I've not thought about this show in forever. I wish one of the streaming services would air the episodes.

My friends and I loved it.

Thanks for posting about this blast from the past, Love American Style. It is kind of fun to watch these oldies as so many careers were in their infancy or launched. Love Boat was another show that featured young talent from time to time.

I think Victoria Principal and Diane Keaton were both in two of the very early episodes.

The top right looks like a very, very young Harrison Ford.

I have no clue on the woman beside him.

@Mersha - Without looking at the comments I recognize Burt Reynolds, Harrison Ford, and Frankie Avalon - is that Annette? I recognize Kurt Russell, only because I started college with one of his cousins (from Maine) and she showed us lots of family pictures!

I'm not sure of the women. I think the last one on the bottom right is Connie Stevens.

@beach-mom I believe that is Annette. She looks so young.

The one with Burt Reynolds is Elizabeth Ashley. That is definitely a very young Harrison Ford, Annette Funicello and Connie Stevens

i didn't watch Love American Style, but I recognized most of this group.

Thanks for sharing

I was checking online for info about "Love, American Style."

I probably knew this at one time but totally forgot. "Happy Days," with Ron Howard, was a spinoff from "Love, American Style."
