This had to be one of the worst Happy Days episodes ever. I would take the shark jumping in Hollywood episode over this one anyday. I would have flunked Potsie for his atrocious singing. But Richie did play a killer harmonica.

See this thread where I urged that the emerging Pope Song be sung to the tune of "Pump Your Blood."
But it got no love.

Anson Williams directed quite a few episodes of DEEP SPACE NINE (and VOYAGER and ENTERPRISE, but I don't truck with those). For that, I apologize. Also, you just know that Erin Moran would rather have been wearing lingerie than that woolen skirt-suit shit. And wouldn't that have been nice to see?

I like the canned laughter when he starts rolling the teacher around. Oh, isn't it hilarious how flummoxed that crusty old teacher looks???

So he went into directing, huh? That's interesting.

I got it right away, too. I just didn't tell anyone.

One of the worst episodes from the worst era of
Happy Days -- the post-Ron Howard years.
Happy Days shouldn't even have been on the air at this point.

Oh. So that's not Erin Moran (Joanie), then? I thought it looked like her at first, but on second viewing, I guess it probably isn't. Not the highest quality on that video.

Nope. Erin Moran was still on the sidelines at that point, waiting for older cast members to leave so she and Chachi (ugh) could take over the show.
Even the original
Happy Days run had some dud shows. Another positively wretched one is the Valentines Day show that was all-musical. Wanna hear Al sing? No, you don't.
