Happy Days

Happy Days Cast

Series Description

Happy Days was a 30 minute comedy series on ABC that followed the lives of the Cunningham family who lived in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in the 1950s. Don't forget Fonzie either; the tough on the outside but soft on the inside biker. The soda joints, drive-in restaurants, juke boxes and all the other typical 1950s stuff made Happy Days a unique television experience!

Happy Days Lyrics

Title: "Happy Days"

By: "Norman Gimbel" and "Charles Fox"

Sunday, Monday, Happy Days,
Tuesday, Wednesday, Happy Days,
Thursday, Friday, Happy Days,
The weekend comes, my cycle hums,
Ready to race to you.

These days are ours...., happy and free. (Oh happy days)
These days are ours...., share them with me. (Those days)

Goodbye gray sky, hello blue,
There's nothin' can hold me when I hold you.
Feels so right, it can't be wrong,
Rockin' and rollin' all week long.

Sunday, Monday, Happy Days,
Tuesday, Wednesday, Happy Days,
Thursday, Friday, Happy Days,
Saturday. What a day. Groovin' all week with you.

These days are ours...., share them with me. (Oh happy days)
These days are ours...., happy and free. (Those days)

These happy days are yours and mine,
These happy days are yours and mine,
Happy days!

Happy Days Trivia

Tom Hanks guest-starred on the Happy Days episode "A Little Case of Revenge"

Happy Days was a "spin-off" of a segment on "Love, American Style".

Robin Williams guest-starred on Happy Days as Mork (which later inspired the series on the episode "My Favourite Orkan". This was only Robin's second TV appearance (he had previously appeared on Rowan & Martin's Laugh In)!

Happy Days turned out to be a "spin-off machine" itself. "Laverne and Shirley", "Mork and Mindy", "Out of the Blue" and "Joanie Loves Chachi" were all Happy Days spin-offs.

Mork and Mindy both appeared on the pilot episode of "Out of the Blue". Mork visits his old friend "Random" (An Angel). During the show it's revealed that Ork and Heaven are near each other! "Out of the Blue" only lasted four months.

Fonzie was originally supposed to be called Arthur Maschiarelli. That was Gary Marshall's real last name (The creator of the show). The plan was to have Fonzie's nickname be Mash but it was feared that viewers would be reminded of the 1972 TV show of that name.

Linda Purl ("Matlock" and "First Monday") appeared as Richie's girlfriend "Gloria" in season 2 and then returned to Happy Days in the 10th season to play Fonzie's girlfriend "Ashley Pfister". Ashley was a wealthy, divorced socialite. On Laverne & Shirley the Pfisters were often referred to as the proprietors of many businesses in Milwaukee including The Hotel Pfister, Chez Pfister, and "Pfister Fong's".

Most people are aware of Ron Howard's acting, producing, & directing background, but he also wrote 4 movie scripts! The were Grand Theft Auto, Cotton Candy, Parenthood, and Far And Away!

Happy Days was nominated for 6 emmys but didn't win any. It was nominated for 4 Golden Globes and won one.

Happy Days didn't appeal to the network executives at first but after the huge success of the movie "American Graffiti", the series looked like a much better bet.
