Interesting New Reality show called Sorority Girls

[pearlbubbles]

One of my chapter sisters and I were able to google locate the first episode... There are some things that are a good representation, but overall I think it's a big ol' mess... That, and the next episode looks even worse, in material alone, at the moment.

Yup, that's strange. In NPC-land, there are limits on how many women become new members, but once you're a new member, unless you choose to depledge or you do something really bad, you will be initiated. But "14 pledges enter, 5 new sisters get in, 9 pledges are given the boot" certainly ups the drama factor.

Anyone else reminded of the show "Sorority Life" that was on MTV a few years back?

LOL

Their letters are Sigma Gamma, right? Maybe one of the pledges will do something "un-Sigma-like".

It also wouldn't seem very reality show-like if they let everyone stick around after their recruitment.

Although if it were truly in an NPC vein, the recruitment would have been about half the show, rather than this one episode only.
