ABC's The Happy Days of Garry Marshall is a joyous special

Tuesday's two-hour tribute to late creator of Happy Days and Mork & Mindy "absolutely made me laugh, caused my heart to swell and, even if it didn't wring full-on tears from me, it generated a surge of emotion in the end," says Daniel Fienberg. "For all the places it could have offered more depth or detail, it did those things instead, and I'm sure Marshall would have approved. The thing you come away from The Happy Days of Garry Marshall feeling, with the most certainty, is that people loved working with him. You probably already suspected as much from the loose, spirited joy of his early TV hits and even from the star-glutted excesses of the holiday-themed trilogy that capped his career."

Yeah, the first hour were about Happy Days, Laverne and Shirley, and Mork and Mindy. And Odd Couple wasn't mentioned much, but Tony Randall and Jack Klugman are both dead already. May they RIHP. And the 2nd hour where it was about the movies was the boring part.

The second part felt like an infomercial for Disney, who he made a lot of movies for apparently.

Glad I'm not the only one who felt that way.
