So I watched the finale of Gossip Girl. I was determined to enjoy it. So, I will get my bitchery out of the way in the first paragraph and then concentrate on squee, no matter what.
After Gossip Girl, I actually watched last week's episode of Greek, and man, this show is *so good*! I cannot even believe how much I love it! I bought the first season DVD. It's great; do not scoff at it being on the Family Channel! It's about a bunch of students in frats/sororities in a fictional college in Ohio (but it's filmed in California, so it leaves me like 'yeah, I grew up in Ohio; it totally is not light-jacket-weather in December'). Now, I have never been in a sorority; my mother was in one, and I made a conscious decision to go to a college with no greek life because I didn't want to deal with my mom pushing me into pledging. So I'm coming at this from a Greek-apathetic, if not anti-Greek, attitude. And I still love it; the characters are fun and funny (even the background characters; I want to marry Beaver). I have found myself actually switching sides in the big Love Triangle, not because the show decided to make one guy an ass and the other a saint, but because both guys are human, and I understand that they both have history and feelings for Casey (the girl in question). Oh, and a lot of people hate Casey at first; I never did, but going on other people's comments, just give her time.Oh, and Rusty, Casey's nerdy little brother who is intent on entering a fraternity, is adorable. And his roommate Dale, the Confederate-flag-hanging Southern Baptist, is a great character in his own right. Watch it! Here! It's all online!
