I recently started watching the American TV comedy series, Greek. The show is about college life in Cyprus- Rhodes University in Ohio where the students participate in the Greek system. The series begins with a freshman engineering student named Rusty, who quickly decides he wants to change from being a geek and so rushes to get into a fraternity house on campus. 


To Rusty's advanatage, his sister is Casey Cartwright who is the popular and pretty girl on campus and this helps him get into a fraternity. Rusty really surprises me, he turns out to be a solid pledge at the KTT house which is the Kappa Tau Gamma with his dorky charm. At the beginning nobody even knew Casey had a younger brother and she tries to stay as far away from him as she can as she thinks he'll ruin her image and she wants to become the next president of her sorority ZBZ, Zeta Beta Zeta. However as the series goes on, the two build a great relationship and help each other out. The show is all about brother and sisters, where everyone in the sorority has a big and little brother/sister, as you can see in the YouTube clip below. 



The show also includes the typical drama you could expect at any college and especially when so many girls live together, for example, boyfriends cheating on their girlfriends with one of their little sisters, rich kids and not so rich not getting alone, rivalry against sisters at the sorority, new boyfriends and ex boyfriends getting jealous and of course the typical college parties where they all end up drunk and so many mistakes happen. I must say it took me a while to get into the show but I'm on season 2 now and I'm really enjoying it. It is a humorous TV show which would appeal to a lot of people and I would really recommend people to start watching it!
