    I agree. Great Directing talent.

    I watched the L and S show back then too.

    They were a funny act.

    R.I.P. Penny Marshall. o:)

    RIP. I loved her Laverne character. I was not aware that she was married to Ron Reiner at one time or was the sister to Garry Marshall.

    Rob Reiner ( Meathead ) I think was her 2nd husband. Yea, that's him. ;)

    Yea, Gary Marshall, I didn't know that either or just forgot over the years.

    RIP Penny,

    I am reminded, there was a lot of good TV in the 70's and a good part of the 80's.
    The best way to predict the future is to invent it.

    It is imperative that we recognize that an opinion is not a fact.

    Mork and Mindy was on when L and S was on I believe. Maybe afterwards. The Fonz's show too.

    I remember when Happy Days reruns were on in 1975 in the morning at 10:30 am ct. A large TV room in my university student center was packed with folks watching it. It was very popular. Seemed like better days, '75 I mean. :)

    If I remember correctly, "Happy Days" was on at 8PM Tuesday night, followed by "L&S". Then "Three's Company" at 9PM....I don't remember what followed. "Mork and Mindy" was on Thursday, I think.

    I'd highly recommend the movie "Awakenings" with Robert De Niro and Robin Williams. Such a wonderfully acted and directed movie.

    RIP Penny Marshall

    You guys are going to get me in trouble for derailing a RIP thread.

    Example: So I watched the original "Planet of The Apes" from 1968 last night
    They were on planet Earth the whole time.
