What was Erin Moran's problem?? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Tyler77 · 08-02-2003, 11:03 AM

I'm new to this board, and I know it's probably been answered before, but I just want to know why Erin Moran has (or had) so much animosity towards "Happy Days?" I remember she did the talk show circuit many years back, and she often had terrible things to say about "Happy Days" and her (mis) treatment....doesn't make sense to me because she was given her own spin-off, and then was allowed to return to "Happy Days" when it failed. I do remember that what really got her riled up was the fact that the producers wanted to change the name of the show to "Fonzie's Happy Days" and it made her upset. I think there was a "Happy Days" reunion in the early 90's and Erin chose not to attend the taping of the special. Were the writers/producers giving her problems? Personality clashes?

Welcome Tyler77! I think Erin's problem was with her first husband, at least that was what I've read. He put stuff in her brain and she just said some untrue stuff. There was different stories on why she didn't appear on the reunion show. One was she was in a different part of the U.S. and couldn't make it and another is she was having problems with her first husband. Now she is remarried and very happy. She looks happy.

Welcome!

Yeah, what Sheryl said. I read in my People Magazine (that covered the 1992 reunion) that she didnt want to come. From what I understand her husband did put a lot of stuff in her head, but shes now found peace.

I heard that Erin Moran became a Christian & said that the castmembers were evil.

I saw her on Howard Stern's old channel 9 show (I'm sure I even have it on tape somewhere) and Erin revealed something terrible that happened in her life. To respect Erin, I won't go into it, but if this happened during the time, truely you can not blame her in the least. Trust me.

Poor Erin!!

But, I very highly doubt she said that the happy days cast was evil. I VERY VERY highly doubt it. *makes each member repeat that 1000 times*.

Yeah, from several interviews I've listened to she talks very highly of the cast and sounds like she means it. I seriously doubt she said they were evil.
