Okay, has anyone else been watching this show? And I thought that the GIRLS were catty!

Apparently the fraternity featured on the show has been suspended due to hazing allegations that were aired during the third episode:

Are there ANY reality shows without scandal these days?!

Yeah, I watch it. It just reminds me of why I hated boys in college. Especially the way they treat girlfriends. The "brotherhood" seems very gay to me, especially the one episode where the brother was upset with one of the pledges, b/c he was hanging out with a table full of women, rather than his brothers. Uh... yeah.

The situation with Alex and his girlfriend has be on the fence - on one hand, she DOES seems like one of those immature, insecure, control freak 20 year old girlfriend. On the other hand, he seemed perfectly happy with her until his tool "brothers" kept ragging on him about it and telling him how whipped he is. My experience is that guys who harp on guys for being whipped tend not to have girlfriends. Take that as you will.

Apparently some of the guys are now in trouble for breaking into the zoo. Not that I'm condoning their illegal behavior, but it's not the first time that something illegal has happened on an MTV show. I guess the zoo takes breaking an entering a little more seriously than motels do (re: RR S1).

you know i never watch reality shows like "survivor" or "the bachelor" but for some reason i can't get enough of some of mtv's reality shows like fraternity life. with alex, i'm still trying to like him. he just seemed so weak in the beginning with the whole girlfriend thing but now that all that stuff is over he's starting to grow on me a little. my favorite would have to be paul. he's a nice boy and good looking and jarreau has beautiful eyes. hmm...maybe i just like some of the eye candy, not the actual show. either way it cracks me up how stupid they are some time. i'm mean come on, do not perform criminal acts that could possibly air on tv. duh squared.

No! No! No! I don't watch this! I only made it through abuot 7-8 minutes when I tried it. I spent 5 years at University and never sold out. (ooops I meant to say I never pledged a frat.) I had no use for frats when I was that age and sure as hell don't want to watch them on TV. O.K. rant finished.
