ABC Family new series: "Greek"

[SoCalGirl]

If the whole series is based on being greek then they likely won't cast it in a completely horrible light. Maybe even something positive could make it on the air!

My friend was telling me about this show -- I think it sounds great. I am looking forward to checking it out.

[a.e.B.O.T.]

Here is what I got from the first episode:

Con: Nerds and Greeks are two different worlds
Pro: Fraternity men are very prevalent in US Politics and the Forbes 500
Con: Fraternity men are ALL hot and party
Pro: Gay men are in fraternities
Con: Sorority rushees are judged on what they wear
Pro: Recommendations are a plus
Con: Fraternities and Sororities give bids for not quality peep reasons, but for cover ups and what looks best on paper
Pro: a president of a sorority is an honor
Con: Bribes are acceptable to give to potential members
Pro: Outback looks delicious (it was a commercial)
Con: Fraternity men are sinners (thats from the confederate roomie)
Con: Social Life= Entire Life
Con: Pledges are lower the the fraternity they are joining (if i had to dress in drag, well it would be over)

Loved the show, loved that Rusty went Kappa Tau Gamma (they seem a lot like my BF's fraternity minus the hazing). No it's not 100% real, but it's awesome tv. My favorite part was the Omega Chi Delta legacy busting out of the Kappa Tau Gamma house after an evening on the Down Low. I died laughing. I also loved the "paddle fight". The actors are great, the story lines aren't TOO far-fetched from reality or veer into the real Greek extremes, so I definitely will continue to watch.

Just like real life.

does anyone know if this movie was filmed on location at a real college campus and in a real fraternity/sorority house?

I guess after watching the past two episodes, I tried to be open minded on the plots. I was actually touched by Cappie's personality, the whole brother/sister thing, and how the brothers in Kappa cared about the pledges. Though on the other hand I really wanted to beat the s*** out of Rebecca.

Maybe come to think about, it may not shine too bad of a light of greek life after all.
