Happy
Days
changing
By Peter J. Boyer
?r i oievision writer
LOS AN(*KLES (AIM ? Happy
Days fans have probably noticed
that the days are becoming less
happy on that show. That is to say:
The Happy Days crew is getting
old. The innocent '50s have become
the turbulent '60s. High school
became college. And last week,
Arnold's Drive-In burned down.
It's not likely that the series, still
strong in its seventh season, will
become "Anxious Days." but what
was once a light nostalgia trip to
simpler times has become
something else, something that is
much more 1970s sitcom than 19f>0s 1
nostalgia.
The demise of Arnold's last week
as the symbolic end of what Happy
Days was in its beginnings, but the
changes have been occurring all
along; their seeds were planted by
creator Garry Marshall when
Happy Davs began.
"We promised the cast when we
started that they would not have to
remain the same," says Marshall.
"We told them they wouldn't have
to play sophomores in high school
for 10 years. We've now taken
them through four years of high
school and three years of college.
Their characters have grown with
them."
Yet, the most profound Happy
Days change had nothing to do
with time or age, but with the
programming hunches of Fred
Silverman, who was running
things at ABC when Happy Days
really took off. Silverman saw
Henry Winkler's Fonzie, who
1 -I ?
ucgdii da d accuuudi y midi iitter,
as the show's promo attraction.
He instigated a rearrangement
of the show's structure that put
Fonzie on center stage. Happy
Days became "The Adventures of
Fonzie." "Actually, it was a very
soft show when we started,"
Marshall says. "Then, to make it
competitive, changes were made
to make it funnier, punchier ?
that's when we brought Fonzie
forward. Now, oddly enough,
we've gone full circle.
"Happy Days is a very special
show. It's still hanging in there,
and the audience is still there. I
was delighted to see that this year.
nn? c.wLa A - i? m.i_ ? 1 *
i u iifcm 10 ue inu. i, you sometimes
have to compromise. We haven't
had to with Happy Days."
It will end, though, probably next
year. It's probably for the best;
Richie, Pottsie, Fonzie and Ralph
won't have to worry about the
draft.
