PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"The Happy Days Reunion Special" |
Relieved that the entire cast is still alive, and therefore we were spared any weepy tribute montage, I watched a bit of this show last night. They showed part of the pilot, filmed, to my surprise, PRIOR to American Graffiti and it was "Summer of 42" comes to television. The pilot was not picked up, but it was aired as a segment of "Love American Style." "Love in the 50s." Weird.
Also, the network HATED Fonzie's jacket and Gary Marshall had to really battle for it. He got the powers that be to agree that the jacket could be worn, but ONLY if Fonzie's motorcycle was in evidence. So Marshall told the scriptwriters they could never had Fonzie appear WITHOUT the motorcycle. Later, of course, Fonzie could have arrived on the set sporting nothing but a perky fig leaf and ABC would have been fine with it.
Marion looked pretty good; Bosely looked frail; Joanie looked HORRIBLE, but then she never was a real stunner; Chachi's frankly forty; Ralphie's a greyhead, not a redhead, now; Potsie looks pretty good. Anyone else see it?

7. "Hey Ginger...Sit on it!" |
I saw it! But where was Al? They never really even mentioned him but they brought out the two Chucks!Ralph was always my favorite. Looking back at this show I just loved it! But now it looks so corny! I don't think a show like that would ever fly today. I tell ya Joannie would never had been cast if it were today as well. I really do enjoy Henry Winkler, there seems to be something very nice and real about him. My friend sat next to him at a Broadway show and started to talk to him and he offered her and her husband a ride to the train station in his limo. She said he was so nice. What I like best about this special was that Gary Marshall hosted it. Seemed more genuine than some current day celebrity fanning over them.
