The intro to the final season of Happy Days
Look how dead everyone's soul looks like at this point. I know that I am supposed to want TV shows to end before they lose their "dignity" but it is fun to see a show come back year after year, and see old cast members leave and have new cast members come in that nobody remembers.
After Ron Howard and Donny Most left the show Anson Williams who played Potsie stayed on the show but without the characters two friends he really had nothing to do. For about the last four years of the show Potsie would come into a room and say something dumb and then one of the other character's would says he is dumb and then Potsie would leave broken hearted and nostalgic for another era.

Two basic rules for "Happy Days" episodes:
ReplyDelete1. If the episode begins with a voice-over stating, "'Happy Days' was filmed in front of a live studio audience", it may possibly suck.
2. If the episode features any scenes at a rebuilt Arnold's (after Chachi's dumb ass burned down the original with his apron), it will definitely suck, unless you really enjoy from about season eight on, where the actors didn't even try to dress or groom in appropriate ways for the time period in which the show was set.
Someone with Chachi's hair around when it was supposed to be like 1959 would get shot.
