The 4 reasons that Garry Marshall gave ABC as to why it should have another chance

TVFactFan — Sun, 28 Jun 2026 04:20:15 GMT

Once Marshall heard it was being cancelled after season 3 he told ABC officials his plan for the show if given another chance

1. Have Mork marry Mindy
2. Send them to Planet Ork for honeymoon
3. Have them have a baby
4. Baby would be played by Jonathan Winters

ABC like the idea and put the show on the schedule and out of the first 5 eps of the season, the show ranked in top 20........twice. So the show had a good start to the season but I guess it became too weird and it fell off again

What happened to Remo & Jeanie in Season 4?

Was it ever explained what happened to Remo & Jeanie in season 4? I know the actors were cut (likely due to Jonathan Winters' big salary), but I don't recall that it was ever explained what happened to the characters.

It seems weird they weren't at Mork & Mindy's wedding, as they were close friends and hung out a lot.

I know that Glenda and Nelson were also written out, but that didn't bother me as much for some reason.
