ABC Family premieres Greek tonight
ABC Family doesn't get the kind of press that some of their edgier neighbors on the cable box enjoy, but I do appreciate that they make their own original programming, especially their penchant for casting Charisma Carpenter. They could have gone the easy route and given us endless reruns of Reba and Home Improvement. Tonight they kick off their latest entry, Greek. The dramedy (their description) is set at the fictitious Cyprus-Rhodes University and is said to follow the social minefield of the greek system.
I'm guessing a mix of those National Lampoon movies that go straight to DVD, minus the boobs, with a little Falcon Beach style drama added in for angst. It has potential. The show is produced by some ABC Family veterans that are also responsible for Wildfire, Kyle XY, The Division, and The Dead Zone.
If your summer viewing schedule has an opening and you are curious, more info is available at the show site, or the premiere episode is available for free on iTunes. Greek premieres tonight at 9PM.
