* HilariousInHindsight: Lizzi's plea to her ZBZ sisters to snap instead of clap because clapping is disruptive, after a feminist conference in England took it one step further and asked their ladies to use "[[http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/566202/NUS-jazz-hands-clapping-anxiety-feminists jazz hands]]" rather than clap.

* AbsenteeActor: Mainly Dale, but Evan and Rebecca have been known to also go missing for an episode or two at a time. In fact, the only main characters to appear in every episode are Rusty, Casey, and Cappie.
** Anyone outside the main three (and usually Ashleigh) will be absent (without commentary) for random episodes every season. Presumably, this is when these people actually go to class.
** Probably the most egregious example is in "War and Peace", where Lizzi specifically says that ''every'' member of ZBZ must take Frannie back for Lizzi to proclaim the house fit (and finally be gone), and the crux of the episode is whether Casey will welcome Frannie back...except Rebecca is ''not seen at all'' in this episode. It might have been justified that pledges were excluded, except several recurring ''pledge'' sisters were seen at the ceremony.
* EnsembleDarkhorse: Beaver and Heath.

** In 'All About Beav' Beaver briefly 'discusses' ''{{Series/Glee}}'' with a janitor. Beav's actor, Aaron Hill, guested on the show half a year after Greek ended. It becomes HarsherInHindsight as his character [[spoiler: is a homophobic bully that [[DrivenToSuicide drives to suicide]] Glee recurring character Dave Karofsky]].

* FridgeHorror: One of the episodes mentions CRU playing "State" in football. The show takes place in Ohio. That means they played Ohio State, one of the best teams in college football. The result wasn't mentioned probably to avoid the downer ending that would have been their team getting soundly demolished by OSU.

* FridgeBrilliance: Casey sleeping with Cappie in the Pilot, at first it seems to be easy since he's clearly still in love with her, and she doesn't really seem to be the one night stand type. However, as the series progresses you see that Cappie is the person who would be most likely to get to get to Evan, he's unhappy that she did it, but it's the revelation it was Cappie that twists the knife.
