I was a sophomore/junior in high school when this show came out. I was one year away from going to the after football game kegger parties and our school had a 50s dance with the real Platters group. We learned to dance to 50s music in our pe classes. It was a real happening because our teachers were in their prime when the 50s were going on and showed us alot of enthusiasm. It brings back memories by the score
Me too. I watched from Sydney, Australia at 5 o’clock in the afternoon. It was my after school ritual. I grew up on Happy Days, M.A.S.H, Fantasy Island… those sort of shows. It was a great era of television.
ah childhood memories. I had the Fonzi lunchpail. 6-7 years old , at recess we would run around with our hands held up front like we were riding a motorcycle. Ayyyyyyyyyye with a thumbs up !!!!! Happy Days indeed.
Had the T-shirt and the lunchpail! At my mom's place there is an old photo album with a polaroid picture of me posing in front of my bike with my thumbs up à la Fonzi :)
Watched this all the time as a kid. I was so upset when Richie left the show replaced by the actor from Married with children. I forget his name. I think that was him.
The guy with the Fonz is Darrel Maury. He was in a lot of stuff around then. He played Jughead in a couple of Archie pilots and was a lead in the cult classic Massacre at Central High.
LOL,. Ritchie knew Fonzie when he was trying to finish school and wore a windbreaker instead of a leather jacket. This must be an alternate reality flashback.
Nope. Fonzie was in the Falcons when he first met Richie and his pals. After he left the Falcons he wore the windbreaker since obviously he wasn't in the gang anymore. Then later started wearing the plain leather jacket. he was always a high school dropout and they always referenced how Fonzie was in a gang before. That's how he already had his reputation of being tough. This was a flashback of Richie telling the story to Cachi because Cachi joined a gang and Richie was trying to talk some sense into him.
I love how often Happy Days rewrote characters backstories. In a super early ep, they say Fonz ran with the Demons not the Falcons, and they definitely weren't a cut throat gang, they were just guys they went to school with and wore detailed letterman style jackets. Ritchie and Potsie actually beg Fonz to help them join so they can be cool and get girls, and its Fonzie who tries to dissuade them, but agrees. The early eps feel a lot more grounded, and I think the backstories feel a little more real, like Fonz probably was in a gang while he was at school and then cut out when he dropped out, which is pretty normal. That being said these Happy Days eps are fun and it's wacky sure but not bad, I just see the first three seasons or so as a different thing, and enjoy them for different reasons.
I think this is a later (flashback) episode. Listen to the applause when Fonzie walks in. He's already an established (star) character. Pretty sure he was wearing a light blue jacket in the first season.
@ronsilvia8127 did you read what I wrote genius? You could put use toilet paper on the TV screen back then when there was three networks with monopolistic /oligopolistic power. There was no competition so anything worked. Get a life
@RG-tt1ru stop exactly when there was three networks and they had a monopoly they could put anything on TV and people would watch it. There was no cable there's no video rental there was no competition
When they had he “1 2 3 o’clock” song opening and Ritchie’s brother Chuck Cunningham was in it, and had more outdoor shots and was “American Graffiti” like, Happy Days “jumped the shark” long before Fonzie actually jumped the shark. He original show, a spin off from “Love American Style” was supposed to be Ritchie “centric”, but after season 2 decided to make it Fonzie centric. They also had Fonzie wear the windbreaker as they were worried about the leather jacket / gang member connection when the show first debuted and Henry Winkler actually being in “The Lords of Flatbush”, a Brooklyn gang movie, that literally came out the same year as Happy Days.
TV was awful back then with few exceptions. It wasn’t until The Sopranos that tv shows were written and presented like they weren’t trying to insult the viewers intelligence.
All the main actors were under 6’. Mickey Dolenz of the Monkees was one of the finalists for the Fonz role, but at 6’1” he towered over Richie, Potsie and Ralph. The producers ultimately made the better choice going with Henry Winkler.
Co-incidnetally Wilson Pickett was in a Group called The Falcons and it was the name of the Group that Joe Jackson moonlighted in back in Gary, Indiana.
@@jennifertimlin1371 No, in the universe of the show. Grease movie. Did you go "Oh, that actor is 30, so not a teen in the movie at all." Did you complain about the age of the 30 year old actress in Beverly Hills 90910 playing a teen? Not likely :p
@@JoybuzzerX well for your information. I didn’t buy into stupid 90210. The actors were pretty obviously not teens. Dawson’s creek was much closer. Sorry to offend your Fonzie addiction. People can’t have opinions I see. Your need to be offended won out. Congratulations.
@@jennifertimlin1371 No Fonzi addiction. I just know what the shows are going for and I'm able to use my brain to realize it's a show with actors. It's honestly really simple. Yup. Easy.

@@tommyhajimoto6968 haha. it was one of my favorite shows back in the 70s/80s when growing up. They don't make'm like this anymore. I probably know everything by heart cuz I've seen them all so many times. IDK. 11 seasons is pretty long. Like all shows that last that long.. it starts to get worn out. They did everything they could possibly do. And I think they really ended it on a good note for the finale. I also remember it being a big deal, ratings here high, so many tuned in that night. My family gathered around the tv set and to the very end I felt like weeping like a baby. Lol. Whenever I watch it today and when Tom Bosley looks at the camera (something not common back then for TV shows) and says "thank you for being a part of our family. to Happy Days". And then the montage of flashbacks I think made everyone emotional.
That may be true, the show is a spinoff from L.A.S., but Henry Winkler played a Fonzie-type character in American Graffiti, which led to him being cast as The Fonz in Happy Days.
It was a bad idea that they did this episode so late in the series. They could've gotten younger actors to play them in the flashback scenes at this point.
This is around the time of the Korean War because at the start of the series Ritchie has an older brother, Chuck, who gets drafted to go to Korea and subsequently vanishes from the series. Now this makes me wonder... Most early bikers were WWII veterans who rode army surplus Harley Davidsons. Was Fonzie a veteran? He is considerably older than Ritchie and friends. Something to ponder.
According to other commenters here, Fonzi was supposed to be very near or the same age as Ritchie et al. I can see how your theory makes sense otherwise, but I don't imagine that much logical thought went into Fonzie's image by the creators, I would think it was more a case of them choosing stereotypical characteristics of a cool character.
Why did Richie and Potsie and Ralph always act like 13 year olds when they were 17?? I loved the show growing up, when I was 13...but I always thought they were immature...
I preferred the first 2 seasons, but still watched until the 'jumping the shark' episode. We all know that became the calling card for when a series started to turn downward.
I agree with you. The first three seasons were about kids growing up in the 50s. Also there was the older brother Chuck who I believe was going to college. Then the show was centered more around Fonzi was filmed before a live studio audience and Chuck disappeared.
Funny, the actor playing that other biker played Jughead in a one-episode Archie comics based show in the late 70s. This is only the second thing I’ve ever seen him in. He was a good Jughead.
That's been my opinion all these years. Lamer was when they had Fonzie move over Ritchie's garage. And then by the third season they barely even dressed like they were in the 50's. And don't get me started on Chachi. The live audience thing was a product of 70's sitcoms in general. But yeah, it wrecked the original tone of the show. It would have better to have cancelled the show after one season.
I’m glad Fonzie evolved from being a thug; he wouldn’t have been the beloved character that he became. It wasn’t just that he was cool, but that he was a good guy that made him who he was.
How is this “Richie Meets Fonzie”? He met him way back in first few episodes…..white windbreaker, never talked,….and Ralph Mouth was a real nemesis to Richie they weren’t friends at all - almost enemies.
When i was a kid i though the fonze was so cool. I happened into henry at the pheonix airport a few years back, a part of me died when i stood next to this little man.
It’s the man inside that matters. And I’m not short just saying that to feel better I’m over six feet tall but it truly is who you make yourself that matters how you craft and maximize the potential of your personality. Confidence is really accepting a thing and making it work for rather than against you.
@@ComeAlongKay Truth! I always thought Fonzie's short but still in charge persona was a nod to James Cagney who was short but always played the toughest/coolest gangsters.

Yes, but it wasn't that simple. Richie convinced Fonzie that the gang was riding his coattails and he didn't need them to be cool.
Fonz said 10 o'clock
@ Yeah Richie kept him waiting because he had homework to do
What memories watching this in london 70s ❤
It was popular back in the 80's in France I was addicted to this serie.
The guy with the Fonz is Darrel Maury. He was in a lot of stuff around then. He played Jughead in a couple of Archie pilots and was a lead in the cult classic Massacre at Central High.
Nice spotting, that massacre movie is a good one, can’t recall how it ended though, maybe like heathers with a bomb?
He also was a regular and played Chachi’s cousin Mario on “Joanie Loves Chachi”. Which would also mean he is Fonzie’s cousin Mario.
good movie
LOL,. Ritchie knew Fonzie when he was trying to finish school and wore a windbreaker instead of a leather jacket. This must be an alternate reality flashback.
It was contrived later on.
Fonzie got the windbreaker after leaving the Falcons
Nope. Fonzie was in the Falcons when he first met Richie and his pals. After he left the Falcons he wore the windbreaker since obviously he wasn't in the gang anymore. Then later started wearing the plain leather jacket. he was always a high school dropout and they always referenced how Fonzie was in a gang before.

Happy Days was a dumb show. It just had the fortune of existing when canned humor and a plethora of mediocre sitcoms were the norm.
@RG-tt1ru stop exactly when there was three networks and they had a monopoly they could put anything on TV and people would watch it. There was no cable there's no video rental there was no competition
I like the first few seasons personally. The pre Chachi episodes.

@@sagatuppercut2960 Wrong
Ya I agree 👍 they had alot more outside shots instead of before a live Audience performances also before Fonzie became this over Exaggerated character
@@TheSchmed every time I read "jump the shark" i have to go off and google it again.. lol.. every time
This was a later episode where Chachi wanted to join a gang. They were telling him in a flashback about when Fonzie was in one.

TV was awful back then with few exceptions. It wasn’t until The Sopranos that tv shows were written and presented like they weren’t trying to insult the viewers intelligence.
Agree, reality TV sucks... no idea how it is so popular
Richie and Fonzie meet in an Alley after that Fonzie and Richie are Best of friends
Alleys can be fun.
40 years later just occurred to me all the falcons were under 5’09. Hahaha
All the main actors were under 6’. Mickey Dolenz of the Monkees was one of the finalists for the Fonz role, but at 6’1” he towered over Richie, Potsie and Ralph. The producers ultimately made the better choice going with Henry Winkler.

Super hilarious stuff. Blast from the past. Thanks.
Derrel Maury was also in Joanie loves Chachi, as the drummer, and he was the lead in the awesome movie "Massacre at Central High"
Richie showed up in a couple of episodes. Fonzie respected him for it.
Happy Days is one of my favorite TV show to watch. Those were the very best days

American graffiti,Henry Winkler should have been in that movie,half the cast from happy days were there,the good old days
When i was a kid i though the fonze was so cool. I happened into henry at the pheonix airport a few years back, a part of me died when i stood next to this little man.
My man, height doesn't have anything to do with "coolness".
I met him back in the 70s. He is pretty short.
It’s the man inside that matters. And I’m not short just saying that to feel better I’m over six feet tall but it truly is who you make yourself that matters how you craft and maximize the potential of your personality. Confidence is really accepting a thing and making it work for rather than against you.
@@ComeAlongKay Everyone is entitled to their own feelings about this. Personally I was expecting someone taller for the guy I though was so cool.
@@ComeAlongKay Truth! I always thought Fonzie's short but still in charge persona was a nod to James Cagney who was short but always played the toughest/coolest gangsters.
The cool people of today are the squares of tomorrow.
Winkler looks ridiculous. Hard to imagine he passed a tough guy.
