Re: reality show on bet
 

I want to know when/what time it comes on, I hate BET, but I graduated from Southern so I WILL watch! (Go Sssss Uuuuuu!)

Well it's set at a college so it probably won't be toooo bad, but I can't say I have a good feeling about this!

I know that last Spring’s Greek show and DST probate was filmed. If I'm not mistaking the entire Spring Fest weekend was filmed. Everywhere you went on campus there were flyers up warning of taping taking place.

Re: Re: reality show on bet
 

I believe it starts on the 28th or 29th of January. I'm a little nervous about the show, but I will be watching it.

I will not lie - I'll watch it because I watch a bi of reality TV. I'm also curious to see what a black reality show will be like ESPECIALLY at a college which has all sorts going on - greek life, partying, school stress, people growing up, cliques, etc.

i ain't gonna lie, i do still watch real world and shows like those. the other ones get on my nerves though.

i will watch it just to see how black folk will act and you know it will probably have alot of drama.

Wait.
A Delta Probate was filmed to be aired on BET?

Excuse my confusion everyone, but what would posses them to let that happen?

A probate/coming out show IS a form of celebration and in many cases just a harmless act of showcasing new members.

Not sure of the context of what took place, but does anyone else get a bit nervous on the airing of the episode?

Holla Back.

I don't think people have any idea...I guess this means that they are going to cover the Classic and homecoming among other things...

:eek: I am scurred...This better work.

that's whats up! ill watch it for the scholarship $. and maybe the show wont be so bad...we'll wait and see...

I really don't see anything wrong with the airing of the probate show, because of the fact that it is done in public in the first place, just as it is done on many college campuses. IMO, I think that by airing the probate show, it will enhance the reality of campus life at an HBCU.

True Soror, it is a public showcase of new members, but personally I think there can be a fine line.

I was made in '99, and personally, MY probate show would have been UNACCEPTABLE to be aired on national TV.

I do think the reality show will be enlightening for others to see-giving a look inside an HBCU and all that comes along with it-, but honestly, I do get a bit nervous on the airing of the episode containing sorors and a so called "probate" show.

I'll be watching... and hopefully it won't be as bad as I'm assuming.

We'll check back in after the airing of the episode, and chat about it then.

Yours in Delta,
