A Greekap for the Geekaps

Sorry, the title doesn't make any sense, but I wanted a rhyme and I'm a geek, so there ya go.

So Monday night, my sister calls me and asked me if I watched the Greek season premiere. Oh yeah, FYI, it's totally crap to call it a season premiere, since it's a 10-episode arc and there was just another season from March-June, but that is neither here nor there. However you want to look at it, there was a
new episode of Greek on this Monday. And I had no idea it was coming. I am totally out of the ABC Family loop. So I freaked out on the phone and called my mom to record it. Fortunately, last season, I set the DVR to record any new episodes of Greek, so I'm all set. I watched it that night and wahoo! My show has returned.

Rusty is all in love with Jordan, which is cute, but I still kind of don't understand that relationship. I learned in Psych AP that relationships work better if both parties have equal levels of attractiveness. Now I know that Harry and Charlotte made it work, but I think that Rusty and Jordan need to mention it, instead of pretending that she isn't 10 times as hot as he is. Even with her 70s feathered hair.

But even despite his hot girlfriend, Rusty isn't happy because he's failing out of school. Boo hoo. Sorry, I know that l
ooked sarcastic, but it really does suck that he is failing. He works it out somehow. I'm still a little fuzzy on how, but I guess CRU is pretty lenient on due dates.

The part of the episode that freaked me out the most was probably Dale's broken virginity pledge. Seriously, Dale! Clark Duke was in the movie Sex Drive, where he played this cool sex-crazed dude, but I will always see him as my precious, virginal Daley. Virgin no more. But like, when he asked his landlady/girlfriend to marry him, I totally LOLed. Remind me to never use lol again. That is embarrassing.

Okay the Dale sex probably freaked me out on equal parts as Rebecca making out with my beloved Fisher/Hunter/Gatherer. Ashleigh was just so content with her adorable boyfriend, and he seemed so devoted. I mean, they never really got any story lines after his whole blue man scenario, but I still liked the idea of them. Maybe just because I adore Ashleigh and I thought his character
on Rockville CA was completely Seth Cohenesque. How could Rebecca do that to Ashleigh?!?? She is legit her only friend and she is so good to her! I'm pissed. And Fisher/Hunter/Gatherer is just standing there all faux-obliv.

I was beyond confused when Rebecca had Evan send her the flowers, because I assumed that the two of them had gotten together in the finale. It took me a while to catch on that she was just using him as a cover. But I laughed really hard when the ZBZs were trying to guess who Rebecca made out with and they were like " Oh was it (insert female name here)? Are you a lesbian again?" Ah, I love it when shows don't forget. Because as Seth from Superbad says, people don't forget.

I feel no need to write about Casey and Cappie or Calvin and hot gay roommate, because that is all pretty obvious. It'll happen eventually.

I would much rather end this by writing about how Greek had TWO spots on EW.com this week. One in the Ausiello files, with spoilers about how Casey will be in a committed, long-term relationship with either Cappie or Evan (Cappie) by the end of the ten episodes. The other was in a photo gallery of the best fictional Greek houses, pairing my ZBZs along with Revenge of the Nerds and Animal House!!! Okay, lame ones like Steve's frat from 90210 or the sorority from Sorority Boys were on there too, but my show has made it onto the legit pop cultural scene! Wahoo!

Until next time, Sandy
