How many shows did Happy Days spin-off?
Laverne and Shirley
Mork and Minday
Joanie Loves Chachie
Those are the ones that immediately come to mind.
Actually "Happy Days" was spun off of "Love American Style," where the same show spun off others too like the adult cartoon, "Wait Till Your Father Get's Home."

Any beer is better than Budweiser.

When I was a kid in Ohio and Virginia, Schlitz seemed to be the most popular beer... then when we moved to California, it seemed everyone drank Coors, Budweiser and also Olympia. It’s probably just regional preferences.

I think Gomez is the only one left alive from The Addams Family since Tuesday just passed and Cousin IT, Felix Siva, who also did Twiki in Buck Rogers and a lot of other stuff for the Krofft Kid’s shows passed away last year.

I’ll bet June could have written all kinds of show biz chat and gossip books had she wanted to. Im probably glad she didn’t at least not so far. No need to wreck everyones better memories of that time right after WW2.

Hmmm, I think there are others just as bad, arguably. Red, White and Blue first comes to mind. Some people really thought Busch was a bad bottom beer. Milwaukee’s Best was actually the opposite. Keystone beers are all around bad. The Natural brand of beers was poor.

Schlitz was around quite a bit in Pittsburgh where I grew up but the big beers there was Iron City and Rolling Rock. Dad liked Rolling Rock before he stopped drinking. I remember Lone Star Beer in Texas and of course, bringing Coors east of the Mississippi was the plot for "Smokey and the Bandit."

It feels so strange being the same age as old people.

I remember when you just about couldn’t turn a television dial without running into Laverne & Shirley. This probably would have been back in the 1980s when it turned up in all kinds of non-primetime time slots in its various syndicated forms.

Obviously you’ve never had Falstaff from the mighty Missouri River.

I could never stomach it, Back in my youth I learned to never drink from a can of beer. Keg or a 12 oz can, it tastes bad and leaves a bad taste. Bottles are the only way I can drink beer, since I don’t want to get drunk I drink Coors light. I like the stout beers, but it has a problem of making me drunk. I get drunk, get stupid, start smoking again, get divorced... maybe that last one isn’t so bad...lol
