 "Opa!" - (Greek) Exclamatory called out when people are enjoying a performer, dancers or singers, men or women. Loosely translated it means, "You go!"

 That's on TV now.  Apparently, it's not very good.  I can't say as I've never watched it.
 The movie was cute.  Not as hilarious as people were making it out to be, but not bad.

 If you've ever been to a Greek Festival, there's alot of this shouting. Basically what Zoner said, it's just a chant that is for mostly dancing or celebration. |
