I don't watch Laverne and Shirley a whole lot to know everything about every charchter, but I heard someone mention that Lenny and Squiggy were in High School, I'm finding out a lot more lately that these people who were just about 30 in real life played kids on TV. Does anyone know how long they were in High School, and what season they graduated?

As far as i remember from watching the reruns which are in heavy rotation on TV Land, it might have been mentioned somewhere that the boys went to high school with Laverne and Shirley, but the characters were all supposed to be in their mid to late twenties at the start of the series.

I'm guessing.. since they weren't all too bright... that they were in high school for MORE than four years. I know Laverne & Shirley graduated in 1956 at Fillmore High. So, I'm guessing that's supposed to Lenny and Squiggy's graduating year, too. They weren't at the 10 year reunion from the Cal. episodes, so i think I'm right.
At the start of the series, they were 21. (Episode #4, Laverne said they've had four reunions in the three years since they graduated.) ~~ROCK ON! ...Spinal Tap

Well all I can say about it is.............. They looked old to be in High School. Especially Squiggy who was losing his hair on the show. Yeah right!!! He's suppose to be only 17 or 18...........

Actually, they were already out of High School when the show started, someone said they were at least 21. early 20's sounds about right. Shirley wanted a reunion every year. Infact, she wanted one 6 weeks after they graduated I think. lol...

Yes I do hate dreams like that, Why Squiggy? Why not Lenny?
It was so weird, We were at church at my brother's wedding. and Squiggy couldn't get his tux straight and was fidgety and I was complaining about my dress. The bride got fed up and called off the wedding. Squig disappeared and I couldn't find my way out of the building. I still can't get that stupid dream out of my head. I don't know how he got into a family function

That would be a good idea because I have most of my Laverne and Shirley dreams written down! One involved my dream ending w/ Penny Marshall yelling 'cut!' So I have some pretty interesting ones! There's one that I can't explain! Whenever I'm w/ Fonzie and I always am, we're on a bus! Weird, eh?
