    The new show on TBS. They've been advertising it for weeks.

    Six minutes in, it sucks.

    I am not shocked.

    Interesting in a way that this is supposed to be the '80s version of "Animal House", 20-plus years after the fact. Just like "Animal House" was set in 1962 and created in 1982.

    Then again, Doug Kenney (RIP), Ivan Reitman and Co. aren't to be found anywhere around this.

    It lost me with the stunning lack of basic details.

    Pledges don't get to wear letters. They wear pledge pins and they may carry paddles, but letters are forbidden until initiation.

    If they're in ROTC, can they wear pledge pins on their uniforms?

    Then again, That 80s Show also sucked out loud. Maybe the era isn't conducive to intentional comedy

    Not sure. We didn't have any ROTC/Corps of Cadets guys in my fraternity.

    Animal House came out in 1978.
    C'mon, this is TBS, you thought this was going to be good?
    After Frank TV?

    It was terrible. I may give it one more show..but I doubt it.

    Depends on the frat. Some do allow letters on pledges.

    I watched for five minutes and only because I was watching the 9:30 p.m. Family Guy.

    It sucked.

    You couldn't tell it sucked from the commercials?

    My bad, Patchs. Brain fart.

    General point remains, however.
