After 1980, Happy Days should have ended because there was no Richie or Ralph and the show became boring. Fonzie was only interesting with Richie by his side-The Fonzie character was nothing without Richie or Ralph. Potsie should have left too-That's like Jack staying on Three's Company without his two buddies-TV LAND should not show reruns of Happy Days after the 79-80 season.

I LOVE All The Episodes!!! Although I Must Say The Show Lost That Magic Touch When Richie And Ralph Left. But I Think TV Land Should Show All The Episodes, Every Single One. Because I Love Them All!!!

Yes, I agree the show changed after R and R left, and some of that special magic was lost. But it was still funny without them. I liked the Fonzie-Joanie-Chachi chemistry almost as much as the Fonzie-Richie-Ralph-Potsie chemistry.

I can't agree-Fonzie had to carry the show by hiself and that was something Fonzie did not have to do when Richie was there. Then the producers tried to make Joanie one of the main characters which was a bad idea

I agree with Solomon..but Im GLAD my show made it for so long and has left such an impact! And I think they should air the 80's..maybe when I get TVLAND Ill be able to get the COMPLETE collection. But seeing how Richie was my favorite, it was tough!

Yeah TV LAND is the best-when you get it you will see what i'm talking about. Right now TV LAND is showing Season 3 and Season 4 starts next week-But I'm waiting for Season 6 when Mork appears-That's the best Episode

TV LAND is currently showing 2 episodes a day so if you have TV LAND you should be able to get all the episodes-Just don't tape the first two seasons because they were not in front of a live studio audience

I don't care too much for the seasons 74-75 when the theme song was-'one,two, three oclock, four o' clock rock-those episodes should not be aired-Also Fonzie did not become famous until happy days filmed in front of a live studio audience-Also Happy Days Was not a number hit until they were in front of a live studio audience. 1975 to 1980 was the best years for Happy Days

I guess i don't like the first two seasons that much because it really reminded me of a 50's sitcoms-it just had a old dull look to it. and i know i'm not the only one who feels that way because they eventually went to a live studio audience
