I didn't get the Frasier bit. At first, I started watching this show because I thought that it was going to be a total trainwreck, but now I really like it a lot.

Casey is played by Kelsey Grammer's daughter.

I am still loving this show way too much. The dance outside in underwear had me all ; the "dancing" though...I've seen worse.

Does anyone else get distracted by how much Evan looks like Logan from Veronica Mars? I keep waiting for Veronica to show up and bust them all for hazing.

Not distracted, but it's definitely undeniable -- he totally looks like him.

And I think this show portrays Greek life pretty well. I mean, sure there are things we can all disagree with, but that's not to say I didn't see similar things happen during my time in the Greeks system. I think it brings up the core values of Greek life enough though to balance it out.

There has definitely been worse...but yea :]

I think Evan looks like Sean Astin the guy who played Samwise from Lord of the Rings, or the younger juiced brother in 50 First Dates.

I too expected this show to bomb figuring it was on ABC Family and a desperate plot [I still think its like a Teen Nick show on crack mixed with booze and sex] but strangely it keeps your attention...regardless of how true to Greek life or untrue it becomes.

Two things irk me though:
1. I hate that Rebecca has to be the spoiled one...she's too gorgeous for that role
2. And how Casey can be best sister in the world one minute, and completely 'go away I'm too good for you' the next to Rusty.

I'm so sad this mad me feel old. When I think of Sean Astin my first thoughts are 1) he's Mackenzie Astin's brother and John Astin's son, 2) he's the lead in Goonies and 3) he's the third star of Encino Man.

Oh, but her facial expressions are priceless. She has "bitch" down to a tee.

And I remember having underwear (really, they were bathing suit bottoms) with "Sigma Chi" painted on my butt for Derby Days.... so I actually thought it was hilarious.

Yes, I'm old so I can admit it. ;-)

Me too!

I loved the ending tonight. I thought it was sweet, but I'm still unsure of how sincere Evan is. I also loved how rejected Rebecca looked at the mixer. Just have to wait and see if Evan really meant what he said to Casey!

I expected a trainwreck of a show, but I am actually starting to like it. My fiance kept bugging me to change the channel last night until the Zeta pledges took off their clothes and then he of course asked me if that really happens. (He didn't have greek life where he went to school)

And honestly, I really hate Rebecca Logan.
