While Sorority Girls stuck me as a little bit more genuine I guess. Even though the American Girls did seem pretty scripted- so you never know then really if that was them. I don't know i just liked it better were as Sorority Life I didn't. I'm sure they are similar in some ways though, I think the ideas though behind the shows sound a bit different.

I think over all I'll probs just watch it Tuesday when it airs and see how I feel.. I hate my addiction to Greek Life.
Not. At. All. Everything about the show was contrived and trite. Each of the five "sister" are (active or alumnae) members of NPC organizations. So there is no existing "Sigma Gamma" for anyone to join. When they talk about the way certain girls dress or act, they use trite phrases like "SNSG!!" (So Not Sigma Gamma).

They were really condescending during their "rush" and they later joked about how bad they were going to haze the girls. I'm sorry, but melting ice on your chest and being blindfolded and dumped in the woods in your pajamas? Sorry, 1989 is calling.

It's entertaining, but anything but sincere.

I would say, however, that I believe the pledges developed real friendships among themselves. There were at least a few who I thought were really heartbroken to leave, and money or fame had nothing to do with it.

I think when this show airs in the US things may get a little interesting for some of the American girls who appeared in it. Now they'll be seen where they and their affiliations are easily recognizable. I can't imagine HQs being amused by some of their behavior.
