I was in college at the time the show was on/ending, and I couldn't tell you back then - and I still can't tell you now - what their names are or what their personalities are like.

As I said before, I don't think there's anything wrong with doing something different than the other chapters (actually, I applaud it), but do you know why the other sororities probably have themes like award ceremonies and talk shows and game shows? Because most people have probably watched at least one award show and one talk show and one game show in their lives. But you probably don't even have to ever watch an entire award show to know that people make ridiculous speeches, their time is cut off, there are montages, a red carpet, and everyone dresses up. And most people know that a talk show has a host and they bring guests on the program. And most people know that a game show consists of questions to answer or games to play, which lead to prizes. And hey, what person has never seen an episode of the Price is Right?! And added bonus: those themes don't require people to know specific characters.
Has a reality show theme been done? You could make it seem like a big drama fest at first, and then show the "reality" of living in the house, participating in rituals, taking part in philanthropic projects, and just being sisters. Just an idea!
And question: Does your skit even have to center around a tv show/genre? If you're going to be different anyway, why not be REALLY different?
