I LOVE this show. It's nothing like my experience so I can enjoy it like I enjoy all the other shows on TV that sensationalize real things in my life. Like... every show ever made! I'm a TV writing major... and I would kill for an internship on this show. I hope it lasts a long time!

Its not the evil that some of the responses would portray it to be...and like everyone said, its not good enough to last too long.

as an alum, I agree. Things were exaggerated, but that's TV. I've never seen a show focused on high school or college that was accurate, since they all seem over the top.

However, I think some of the spirit is there. I'm not happy with the portrayal of alot of the sorority girls as backstabbers, but nothing is perfect.

I full admit i'm sort of addicted to the show

Kyle,
The best way to influence a network's choice of shows is:
1. Boycott the show...keep the viewer numbers down.
2. Write formal letters to each sponsor of the show. Let them know you will not purchase their product/service if they continue to sponsor inferior media programs.
3. Write a formal letter to the network stating your reasons why you refuse to watch the show.
4. Do not purchase the products of the program's sponsors.

The above was in a consumer advice column in our local newspaper.

i love this show. and the show isnt going to persuade anybody to get drunk all the time or be slutty. we decide that for ourselves. and if evryone is concerned about setting a bad example for younger viewers its not abc familys fault. parents should be monitering the t.v is they have a problem with it. also, the show doest show all the good thing sororities and fraternities do. and it definantly doesnt show what stupid stuff students outside the greek system can also do. so this petition to cancel the show will ggo noo where. greek is an amazing show and the majority of viewers whove seen the show agree.

It is a show, it is make believe. It isn't going to make anyone thing badly of greeks in general, it is for entertainment purposes.
The fact that a petition to have it taken off the air was even started makes me worry that people in todays society are way too ignorant of the law? There is nothing anyone can really do to get the show taken off the air.

It isn't going to effect greeks in a negative way. It isn't going to change potentials opinions of the organizations at your school...and to be honest if it does, do you REALLY want to pledge someone who is so easily persuaded into believing things they see on a TV show?

I love this show and so does my daughter. As a matter of fact, yesterday the cast was at the FSU Bookstore to encourage everyone to register to vote online and offered assistance in the process. My daughter had classes at the scheduled time of their appearance, but some of her sisters attended and were able to take pictures of Cappy for her..lol... I think this is a positive example of the cast members of this show. If you don't like the show, turn the channel.

Well, I must admit that I am addicted. I am constantly checking VZOnDemand for the first episode of the new season! (I can never remember the night the show comes on)
