HAPPY DAYS - Richie Almost Dies

The most unintentionally funny "Very Special Episode" ever. That's not a knock on the actors, who are very good. That's not a knock on Suzi Quatro, who has a great set of pipes. But it's just so cheesy, exploitative and dumb. Plot summary: Richie is in a coma so Fonzie can cry, Leather Tuscadero sings a song that sounds way more like the late '70s than the late '50s.

You think this was unintentual funny? You laugh at the big scene in Bambi and the Lion King too?

Oh, c'mon. The scene with Fonzie at Richie's bedside is great. Best scene of the entire series.
