    I love this new show! Comedies are hard to pull off well, but I am happy to say that the FX's new show Greek does it. The characters are SO WELL CAST!!! The lead character has a vunerability that just captures the audience immediately and makes us root for him. There is great chemistry between him and the actress to plays his sister as well as between these two and the sisters I love this new show!

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE TV Executives- LET THIS SHOW STAY ON THE AIR THE WHOLE SEASON and DON'T change its time slot. I'm SO SICK of shows I love beign cancelled within a few weeks b/c the Executives won't give the show the time it may need to find its audience, or because the networks have changed the time slots, or days the shows air and then wonder WHY OH WHY is it not getting the rates they should! Give this smart and charming comedy a chance to bloom!!!… Expand

    This show blows. It wasn't funny, the characters are all paper thin, and frankly, it just sucks out loud. Also why is this on ABC Family. They celebrate sex, underage drinking and just harassment in general. Peice O' crap.

    Coming from the view point of an actual college Greek, the show does not accurately portray Greeks on campus. But even though it is a falso portrail, I cannot help but watch every week. I love the show!

Yes, Dale is often hilarious. However, as the only "Christian" character on the show, I find it pretty offensive that the show seems to forward the stereotype of a Christian from the South. Were these kids to visit any SEC school, they'd find a much warmer, more social, open minded, normal and fair type of Christian Southern student...and more likely than not, Greek affiliated.… Expand

The plot turns and predictable outcomes are the only drive towards progressing the storyline, which seems to be already circular and repetitive, even in the show's second season. Let us also realize the that the content of this show is not entirely appropriate for a family channel appearance. Sex, mainly, is the only theme that drives this forsaken work forward. Thus, considering that everyone on the show has almost already had a conflict in bed with everyone else, maybe we will be fortunate to experience Greek being Black-balled. -Gordan.… Expand

    This show is creative and they have mastered the character development. Now, they didn't do so the first season, but just like Friends and other shows with multiple characters, have that settled into their stereotypical roles and its WORKS.

    I agree with Brendan. I have no children, I'm a university instructor, and certainly no prude. But I really am puzzled at how this show ended up on ABC Family.

But such flaccid provocations only make the channel look like they're running out of ideas. All trashiness aside, the show is just plain dumb, and does offer some explanation (even if it's based in fantasy) as to why my Greek students are regularly the least enlightened and intellectually curious ones I have in my classes.… Expand

    All this show is doing is playing on the stereotype that society has formed about Greek organizations. This stereotype is utterly distorted and this shows is only doing harm when greek organizations are trying to fix this image that America has of them. There are plenty of other ways the "Family" channel can portray college students having "fun and partying" in a non-greek atmosphere.

    This barely shows any semblance of what Greek life is all about (not that its meant to be totally factual). That said, it only damages the Greek communities out there that are working hard to break stereotypes, to become true leaders, and to do good things for their communities. They also spelled Greek with two Sigmas, which just annoys the hell out of anyone wearing letters.

    Engaging throughout with genuinely likable & unique characters, each with their own flaws & idiosyncrasies, it's not hard to get into "Greek" and admire its fast-paced dialogue and (usually) fine acting.

They would rather dumb us down by nailing us over the head with what certain characters feel/think instead of just letting those characters BE themselves, without cheesy over-the-top dialogue that they would NEVER utter, just so we get exactly what's going on. This writing flaw is seen most visibly with Cappie. They want so badly for him to be "cool" and "hip" that 50% of the time it comes across as forced and obnoxious. Not his fault - he's a fine actor - but Casey is one of the most likable characters on the show because they let her be a chill, relaxed, normal girl without all of those contrived lines.… Expand

    For starters Greek is not such a soap opera as it's described . It's quite different from the other shows, but still i have noticed that in the show mistakes are objectively understood like the friends are all therapists.
    In real life its much more cruel and unforgiving , but i suppose it has a great view on ''Out side world''.
    And it's quite hilarious and fun to watch.

    Greek is bound-and-determined to retain focus on its core cast, even if some of the machinations to make that possible come across as slightly contrived and belabored.

    Greek lacks the acidic one-liners that mark great satires like Heathers, but it strains against its conventional boundaries just enough to be enticing.

    Greek is much more than artful manipulation of marketing strategy. The premiere has several surprises even as it dares you to pigeonhole any of these characters. The talented young ensemble cast works hard to sell the stories and mostly succeeds.
