Oooh ohhh! Did you guys manage to catch 'Grease 2' on 8TV last night? As you know,Grease (the original film with John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John) was a resounding success back in 1978. Four years later, for some reason, the powers that be decided to make a sequel, aptly named Grease 2! As a sidenote - this film was originally going to be called Son of Grease. So glad they didn't do that.

For those who missed it,here's a summary of what the movie was all about:

Set again in Rydell High in the year 1961, we meet Sandy Olsson's gorgeous cousin Michael Carrington (played by the luscious Maxwell Caulfield), arriving at Rydell from England. He is staying with Sandy's parents and will be going to Rydell High school for his senior year. A straight "A" student, Michael is your typical nerd - bookish, quiet, well mannered and the type of bloke your mum would be glad you took home. At Rydell he meets up with Frenchy (again played by Didi Conn) who has promised Sandy that she will look after Michael. Yes, Frenchy dropped out of Rydell High in the first film in order to go to beauty school. And yes, she is back at Rydell as she failed beauty school when she dyed her own hair pink!

And so Michael settles in to life at Rydell, the all-singing all-dancing high school that I wanted to go to as a young child (if only I had known that high school was nothing like the films!). He has his little run-in with the T-Birds, led by Johnny Nogerelli (played by Adrian Zmed who also starred in T J Hooker with William Shatner). The T-Birds consist of Nogerelli, his second in command Goose Mackenzie (Christopher McDonald, also starred in Happy Gilmore and Star Trek the Next Generation), Louis Dimucci (Peter Frechette) and Davey Jaworski (Leif Green). He also meets the Pink Ladies. These are the girlfriends of the T-Birds and consist of Stephanie (Pfeiffer), Paulette Rebchuck (Lorna Luft), Sharon Cooper (Maureen Teefy who also starred in Supergirl and Fame), Rhonda Ritter (Alison Price) and Paulette's younger sister and wannabe pink lady Dolores Rebchuck (Pamela Segall).

Michael falls in love with Stephanie. It is not your typical boy meets girl scenario because Stephanie is a Pink Lady and as such can only "go steady" with a T-Bird. So Michael decides to make some money, get himself a motorbike, and get the girl by becoming a T-Bird himself.

Add to this the typical song and dance routines that are scattered throughout the film and you have to watch to find out if boy gets girl or if he just gets his behind kicked by the T-Birds or by Balmudo (the resident bad-guy, played by Dennis Stewart, who also played Leo in the original film).

Tidbit:Michelle Pfeiffer singing 'Cool Rider' in tight black leather pants! Priceless!
