I'm curious. What episodes from season 11 does TVLand skip?

I don't get TVLand. Where I do watch HD season 10 is coming to and end this week. Because of your post, I am now going to pay attention to see if any season 11 episodes will be skipped.

Since I find both seasons 10 & 11 hard to watch, I wouldn't mind episodes being skipped.

For season 10, I counted only 3 episodes that I don't mind.

actually seasons 8-11 aren't THAT terrible, granted it wasn't the same as it was with Ron Howard, but they were still watchable once you got over the fact that Richie and Ralph (and even Potsie was only in about 1/3 of the episodes) were gone.

This is sort of related, so I'll post it here. I recently noticed a couple of bloopers in season 10.

In one episode, Arnold is talking about what a wonderful time he had with a date that the fonz set him up with. What happened to Arnold's wife? Arnold had gotten married at the end of season 3.

Joannie and Jenny would be in the same grade, wouldn't they? Yet in season 10, Jenny is still in high school, while Joannie is out singing with Chachi. I also don't get why Jenny wasn't back for season 11. (except for the final episode).

Potsie gets stupider in the later years.

tv land shows the same shows all the time the brady bunch for example they anounce the episode number before the start of the show that whole series is shown from begining to end why can't all the shows get that treatment and yes season 11 is better than season 10 why don't you get your head out of the ron howard years and watch. the whole series of any classic show should be shown.

I just thought most hd fans tried to prevent from watching season 11. i tried watching but it's so hard without richie and ralph

the thing i like about it is that it did tie most of the loose ends of the series up maybe i like it because when these episodes first aired i was graduating high school and i had grown up with happy days but in context season 11 was better than much of the post richie ralph episodes season 10 on the other hand was horrible the show was totally turning a different way season 11 brought a little of the original show back.

at least in season 11, it began to have the early 60's feel again. There are plenty of season 9 and 10 episodes that if you didn't know the show was meant to be set in the 50's/early 60's, you would've figured it was set present-day. Joanie's perm, Jenny Piccolo's new-romantic haircut (she looked like one of the girls in The Human League) in season 10 and the way she dressed, Flip's bared midriff short shirts, K.C.'s clothes, etc.... if someone in 1982 watched Happy Days for the first time without any knowledge of the show, they would've figured it was set in the present.

TV Land didn't skip any episodes from season 11 this time around. They only aired them in the weird order that they always do.

For what it's worth, season 11 is probably my favorite season from the entire series. Also, I always look forward to the last four by the time the seventh season comes along.

Actually I go to work pretty early in the morning and TV Land showed all of these episodes at 4:30AM. I know, because I watched all of them as I was getting ready for work.

happy days airs at 9am then again at 430 am but its the same episode from 9am the day before unless the snuck them in on the weekend they didn't air those 6 episodes.

That's what happened - they "snuck" them in on the weekend. I know for a fact that every season-11 episode was shown because I checked the two-week schedule nearly everyday (when they still had it). There are two episodes per week that air at 4:30 AM and not at 9:00 AM. Those are on Sunday and Monday mornings.

I have my VCR going but noticed there were specials I think it was for "Good times'' but I noticed also that season 11 is never in order, I wonder why the network does that? I notice WGN shows it in order.

the last season is strange because when it ran on abc they showed the last episode before the season finished running PASSAGES ran in early may of 1984
the show dissapeared untill the summer then abc ran the remainning episodes from july- aug the last episode only aired once on abc. when tv land airs happy days they show it most of the time in the original air order . many tv stations air a series in catalouge order thats probably how wgn airs happy days .when i use to tape it back in the late 80s and 90s it ran on tbs and also on wpix (now the wb) they ran it for the most part in catalouge numerical order which i like better.

Passages was great episode... I watched it the other day on TVLand.

Yeah, a lot of those later eps. without Richie and Ralph aren't that bad.
