Zap2it's 2007 Guilty Pleasures: Greek
ABC Family

I generally find college- and Greek-themed movies rather annoying because it seems like everyone had more fun than I did. Study? Why do that when you can wear a bedsheet toga or perform panty raids? On the surface Greek is still all about the drinking and partying, but theres a sweetness about the characters dramas that appeals to the girly girl in me. Cappies unrequited love that has made him an unfocused goof, Rustys desire to transcend his geek roots and Caseys growing realization that her perfect life and boyfriend arent what she wants: All of these are just some of the sneaky ways that ABC Family has proven once again that it can create wholesome and educational stories without giving up the entertainment.

On the surface "Greek" is still all about the drinking and partying, but there's a sweetness about the characters' dramas that appeals to the girly girl in me. Cappie's unrequited love that has made him an unfocused goof, Rusty's desire to transcend his geek roots and Casey's growing realization that her perfect life and boyfriend aren't what she wants: All of these are just some of the sneaky ways that ABC Family has proven once again that it can create wholesome and educational stories without giving up the entertainment.
