- The opening credits, set to the song "Grease," (Grease is the word, it's got groove it's got meaning) depicts a cartoon character who looks like a young Captain Caveman transforming himself into John Travolta with the aid of some hair grease.
- It also shows a cartoon Olivia Newton-John being dressed by birds, deer, and rabbits. Disney's cease-and-desist letter must have been lost in the mail.
- The rest of the credits introduce us to the T-Birds and the Pink Ladies before transitioning to real-life high school.
