Greek‘s stereotype-shattering gay brother, Calvin, is going to literally have his hands full this semester. (Oh, no he di’int. Oh, yes I did.)
Gregory Michael, who honed his boy-on-boy craft during three years on the gay-themed supernatural soap Dante’s Cove, is joining the ABC Family hit as a love interest for Calvin (Paul James), sources confirm to me exclusively.
Michael’s character is described as a genetically-blessed (see pic, left), closeted Omega Chi active who comes out to Calvin — which is all well and good until the two end up rooming together. Sexual tension abounds, as does some serious heavy petting (or whatever it is the kids are calling it these days).
Michael will recur throughout Greek‘s new season, which premieres on Monday, March 30 at 8 pm/ET.
Now that is a whole bunch of yum.
When I was in college, my boyfriend was a hot fratboy who was Bi & kinda looks like Gregory Michael…God, I miss him !! It was all fun & good til the one frat brother who didn’t get along with me, walked in & found me & Frank in bed together on a Sunday morning. Anyone else find it MODERATELY funny though how both Calvin and his new frat bro’s real names are two first names? PAUL JAMES & GREGORY MICHAEL?! That MIGHT almost be their real names, almost sounds like an orgy…but hey, stranger things have happened…
What does this mean for Dante’s Cove? It’s trashy, badly written and badly acted, but it’s campy fun!
When did they have 28-30 year olds in dorms?
I mean honestly at least some of the people on the show look close to the age they play, this guy doesn’t come close.
that we have to wait 5 months between half-seasons for greek is a crime.
what he hell is “greek” ???
Has the gay brother always been on the show? I’ve never seen the show, but I’m interested in watching now.
GREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gay storylines are th reason I stop watching these shows. I’m sick of being slapped in the face with this stuff.
Imagine how gay people must feel to be “slapped” in the face with straight story lines 99.99999999% of the time. It’s time to open your mind and not fear the unknown.
It’s great to seem GM get some work outside of Dante’s, even if it is another gay role (typecasting…). He is a little long in the tooth to be a college fratboy, but it could always be worse.
If they’re going flash some skin in the show, or there’s more Dante’s with him in it, though, let’s hope he hits the gym a bit before filming. He looked a bit, uh, un-toned in Dante’s last season. (I call it Tom Welling disease.)
Most people are straight and have no desire to see two men together (two women?….I’d be okay with.) It’s the reason shows like Desperate Housewives and Brothers and Sisters have fallen off in the ratings, no one wants the gay agenda snaking in.
Sorry, the truth hurts.
Dexter is a moron. As the World Turns has seen an improvement in ratings because of the Luke/Noah romance.
Aww, I hope we still get to see Heath (Zack Lively) though!
Dexter,
You’re wrong about the ratings of Desperate Housewives and Brothers & Sisters. The gay storylines have been part of both shows since they began.
Also, Greek is a show for younger audiences, teenagers, who are less likely to be as prejudiced as you apparently are.
