Thanks for the heads up! I'll have to check out that L&S interview!

But I'm wondering why NBC would do that interview and not ABC...hmm, lol!

It is very cool that they are including L&S.

Well, Laverne & Shirley was a top rated show for a long time! Very popular, that "L!"

I missed it too. I watched the Taxi reunion on Friday and it really wasn't anything interesting. Lasted about 10 minutes. So I'm thinking the L&S reunion wasn't much better.
