@hulkwillsmash48 LMAO man!! I love the last part of your comment regarding that idiot Obama!! Not only is this guy a goofball but his ass is probably one of those old ass anarchists at the Occupy rally crap!! LMAO again!!
@mrjohnnysmith Oh, I get it. People have concerns about the direction of their country and you call them crap. Very intelligent. Extremely intelligent.
Take it from an old geezer who remembers. I grew up in the 70s and they sucked. Times were as bad as they are now with high unemployment and with the additional burden of high inflation. In the late 70s I was a teenager and there was no hope of even a summer job at McDonald's unless you had a connection. TV sucked (the Brady Bunch!) movies sucked, the music sucked, everything sucked. Young people now—don't buy the rosy memories. The 70s was one of the worst decades in American History.
I agree with you kittybunnyface. There is something in particular about the early seventies that I have a special fondness for even though it was really before my time as I was still just a toddler. I wish I could revisit that time.
joujrneyman2mage, whatever drugs you are on, I'd like to have some so I too, could escape reality for a while. How else could you in your wildest dreams believe "conservatives" watch Jerry Springer and the "must see TV" crap that has polluted the airwaves since the mid 70s? The values shown on "Love American Style" may have been "liberal" compared to late 60s fare, but are conservative by today's standards. And why put "Fox News" into a discussion about sitcoms and entertainment? Idiotic!
Great '60s music. When it was OK to say that you were an American and OK to talk about love. I was born in 1965 so I'm too young to have experienced it firsthand but I'm still nostalgic for it.
Okay, this clears it up. I tried telling someone I saw a Happy Days episode with Harold Gould instead of Tom Bosley and they thought I either had dreamed it or was crazy. I caught it in the middle on Nick at Night really early in the morning and had no idea it was "Love American Style".
While it is true that passing time distorts memory, I have to disagree; I watch a lot of shows from the 60s and 70s now, thanks to YouTube, and they were more intelligent, the scripts were more literate, the plots were less predictable..although sometimes hairstyles were hideous. :-) But the first part of that goes triple for movies, which now tend to pander to the lowest possible common denominator because they're too damned expensive to produce. Try getting a new script like 'Sleuth' made.
This show ran a really long time, I was born in '71 and remember it all the way until the early 80's, although I think it was called New Love American Style at that time, not sure what was so new about it.
Ron Howard, Marion Ross and Anson Williams are the only 3 members of this cast to have stayed with Happy Days when it got it's own show. I've seen the First Happy Days on Love American Style and the rest of the cast just didn't fit in and I'm glad they made changes.
The TV shows of the seventies were quite good and inoffensive as I would agree , growing up at the time , but mind you , not all TV shows today are crap . Yes , there are a lot of sex , violence , and potty humour these days , on both cable and network television , but this is a reflection of our times , people are not naive and innocent about life as they once were , clean wholesome TV doesn't cut it anymore . We cannot change TV back to what it was in the '70s , we could change certain things
Television is horrendous now, yes this was a campy (but fun) TV Show that made you feel good. How much of the depressing crap they put on TV these days makes you feel good? I can't find anything. All this god awful reality crap just showing how stupid, vain, greedy, arrogant and annoying people are with or without a stupid cell phone stuck to their face.
Sorry but the 70's were better. People were nicer, the pace was slower and TV made you feel good.
I remember this one very well, some of the characters that were shown in this one either were completely phased out, or replaced with different actors when this particular episode evolved into a show which has become legend . . . Happy Days.
Yeah I agree today's junk is purely commercial. Bring back the love boat even for christ's sake or mash or any one of the feel good comedy's. We need to talk to the boss. If he/she aint in there 20's!
I love how everyone complains about how bad television is now compared to goofy stuff like this (even my dad hated Love American Style). Truly, Everything Was Better When You (yes, you) Were Twelve.
Mark my words, we'll have people ten years from now complaining that Adventure Time and Criminal Minds were better cartoons/dramas than the tripe produced in the year 2021.
@RiotShield i actually like Criminal Mindas, bust have't ogtten around to watching it. mainly because im watching abc sitcoms and svu. i am a loyal law & order fan even if the shows aren't loyal to the fans.
the TV series of the 1960s and 1970s were optimistic, heartfelt, but clueless, and during an era when we needed to recognize our flaws (stop pretending not to see the racism, sexism, anti-Semitism, homophobia around us) so we could finally do something about them, such cluelessness seemed criminal
however, today, when the U.S. seems damaged beyond repair by Bush's vandalism of the Constitution and our national honor and by Obama's inertia, a time of clueless hope looks pretty good
@BlameRepublicans Crack was the black mans way of expressing himself in America.The blackman doesnt have skills,education or class...so they take Cocaine and fugure out how to stick it in a pipe and smoke their heart away which has helped cut down on the population of unemployed,welfare Niggers for the past 25 years.
@yourdickis2limp So they're not "niggers" anymore? It didn't happen at camp? Was it at your church? Ahh poor little bigot. You had your "lil smokey" touched by a black man in church? LOL. You're a crazy moron to me.
@BlameRepublicans A Nigger is a Nigger sambo."Camp","Church",why not at the nighborhood crack house where you and your family spend ninety percent of your time fucknuts?Now go fire up the pipe and let your local Nigger crackdealer make a better living for himself?
So let me get this straight - you seek to classify an subset of people as inferior to you despite the fact there are many members of said subset who are far more successful than you - all based on skin color? Wow - that's original. I don't think that's been done before. You should apply for a patent. You should design your own uniforms, maybe form a team, or clan. I bet that would be real successful. You know - stopping blacks from raising up through the ranks and becoming President. IDIOT
@BlameRepublicans you no nothing about me fucknuts,so why even have this conversation?I think your attempt to question my "inferiorities" and "lack of success" is just a typical American condecing his way to bully a decent guy into feeling as though hes inadaqute and not worthy of enjoying the American dream our fonding fathers and mothers worked so hard for.Go pick on someone else this afternoon Sambo Im going to make love to my beautiful wife in my big white house in my all white neighborhood.
@yourdickis2limp Id like to make it manditory for this guy to live in the all black sections of LA and then tell us how nice it is. Of course, he would not last one week there. Of cpourse liberals never live around what they preach about.
@Bag0fRats@BlameRepublicans is a member of the Wiccans organization who was caught robbing a spermbank in Harlem and is now wearing an ankle bracelet in his mothers basement for the next 5 years to rid society of himself.He actualy sticks up for Niggers because he has them to thank for inventing Crack cocaine which helps him fantasize about watching his wife get gang banged by a dozen Harlem Globetrotters.
@Bag0fRats@BlameTheRepublicans still works night shifts at a local XXX hard core gay porn movie theater(the kind that Pee Wee Herman got arrested in).He gets paid $5 an hour to lick the man goo off of the video screans and a bottle of Listerine for being such a devoted employee.
@BlameRepublicans I have news for you blacks are just as racist as whites. However, white liberal pussies (redundaznt I know) never want to talk about that. Why dont you fakes do something about the N word said in all these rap songs ? Oh, you dont have the balls to do that.
@Bag0fRats Erin Moran said she had so many problems having sex with the cast of Happy days because all of them were Gay or bisexuals who would rather snort Cocaine than shove a stiff dick in her fat ass.Moran claims that the only stright guy on the set of Happy Days was Pat Moriata but he had only a half inch Chinnese dick.She also said that Ted McGinley swallowed so much of Anson Williams,Ron Howard,Donny Most and Henry Winklers man goo one night that he had his stomach pumped out.
..i used to watch this i think it was on late friday after the odd couple on ABC..friday was a good night for tv..we had a recently bought color tv and friday was about ''''sanford and son' ,brady bunch',' partridge family', 'chico and the man',''odd couple ,'love american style'',and because i could stay up late' carson' and the 'midnight special'. it's all meshed together because of time gone by but i remember those days well.my fave LAS was the episode with "wait till your father gets home'
jrf, i agree, i was about same age and we did same thing,brady bunch,partridge family,mannix with the whole family by the tv,does that happen with familes these days,i don't think so.........
I loved this show!! I was 8 years old in 1969, My parents had just purchsed our very 1st color TV during the summer of '69 and sitting down with my brothers in front of big 27 inch Magnavox on Friday Nights was a blast. I miss the 'old' days!!!
Wow! You just hit this guys heart with an awesome memory of my childhood home and watching this show with my brothers in our living room. The song gave me a nostalgic kinda sad yearning for that time.
The best thing about this show was that it was on friday night. Also remember my friend's parents wouldn't let him watch it because they thought it was too racey. haha
@tjmooney Yes Harold Gould was Ann Marie"s father on the original "That Girl" Pilot! I believe that was unaired at the time but is included on the wonderful dvd 5 season collection of That Girl!
Wow! I remember those glorious days when this show was on. Brought tears to my eyes. I will trade every one of that reality crap and sexual innuendo trash today for this show, and others like it from the 70's!
Belive it or not, this episode kicked off the "TV Land" network, in 1996. This episode made television history, by being the pilot of a cable network.
My twin Billy and I watched our grandpa (a widower) on Friday nights and would watch this show with him-TV just is not the same..keep the postings coming...
Remember Watchung This On Fridays Back In The Early 70's. If I Recall That Lineup It Was In The Following Order::" THE BRADY BUNCH," " THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY," "NANNY AND THE PROFESSOR," " THE ODD COUPLE," And This Show. Ahh, Those Were The Days!
@pepjrp I heard that too but I don't know how true that was because Ron Howard was in American Graffiti and his name was not Richie Cunningham and the story takes place in 1962.
@whoisdickieschnabel IIRC, the episode was about a girl Richie Cunningham had the hots for, and when the Cunninghams got a TV (when it was new and few had them), she pretended to be interested in Richie only so she could check out the TV. Typical Love American Style "plot" of the hassles of chasing the opposiie sex except it was set in the 50s. All LAS episodes were silly, cheesy, corny comedy about romance, sex and dating. HD was just 50s nostalgia sitcom developed from this one episode.
its sad that the hippy generation ended like THIS. Wow all those musicians were the real american heroes if they were still arouud things would be different
@TishKitty Yay, another who remembers That Girl. Awww, those where the days weren't they. Good old mom got me hooked on those shows, plus I use to watch a few soaps with her even.
TV of today is nothing but crime shows and Reality Shows and a huge dose of prescription drug commercials. You hear that Sally Field. You and your damn osteoporosis drug commericial. . Im sick of it. Go back to being the Flying Nun and lose your hat and crash into the sea. Love American Style. Just a harmless fun litle show from a much better time period that has now gone by.
i love the show i watch them all the time i am 54 now and i still love them i was a bobby sheman fan and still are for my whole life mary in colorado spring co
@MrKaewkwan The TV of yesteryear tops all the crap they show now. Maybe we didnt have the great special effects of today, but we had something todays TV never has.... Class !
I remember catching a bit of this if I was sick and at home alone back in the mid-70s (so it was recent re-runs). It was very sexual and in retrospect marked the transition from the late 60s to the 70s/80s mores (for good or bad). I also remember seeing the Love in the Happy Days show (bit) and being confused, because it looked like Happy Days in Bizarro World. A few different actors and settings. That clip would later become the basis for the show.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
this show was not a very good one. It promoted cheating on your wife or husband!
sleeping around was the norm, why not be modest and love your God. God wants the best for you. when you see things like this , think about the effects it has on you and your spouse and your children. It may be a small seed that is planted , but it can take root and grow, and more seeds are planted by other worldly shows. Be immersed in God, Read your Bible, Pray to the Father in the name of Jesus, go to Church.
Reminds me of playing in my room and hearing all the opening themes from the shows the parents were watching. Looks like a "pitch" or "concept" show Garry Marshall wrote (Penny Marshall's dad).
Didn't know about this. I do remember Love American Style. This was what they called an anthology show, since the cast changed with each story. I'm pretty sure I was too young to really get this show, when it was on network TV.
As much as I loved this show....it jumped the shark alot earlier than that episode of fonzie jumping the shark. I liked this show when it was about richie and his relationship with his best friend and his family. Fonzie was cool as a side charachter in the blue jacket. As soon as he switched to the leather jacket....the show became cartoonish and the father was made out to be a buffoon in some later episodes instead of like a father knows best character in the earlier episodes.
My mom wouldn't ket me watch this show because is was too risque. Funny how I remember all the words to the into song--ha! Guess that's why we sat so close to the TV...not only because there was no remote control, but for super speedy channel changing! Ah....the good ol' days!
Lol I sing This Song In my Volvo and people look at me like im on crack what a fricken riot I love this song it really reminds me of satarday morning cartoons with the super friends and Hr Puffinstuff
As a kid in the 1970s, I watched TONS of syndicated reruns of classic tv shows. But LAS wasnt one of them. The reason? The story lines, dealing with love, adult relationships, romance, etc., went WAY over my young head. However, that aside, I LOVED the opening theme song. Many is the time that when LAS came on, Id watch the opening theme, then change the channel to my shows that was opposite it. Decades pass, they release LAS episodes on DVD. I finally watch it as an adult & loving it.
If this was made today, it would be full of transvestites, cross dressers and homosexuals fist fucking one another's gaping assholes. Another piece of Jewish crapola.

@Bag0fRats Erin Moran said she had so many problems having sex with the cast of Happy days because all of them were Gay or bisexuals who would rather snort Cocaine than shove a stiff dick in her fat ass.Moran claims that the only stright guy on the set of Happy Days was Pat Moriata but he had only a half inch Chinnese dick.She also said that Ted McGinley swallowed so much of Anson Williams,Ron Howard,Donny Most and Henry Winklers man goo one night that he had his stomach pumped out.

whoisdickieschnabel 1 year ago
@whoisdickieschnabel IIRC, the episode was about a girl Richie Cunningham had the hots for, and when the Cunninghams got a TV (when it was new and few had them), she pretended to be interested in Richie only so she could check out the TV. Typical Love American Style "plot" of the hassles of chasing the opposiie sex except it was set in the 50s. All LAS episodes were silly, cheesy, corny comedy about romance, sex and dating. HD was just 50s nostalgia sitcom developed from this one episode.

tapeduk 1 year ago
I remember catching a bit of this if I was sick and at home alone back in the mid-70s (so it was recent re-runs). It was very sexual and in retrospect marked the transition from the late 60s to the 70s/80s mores (for good or bad). I also remember seeing the Love in the Happy Days show (bit) and being confused, because it looked like Happy Days in Bizarro World. A few different actors and settings. That clip would later become the basis for the show.

This comment has received too many negative votes show
this show was not a very good one. It promoted cheating on your wife or husband!
sleeping around was the norm, why not be modest and love your God. God wants the best for you. when you see things like this , think about the effects it has on you and your spouse and your children. It may be a small seed that is planted , but it can take root and grow, and more seeds are planted by other worldly shows. Be immersed in God, Read your Bible, Pray to the Father in the name of Jesus, go to Church.

As much as I loved this show....it jumped the shark alot earlier than that episode of fonzie jumping the shark. I liked this show when it was about richie and his relationship with his best friend and his family. Fonzie was cool as a side charachter in the blue jacket. As soon as he switched to the leather jacket....the show became cartoonish and the father was made out to be a buffoon in some later episodes instead of like a father knows best character in the earlier episodes.

As a kid in the 1970s, I watched TONS of syndicated reruns of classic tv shows. But LAS wasnt one of them. The reason? The story lines, dealing with love, adult relationships, romance, etc., went WAY over my young head. However, that aside, I LOVED the opening theme song. Many is the time that when LAS came on, Id watch the opening theme, then change the channel to my shows that was opposite it. Decades pass, they release LAS episodes on DVD. I finally watch it as an adult & loving it.
