Love, American Style was an hour-long television anthology which originally aired between September 1969 and January 1974.

Each week, the show featured different stories of romance, usually with a comedic spin. All episodes were unrelated, featuring different characters, stories and locations. The show often featured the same actors playing different characters in many episodes. In addition a large and ornate brass bed was a recurring prop in many episodes. Charles Fox's delicate yet hip music score, featuring flutes, harp, and flugelhorn set to a contemporary pop beat, provided the "love" ambiance which tied the stories together as a multifaceted romantic comedy each week.

The show may be best known for its February 1972 episode "Love and the Happy Days" which became the pilot for the popular TV series Happy Days. That episode was written by Garry Marshall and featured Ron Howard (as Richie), Marion Ross (as Richie's mother), Anson Williams (as Potsie, Richie's friend), among others.

The theme song was sung by the family pop group The Cowsills for the first season. A new version done by John Bahler, Tom Bahler, and Ron Hicklin, (billed as The Charles Fox Singers), starting in the second season carried on for the remainder of the series, as well as on all episodes in syndication.

It happend while I was managing a Hardee’s.
One of the girls working for me was cleaning out the french fry vat.
We used a small fish net to strain the fat and remove particles of french fries and breading.
Well, she dropped the net in the vat.
And reached into the hot grease to retrieve it.

Just as she went into the grease, I grabbed her - I’m not sure where, maybe by the elbow and around her waist - picked her up, spun her around to the ice machine, and plunged her hand into the ice.

She came away from the incident with a little redness and some swelling.

Her Mom never let me forget - and to me, it was just one of those ‘Aw shucks’ moments.

[TASMANIANRED]

I’m betting she would chow down again in a skinny minute.
