just finished rise of the pink ladies and there better be a season 2 because i need more of the friendships within the pink ladies and t-birds. we got a lot of the jane/olivia friendship and the nancy/cynthia friendship but i want more of the different pairings. also that once scene in ep10 with jane and gil was adorable and I hope we get more of that friendship and the other ones. really excited to see how hazel fits into everything. also, this may be an unpopular opinion, but I think after some soul searching buddy could be really good with her and I honestly thought they had way more chemistry than hazel and wally. and speaking of buddy, this also may be an unpopular opinion, but I think a friendship between him and richie would be hilarious. we need more of men getting over their toxic masculinity

#and i almost forgot the scene with cynthia and gil during the storm #there are so many great friendhsips between all the different chracters that i hope we get to explore more #grease #grease: rise of the pink ladies #rise of the pink ladies #rotpl #jane facciano #olivia valdovinos #nancy nakagawa #cynthia zdunowski #richie valdovinos #gil rizzo #potato #shy guy #hazel robertson #buddy aldridge #pink ladies #t-birds

Family dynamics and drama in S2 rotpl

i would like to see more family stuff in S2.

Valdovinos sent their son to military school and allowed Olivia to marry a teacher after locking her inside all summer. How do they feel about their parents after all that?

Gil's mom seems to resent his dad, which Gil seems uninterested in hearing about (who would want to hear their mom badmouth their dead dad). Meanwhile Gil is the "man of the house" and feels the pressure, even though his mom dotes on him.

Cynthia has her mysterious mom and a dad that we know nothing about ( except he is likely a mechanic).

in the facciano family we have the mom trying to pass for white/ assimilate, the daughters who are proud of their Puerto Rican heritage, and the dad who doesn't seem to eager to get involved in their conflicts.

there is shy guy and his dad who pressures his son to box.

Potato 's family deals with a mentally ill veteran dad. His mom apparently has little understanding, or at least chooses to use shouting as a motivator. Meanwhile potato chooses to help and cheer his dad up and look after his siblings.

Then we have the nakagawa family who survived the interment camps and yet seem to be doing fine. Apart from the parents being somewhat scared of their own daughter.

lets not get started on Susan's and buddy's families.

Fic prompt: The Pink Ladies and the T-Birds become convinced that Cynthia’s dating someone and won’t leave her alone until she tells them so she freaks out and tells them she’s dating Buddy

Immediately afterwards she rushes to Buddy’s house and pretty much goes “hey so I know that I’ve told you over and over again how much I hate you but can you pretty please pretend to date me” and he’s like ok fine but you owe me

And so the entire thing is just those two fumbling around trying to convince everyone that they’re dating (which is much harder for Cynthia than it is for Buddy) and the two of them becoming actual friends

#cynthia essentially begs lydia not to be mad but she just thinks it’s the funniest shit #like none of the thespians believe it for a second and some of them are like ‘it’s the heteronormativity talking sweetie’#including mr vaughn #he’s like ‘I did not set you and lydia up day after day just for you to do this #eventually there’s like a messy coming out scene where cynthia tells buddy the real reason she’s pretending to date him #and maybe you could throw in a little bit of wally/buddy in there too with buddy going up to cynthia and having a Bisexual Meltdown #anyways ignore me I’m just spouting nonsense at this point #rotpl #grease rotpl #grease rise of the pink ladies #rise of the pink ladies #cynthia zdunowski #cynthia rotpl #thesbians #lynthia #buddy aldridge #buddy rotpl #i think they would definitely sit down together and bitch about sports #cynthia would absolutely destroy buddy at football #cynthia and buddy friendship supremacy #supportive buddy supremacy #protective friend and boyfriend buddy supremacy

They Canceled Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies. Here’s a petition to switch it to another platform and save it.

Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies portrays a great level of diversity that is hard to rival in modern television. Characters from all ethnicities, sexualities, and social status are represented. It has an extremely dedicated fan base, but Paramount has made the decision to cancel the series and remove it show from their platform in the next week, essentially making it impossible to watch. This means that those involved with the show’s creation and production get no further compensation for their efforts. It is a tax write off for the company.

Additionally, ROTPL is (currently) destined to fall into the bin of “great sapphic representation silenced”, which also includes Everything Sucks(2019), I Am Not Okay With this(2020), and many others.

Aside from signing this petition you may also email and submit suggestions to alternative streaming platforms (such as Netflix, Hulu, Max, and Amazon Prime Video) to uptake the mantle. Other series to face cancellation have been saved in this way, notably the sitcom One Day at a Time(2017), which was initially removed from Netflix but later transferred to PopTV to finish its entire run.

Please do not let Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies die. Many of the cast have been extremely outspoken in their support of its renewal for a second season, and have been brought much grief by this sudden choice. The writers, actors, and producers should not be faulted and punished for their beautiful work, especially when ROTPL had only finished its first season 2/3 weeks before this sudden news. Revelation of its removal is frankly ridiculous, all things considered. Remember to Think Pink!

wow okay when i saw people saying they were disappointed in Olivia I was thinking that Olivia reveals Susan slept with Buddy first and then Susan reveals the whole thing about Mr. Daniels but.

But no Olivia tells Susan she can’t come to the dance and then Susan reveals it first. And the thing is my heart hurts for both of them and i understand where they’re coming from. Susan is trying so hard and her mother is absolutely not helping. And seeing her efforts at being better and making friends not going so well, it can be frustrating for her.

She’s entitled to her feelings of hurt and upset, but so is Olivia for not trusting Susan right away. I see so many takes on it being a “jealousy” problem and sure, okay, it may be jealousy but that’s not all of it.

Olivia’s suspicious are founded in rational behavior- Susan has hurt Olivia’s friends. Susan is a privileged white girl in the 50’s and Olivia is not.

And neither is Jane. Just as Jane is entitled to her forgiving Susan, Olivia is entitled to her not doing so. And above all that, they’re teenagers. They’re people. Nothing is black and white. People contain multitudes, and the characters in the show are no different. People and characters have flaws.

It’s time that gets accepted instead of picking up the metaphorical pitchforks and demonizing characters (or people) for the choices they make or for feeling emotions and making mistakes. Especially not children.

Cynthia made a mistake. And she hurt both Shy Guy and Lydia. she’s hurting too.

Shy Guy is hurting. Richie is hurting. Jane is hurting. Gil is hurting. Lydia is hurting. Buddy is hurting. Susan is hurting. Olivia is hurting.

Hazel and Wally, two incredible characters who have feelings for each other are hurting.

If you are going to pick up your pitch forks and attack characters for the choices they make attack the adults. Mr. Daniels is the one in the wrong for initiating a relationship with his student, casting her as the temptress who “pushed him into it” and then initiating a relationship again. Olivia was groomed. It is not on her.

Attack Susan’s mother then, who is a total piece of shit. Not the children

I understand not wanting conflict or being worried about the consequences but. That’s kinda how a show progresses

Episode 9: You’re Dropping Out of RYDELL.

We finally got a Shy Guy name drop!!! Edward! I love him. I am so glad they talked it out and Cynthia apologized.

Someone said what if he’s gay, and honestly I can see it. We love to see wlw mlm solidarity. (Someone said wlw mlm hostility last week and I cried laughing because #accurate)

Nancy’s plot line this whole episode.. girl I have been the one trying to keep friendships together, I am so glad it was mostly successful for you. I’m glad she didn’t go back to her old friends because she already has three best friends. “I’m in love with our friendship” me too

Now she and Potato need to actually have a conversation, but I have a feeling they will resolve things amongst themselves.

SOMEONE ARREST THAT CRAZY, PERVERT AND GET HIM AWAY FROM MY 16 YEAR OLD CHILD PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

Jane and McGee 🫶 girl power fr

Cynthia and Gil: I’m having feelings I don’t want them. Have a beer. 😭😂

Buddy acknowledging that none of this would have happened if he had JUST BEEN HONEST

SOMEONE ARREST THAT CRAZY, PERVERT AND GET HIM AWAY FROM MY 16 YEAR OLD CHILD PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

Go Hazel, always having the right words for Buddy.

Glad Buddy stood up for Susan. The moment in the home ec room was really sweet.

Cynthia and Jane and Nancy made up good!!

THE SONG THEY ALL SANG TOGETHER WAS SO GOOD I MISSED THEM ALL SINGING TOGETHER

Olivia, girl, if you have to ask yourself if you are just afraid of being lonely, the answer is probably yes, just TALK TO YOUR FRIENDS

We got like halfway through the episode without a song and I was so confused lol.

Nancy’s vision thingy in the Frosty Palace was very much an homage to Frenchy’s, and I loved it.

The girls comforting Jane at the end 😭🫶

Jane’s sad puppy dog eyes at Olivia in her house, I know what you are.

For the finale, here’s what I think will happen: they are going to try to disrupt the wedding process, someone is going to get richie, Nicholson is going to decide that Buddy and richie should stay at RYDELL in some work around “I’m so smart” way, Lydia and Cynthia are going to talk!!!, Hazel and Buddy are going to have/ talk about their little moments? (I want someone to acknowledge them because I want to like them, but at the same time, it’s Buddy), Susan and Olivia convo???

I can’t believe there’s only ONE more episode

There was a criminal amount of Richie this episode. (But that’s better than the creepy CGI superimposed one from 1.08)

THIS EPISODE RUINED ME!

Richie Valdo-fucking-vinos. My BOY!

The hope in him. The admittance and apology of him being wrong and hurtful. The way he makes way for even BUDDY to say his piece! He doesn't pressure her for an answer! How he immediately starts to clean up his act!

God, I was wrong about a few things in this episode but I am sure as hell pleased about the things I did get right!

BUDDY! TAKE. FUCKING. NOTES! I Look forward to Buddy's villain ark/downward spiral. I will not lie, his song was good...

one of my fav ongoing jokes in the show is how openly cynthia hates buddy and how he literally just accepts this and is perfectly normal towards her

#like it’s so funny???#when he mentions maybe auditioning for hazel and she hits his broken arm with her script 😭#and is all ‘YEAHH ps you suck and i’d kill you in an instant but audition for the play’#and then that one scene where they finish their rehearsal playing lovers and it ends and cynthia just says ‘i still hate you’#and literally all he says in response is ‘okay’ like IT MAKES ME LAUGH EVERY TIME #it’s so funny #grease rise of the pink ladies #rise of the pink ladies #grotpl #rotpl #cynthia zdunowski #buddy aldridge
