Huh. Didn't know that. And didn't Mork and Mindy start in the Happy Days show? Or at least it seems that way in my old mind.

Yeah. That was a really weird one-off plot.

That was a 'mom' hairdo when I was a kid. And it's not like all their slouchy, zany antics were optimized for attractiveness. They were goofy sitcom gals. It's like arguing whether Balky was hotter than Cousin Larry.

Cindy Williams' attractiveness didn't register until I finally saw American Graffiti in college.

But Laverne had a rockin bod. Look up the clip of her and Carrie Fisher as Playboy Bunnies from the show.
SO hot

:D

Garry Marshall's kid saw Star Wars and asked 'daddy, why can't we have aliens on Happy Days.' That created Mork.

Pam as Mindy was originally a nun in another sitcom in development that went nowhere. Garry knew Pam was talented, . . . and Robin was talented, . . . and Mork was popular, . . . and Star Wars was a thing. So he snorted a mountain of blow and pitched Mork and Mindy.

ROFL

Not sure how true that all is, but it does sound possible!

FWIW, I loved Mork and Mindy. Easily in my top 10 shows, possibly top 5. I would have to give that some thought? :hmmm:

I remember that episode. That was basically when every Happy Days plot was ‘Ritchie gets into trouble, and the Fonz comes to his rescue’. Mork was the bad guy in that episode that dueled with the Fonz.

So sad. Who would've known that chain-smoking for 60 years would lead to something like this?

I wasn’t aware that smoking causes diabetes. Good to know. :drool:

She's the kind of woman who would get you really drunk at dinner, drag you back to her place, throw you on the floor, straddle you, get in your face and hiss "DO ME you little PUSSY! Get those pants off... GET EM OFF!!!"

I was watching some coverage of her from younger years, and it hit me who reminds me of her. . . . Chelsea Peretti.

Put Penny's hair on Chelsea, or vice versa.
