and from watching the credits, you can tell part 1 was aired as DS and part 2 was originally a HL episode. (so if HL ever saw syndication or DVD, I don't think this 2 parter would be included)

So it sounds like a simlar situation with Happy Days and Laverne Shirley, in 1979 Part 1 of Shotgun Wedding was aired as a Happy Days episode and Part 2 was aired as a Laverne and Shirley episode

For me it was finally nice seeing Joanna Gleason act. I love her after seeing her on game show reruns

Exactly, Sol! But in this case, since HL isn't in syndication, both eppys air as DS episodes. I always hate coming across that episode of HD in syndication because you know you will NEVER see part 2! Since stations rarely carry both HD and L&S, much less run the episodes in tandem!

There was a syndication ending created for that Happy Days ep. So when it aired on TV LAND, if you never saw HD before you would never know it was a two part episode

Remeber richie ran back scared because he thought something would happen to fonzie? Well in the syndicated version when Richie runs back to tell his dad Fonzie is in trouble, Fonzie somehow is already THERE and No longer in danger-lol


Of course in the ABC version Richie is seen RUNNING to get help and then it goes Off

You know what I did not like about the credits? That they used the 1985 style and format for those credits towards the end of that last scene when trying to pass off HL as a DS epsiode. During the last season of DS, the font for the credits change and that exact font was used during the crossover episode. Its a little thing but a big thing.

Part 2 of what? what aired today was the second DS/HL crossover--the one involving Larry coming to New York to try out as a talk show host. It says "to be continued" at the end. Does an online guide show Monday's episodes as not being part 2?

Default Part 2 not aired

Yes, the tv guide says it won't be aired...it will be Mrs Garret's romance. BET doesn't have it up yet so maybe they will change it over the weekend...lets hope so. That would suck to not get part 2.

CW did that with Family ties....they kept showing part 1 of a two parter but never showed part 2....in two cycles of the show.

Oh well.
