I work with a woman (in Texas) who claims to have played Fonzie's girlfriend in several episodes. Does anyone remember all his girlfriends (characters) names?

I think it would be easier if you gave us her name, the name of the character she played, and, perhaps, what episodes/seasons she claims she was in. Then, we could confirm whether or not it's true. Of course, if she was just an extra and never had a line, it would be much more difficult.

I don't really think she wants me to post her name and it's been such a long time that she can't even remember her character's name. She was a good friend of Henry Winkler's and he got her the part. She had a few lines, but not very many appearances. I'm just trying to help her remember her character's name.

How do you expect any of us to help without a name? It could be anybody but without a name it's going to be like finding a needle in a haystack if you'll pardon the old expression. Sounds to me like she may have been an uncredited extra which will make the task even harder without more information. If you're really that uncomfortable posting her name here then may I suggest sending it to one of us by private messenger.

If she had lines, she should have been credited. Therefore, her name would already be out there, so there'd be no problem posting it here. I'm sorry, but it's unlikely we'll be able to help without a name.

If she was credited then it would seem logical to me that her name would be online somewhere so posting it here shouldn't be an issue.

Well I can see why you wouldn't want to post her name, but those posts above mine are right, it's really difficult for anyone here to help you otherwise. Do what you feel most comfortable with. But have you started by Googling her name? I'd start with that and see what comes up. If she's done other things, maybe you can find her on imdb too. Let us know what you find out!

I've Googled her name AND checked imdb. I did all that and more BEFORE finding this website. Nothing. It's not a big deal. I was trying to help a friend with an old memory. She was also on the Rockford Files, but I won't post her name without her permission. Thanks for everyone's input. Sorry to have taken your time.

anglemark10 · 01-23-2008, 11:31 PM

Don't worry about it. You haven't taken our time. I'm interested to see how this turns out.

bingbangbaby · 01-24-2008, 10:31 AM

Yeah, no worries. Does she have any idea around what season it was? Was Joanie a little kid or more of a young lady? Did Marion have the beehive or the shorter hair? Could Fonzie be in a scene without the motorcycle or was the motorcycle there?

I'm interested to see how it all comes out too...
