I have yet to see a Joannie Loves Chachi episode but from what I have read about it and how I can't stand them on the season before there spinoff I don't think I would be able to stand it. I don't really like Mork and Mindy, but I would definitely rather watch it than a lot of other shows.

Wink JOANIE LOVES CHACHI

was by far the worst spinoff
it was HORRIBLE

Chachi was such a dork and Joanie was just plain Gross looking
and the music they sang was awful too

the whole show was a nightmare

id watch mork over J L C any day

Joanie Loves Chachi ...no one else loved him, or the show/// The whole idea of this show was poor not only for the writing, but the fact that the 2 lead actors had just broken up as BF-GF in real life, and it showed, they seemed totally uncomfortable together

I seen about 10 eps and it still had that Happy Days Connection since Al was on the show with some apperances from Howard and Marion and Fonzie. Mork and Mindy was just too..................

I'll say Joanie Loves Chauchi but Blansky's Beauties was worse.

I'm not sure if Blansky Beauties is a Happy Days spinoff,. I'm curious to know if it was promoted as a spinoff in TV Guide

YES it was a spinoff

the Nancy Walker character had guested on Happy Days as Howards relative and that was the set up for her own show

PLUS Penny Marshall guest starred as Laverne Defazio along with her father in 1 episode also

The odd thing was seeing actors on the show who would later join the cast of other Happy Days show--- ARNOLD, CHACHI and CARMINE were all part of the BB cast and later got moved into the other casts once BB was cancelled

i have like 10 eps on dvd i think, NOT a bad show, but it was pretty asinine

it is TECHNICALLY a spinoff of happy days
BUT was a "Forced" spinoff, not 1 that progressed naturally!

I have to do some more research before I call it a spinoff
