Ok, I found this fun. Maybe a few of you will too.

Actress Susan Dey played on an old 60s show called the Partridge Family.
Turns out, they offerred it to Dey after Olivia Newton-John declined.

A few years later, they were casting for that old musical called Grease.
Turns out they offerred it to Newton-John after Susan Dey declined.

I think they were both beautiful women in their own ways. But the roles thing was interesting.

How about a fun fact about a couple of actors?

James Arness and Peter Graves were brothers.

Leslie Nielson (Naked Gun & sequels) had a brother Eric, who went on to become a Canadian politician.
It was widely reported here that Eric was the one with a sense of humour.

One of my favorite trivia bits was Linda Hamilton's identical twin sister (Leslie) was the mirror's image in the CPU chip removal scene, and was Sarah Connor's terminator 'clone' near the end of T2...

Susan Day would have been terrible in Grease - way too stiff. But she sure was a beautiful girl and woman.
