Originating as a segment on the television comedy series LOVE AMERICAN STYLE, HAPPY DAYS quickly earned its way into the pantheon of sitcom classics with the help of one of the most iconic characters in American pop culture. Centered on a suburban white-bread family in 1950s Milwaukee, the series chronicled the wholesome adventures of teenager Richie Cunningham (Ron Howard), his bobby-soxer younger sister, Joanie (Erin Moran), their exasperated parents Howard (Tom Bosley) and Marion (Marion Ross), and Richie's on-the-make high school buddies, Potsie (Anson Williams) and Ralph (Donny Most). But it was the finger-snapping charm of the Cunninghams' upstairs tenant, greaser Arthur "Fonzie" Fonzarelli (Henry Winkler), that vaulted the series into the annals of television history--and ensured Fonzie's leather jacket a permanent spot in the Smithsonian collection. This collection presents every episode from the nostalgic show's first through fourth seasons.

Happy Days was set in the 1950s in Milwaukee, the heart of middle-class America, and told the story of the Cunningham family. Mr. Cunningham (Tom Bosley) ran the local hardware store and Mrs. Cunningham (Marion Ross), like all good TV Moms, spent her time in the kitchen. Their son, Richie (Ron Howard), hung out at Arnold's Drive-In with his pals Ralph Malph (Donny Most) and Potsie (Anson Williams), trying to be as cool as the coolest greaser in town, the Fonz (Henry Winkler). Richie's sister, Joanie (Erin Moran), tagged along whenever she wasn't at her friend Jenny Piccolo's house.
