Complete 1st Season (3-DVD)

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 around a suburban whitebread 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 features all 16 episodes from the show's debut season, including fan-favorites "All the Way," "The Lemon," and "Fonzie Drops In."
