I'm not saying it can't be ok, but I would much prefer mixers with the ladies in sundresses or any other theme, and the guys in fitted shirts--that's just my preference. I preferred men draped in sheets after a few more dates. :) But, I'm afraid we are digressing from the topic at hand.

Because 1. I have read several of the previews for it, 2. I have seen several of the pictures from the show, and 3. I viewed the website on the show, and did not like what I saw--take, for example, even the picture on the first page. http://abcfamily.go.com/shows/greek/ Tasteless.

Ditto. If you actually think those petitions work, ha! Think again.

If you want to do something more effective, write to the companies who buy ad time during the episodes. Or don't watch at all. If people don't watch, they'll (hopefully) pull out, and no more TV show.

The networks don't care about some silly online petition.

True. Online petitions are silly, most of the time. Not watching it or writing to the company, or someone else in your local, state, or federal government would be much more effective.

wow it's be negative and &*$% all over Kyle day huh?

well whatever, I just found it and posted it. the rest of you can whine and sit back and do absolutely nothing.

I'm not whining. I'm going to watch this show. Then I'll make up my mind.

Whoa dude, I'm not whining about anything, I think the show is ridiculous, too. I'm glad you thought to do something, even if it's an online petition.

While you have all this rage and fire going, maybe you could use it to go to something worthwhile, useful and long-lasting like petitioning the state of Indiana to introduce hate-crime laws.

thanks.

There's a difference between attacking a post and attacking the poster.

For the record, I haven't seen many people whining about it, mainly because most of us have already been through Sorority/Fraternity Life on MTV and PLEDGED. Even though it might have put Greeks in a bad light, it wasn't the freaking end of the world and it eventually the discussion died down. The shows and the book? They're yesterday's news.

If people don't give it more publicity (hi, silly online petition)...I predict that this TV show will also follow suit.

I probably should have prefaced that with a warning like, don't read while eating or if you love kittens.

I have eaten nothing all day before reading that and I still felt some vomit rising up. Maybe the Indiana state legislature could use 20k solo cups.

Just so it's clear, that was a genuine thanks and not a sarcastic one. The internet kind of twists things sometimes.

I think there was a disclaimer on the link you posted anyway.

Maybe Indiana could use the cups - or at least 20k outraged letters.

I figured, I just wanted to be sure. If those men get away with it I don't think I'll rest until there is justice in the world.

maybe if we ignore this show it will go away. it's worth a try.

LOL riiiiiiiiiiight. so they can slap promo stickers on the side of them and pass them out on the street? holla at free advertising.


snaps to that - this needs to be in the "what has GC taught you?" thread.


i honestly think outside our own GC hoopla on the show, the rest of the TV-watching public doesnt give a hoot. can we just watch the first ep and THEN bash it?
