First it was Jersey Shore that outraged many in the Italian-American community, now another MTV reality show is stirring up anger within another ethnic group.

Growing Up Greek, set in Tarpon Springs, Fla., features a group of Greek Americans in their twenties, who embrace stereotypes like breaking plates during a celebration, and engage in heated confrontations with one another.

“I wouldn’t trade being Greek for nothing,” one cast member says in the trailer.

The show, which airs on Dec. 3 at 11 p.m., has been met with much dismay from many Greek Americans who deem it a disgrace to the culture. A petition on Change.org was created calling it a “gross misrepresentation of what it means to Grow up Greek.” The petition has garnered over 4,000 supporters to date.
