I liked that about season 1, how in every episode, he would reference to a major he once had. Sugarhill, I think it's ok that Heath and Calvin don't have great chemistry. It gets annoying on shows when every couple has that "they should be together" feel. In real life, especially in college, you see a couple and think "really, they're together?" Plus, it seems like this is a first for both of them. There's bound to be awkwardness.

She was just as bubbly in that show as well but far less annoying. Is anyone else hoping that with Frannie as the new nemesis to Casey that Rebecca will become more likable? I would love for her to be on Casey's side and still maintain her "do you know who I am?" attitude. I thought she looked familar. She lost weight! I would like to see Rebecca on Casey's side too. I watched the show for the first time yesterday and watched the premiere of season 2 this morning. I loved it! I am hooked on it already. I liked Spencer Grammer when she was on As The World Turns but I think I was the only person that did. lol! I can't decide who I want Casey with but right now I am leaning towards Evan.

I about as far from a frat boy as you can possibly get, yet I still find myself liking the show -- not because of the premise, but in spite of it. Evan could have easily become a stereotype, but I find myself understanding him and maybe even liking him -- even though I WANT to hate his guts. Some of the ancillary characters are over the top -- Calvin is too perfect, Rebecca too much of a bitch, Dale too much of a joke. Now that they have a second season (and hopefully more!), I hope we see these characters get fleshed out a little more. I think that's what MovieGirl was getting at with Casey and Rebecca becoming allies -- maybe we'll see that Rebecca is more than just a spoiled little witch (and I won't hate her so much). I'd like to see more of the ZBZ/Tri-Pi rivalry, too. The frats had that beer-pong thing. Maybe the ZBZs and triPis could have an inter-sorority ticke fight? I'm just sayin' it would make for some memorable television. . . . _

I love the references to things us "older" (past college years) viewers can get. Last season there were references to the Bill and Ted movies, the 80's song (867-5309), Planet of the Apes and Star Wars. It seems like sort of a subtle way of widening the target audience. Veronica Mars did that sometimes and it really made the show a lot of fun because the references were so random and spaced out enough that if you didnt get it, you probably wouldnt feel like you missed anything but if you did get it, it added an extra level of humor to the show. So kudos to the Greek writers for that as well and I hope there's more of it this season.

I LOVE this show! I didn't even know that Jen K. was lonelygirl15, but I was glad they wrote her out, to be honest. As much as I HATE Evan, I really like his character and do hope that he sticks around. Cappy and Casey MUST eventually end up together. If Rebecca is going to stay on the show (which it seems she will), she and Casey have to eventually make up. I get tired of thinking about all the ways that Rebeccas is going to try and undermine Casey. Right now, I feel like Cappy should know better than to get with Rebecca, because she could EASILY be banging him, and then somewhere down the line, reveal that relationship to Casey to show that she's now gotten between BOTH of Casey's loves. I think that Calvin is probably the weakest character on the show. Other than his gay thing, he's got, like, NOTHING going on for him. NEED MORE BEAVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh, and I love how The Plain White T's have been in like half of the episodes. Best band ever.

I agree with Calvin's decision to stay with OmgIWanna Dhi, but it pains me every time Evan wins, even if it's a small victory. And there's no way Evan was the one who called the cops on the party. My guess is it was the dude who Evan kicked out of the fraternity.

As much of an asshole as Evan can be, I don't think he called the cops on Cappie & Co, because like he said, if they get caught, everyone in the Greek community is fucked, so it doesn't make any sense to do it. At first I thought it was maybe one of the Tri Pi girls, but now it makes more sense for it to be someone not in any of the sororities and fraternities.

I dont know why but I can sort of see her having this secret psycho-angry side to her that she hides behind a bubbly facade. Maybe she secretly wants to get the ZBZ's shut down. Just a random theory.

I respect the way he stood up for Calvin, and I can understand how he would be tired of Rusty's anger and irritated with Cappy's disrespectful attitude towards the Greek system. I can't relate with Evan, but he obviously takes the Greek system seriously and is trying to save it. Cappy's "who gives a shit, let's party" attitude toward the administration's coming down on the frats would piss me off, if I were Evan. If Cappy doesn't care about the Greek system, why is he part of it? I think it's a good example of why I love this show -- all the characters have depth to them. Last night, I found myself being irritated with my favorite characters (Rusty and Cappy) and sympathizing with the guy I want to hate (Evan). On a different note, Casey seemed to be showing more cleavage than usual -- I, for one, hope this trend continues!

Those darn writers, I think they might've done all of that on purpose!? Really cool what Evan has done for Calvin...and I definitely got the same impressions and feelings about Cappie and Rusty...

Sometimes I dont want to like him (like when he publicly de-sweethearted Casey) but he's much more realistic a character than you would expect on a show like this. He seems like a decent guy who just doesnt want to be manipulated or used. Unfortunately, Frannie wasn't totally wrong about Casey's intentions (re: getting back together with Evan to help get her to the ZBZ presidency). The problem was, while Casey obviously does see the value in being with a guy like Evan (handsome, popular and well connected), she does seem to actually care for him too. Evan's probably just extra-sensitive about people not being able to see past his last name. That's why I'd like to see him and Casey get back together. I feel like if they're going to break up sometime down the line (so Casey can be with Cappie since we all know that has to happen), they should break up for the right reasons. Right now I think they're broken up for the wrong reasons.

But (in my experience) in real life, girls like Casey end up with guys like Evan.

But, my guess is it'll be Evan. They would've written him out of the show (other than select guest appearances) if all he was going to be was "Casey's serious bofo". Though, I wish I were as cool as Cappie.
