Happy Days are over for Erin Moran: Actress is..kicked out of her trailer park home'
Daily Mail UK ^

Posted on 09/27/2012 8:16:14 AM PDT by Perdogg

Erin Moran was just 14 when she signed on to play Joanie Cunningham, the feisty little sister of Richie Cunningham in the hit Seventies show Happy Days.

But while child actor Ron Howard, who played Richie, has since gone on to become an A-list Hollywood producer and director, his on-screen 'sister' has fallen on much harder times.

Moran, 51, was photographed looking worse for wear outside a Holiday Inn in Corydon, Indiana, after reportedly being kicked out of the trailer she shared with her husband Steve Fleischmann.

She probably doesn’t remember getting them because she was $hitfaced all the time.

My understanding is that AFTRA and SAG retirements are quite generous. Maybe I’m wrong.

Thanks for the info...as you said..residuals began to be standardized in the 70's..which is when the show ran..so it could be yes or no..and even if the 6th or 7th ranked cast member got any, it wouldn't be more than a pittance..

The point I was trying to make was that she didn't make a lot..it's not like she earned millions , and pissed it away.. ( see Vince Young...)

Again, not excusing her many obvious bad life choices..

She was 14 when that show started, her parents took home at least half her money I bet.

Hollywood is particularly harsh on most women and children. Few have much staying power and they realize a lot of the money and residuals don’t go to them but to hidden others.

Some wind up on the “mommy track” or become the husbands of ne’er-do-well bad boys but few find happiness once the spot lights dim.

Well, the first few checks are pretty sizable, then drop dramatically.

The problem arose when no one was getting paid on syndication.

I did a few regional commercials and was paid spiraled down residual for I think a period of 6 months not as long as the ad ran.

Friend of mine was in Jaws 2. He received dwindled down checks for 2 or 3 years. The first one was a whopper. The last one was about ten bucks.

Residual income is good to have, but you can't live on it.

She could star in Crappy Days.

So could many of us in Obamaville.

IIRC, a few years ago there was a big story about the lady in JAWS..the one who at the beginning ran in the water and was attacked by the shark..I think she was a stuntwoman..

Eddie is retired. He was with the LAPD 18yrs as a motorcycle cop. I heard he got shot on the job and that ended the LAPD job. Life seems to have turned out fairly well him, all things considered.

Ken Osmond “Eddie Haskell” was a police officer (LAPD) for 18 years. He was wounded 3 times in the line of duty and eventually retired with a medical disability pension.

Each received a payment of $65,000 and a promise by CBS to continue honoring the terms of their contracts.

What is that worth? Sales of Happy Days lunchboxes can't be too brisk these days.

Just another victim of the Obama economy.

Back in the Eisenhower years Joanie Cunningham lived an idyllic life in middle upper class suburban Milwaukee in a large house.

And today under the Obama regime little collegiate Joanie Cunningham and her highly educated live in boyfriend cannot even pay the rent at the local trailer park.

Even Potsy has fallen on hard times was last seen on Milwaukee’s skid row.
