I guess what he means is that nobody watches PBS so that's where they should be.

You would have had a very hard time getting both of them, as even Shirley wasn't on Laverne & Shirley by that point. That show had its own problems - it fell apart even worse than Happy Days in front of our very eyes!

Yeah I know. That was just a reason to not to watch eps from the 82-83 season. Saying that there was no crossover attempt because they were in California. They were not in CA in the 70's which lead to the guest apearances in 77 78,79

it might not have been so bad if they had come with better things to replace those with; keep in mind that the visits from Mork and L&S were just lucky that they turned into characters good enough for spin-offs, and Chachi and Big Al weren't on the show from the beginning.

Things weren't working, the new things they added were getting worse, and they seemed to be running out of ideas. I always suspected that they banked on the success of Joanie Loves Chachi, and wanted to end the main show and continue with the spinoff only....

I'm surprised the 82-83 season still finished at 28.
