL.”
