Happy Days Appreciation Thread

[Earth 2 Chris]

Another post from me on this never-ending thread but...

...Last night they aired "Welcome Home" parts 1 and 2, with the return of Richie (and Ralph, briefly). I missed the first 15 minutes of it, but I found myself remembering it very well. Clearly a standout amongst the last several seasons.

When I was a kid and first saw this, I couldn't understand why Richie was so mean. Now of course I get it. We've all made sacrifices to keep our loved ones happy. Well-done episode, and the kind of send-off the Richie character should have had in the first place.

So nothing to look forward to now until the end. Maybe they'll surprise us. As I said before, this season is a vast improvement over the last several before it.

At this point I'm just looking forward to the series finale so The Hub can restart again with Season 1

Yeah, my son got hooked on Happy Days when they moved it to 8 and 8:30. 10 was past his bedtime. He missed all the good episodes! Now he'll get another chance.

I need to find where I can watch it online.

That other channel ME TV is also airing Happy Days. Check your local listings if you get this channel.

Anyone remember this:

Back when HB would make ANYTHING into a cartoon.

^ That freakin' dog.....

Yeah HB hit all of the Gary Marshall properties at that time...HD, L&S and M&M...

I wonder where Anson Williams was? He got the shaft again!

I vaguely recall this. I remember wishing it was just a normal Happy Days cartoon. I thought the same thing about the Dukes toon, which started with Coy and Vance and ended with Bo and Luke (and is now on DVD I think).

The site says Fonzie joined the army (!) and became a mechanic on base. I do recall the Private Benjamin-like aspect of the Laverne and Shirley cartoon. I remember Mork had an egg car, that's it.

Yep were in the final season on Hub. I can tell by watching, the show was running on fumes at this point. By next week or so we should be back in season 1. I do wanna see the final episode though and since the Hub cuts up some episodes I wanna see if they show the farewell toast.

[Earth 2 Chris]

Well, the Hub is back to season 1. They showed the first two episodes last night. "Arnold's" was "Arthur's" in the premiere!!!

They skipped the finale! The last new episode they showed on Tuesday night concerned Fonzie moving out of the Cunningham's apartment. As much as I'm ready to be out of the later years, I did want to see the finale again.

Oddly enough, they showed the series finale of "The Wonder Years", broken up over two nights even!
