I watched quite a bit of it.  They are so funny and I always liked that show.  So much comedy and clean comedy, too!

One of my all time favorite shows. Two of the best books I have ever read were Penny Marshall and Gary Marshall's biographies. Lots of inner circle stories about the shows and movies they did. Two exceptional human beings that showed in their lifes work.

I didn't see it either but this show was one of the best.

 

Penny Marshall actually did drink milk and Pepsi in real life, stemming from her mom making her drink all her milk before she could have a soda.  She would top off the last of her milk with soda.

My fave episode was when Laverne fell in love with a fireman, played by an unknown Ted Danson and then he was killed in a fire.

Always enjoyed this show and had many laughs.  Unfortunately, we no longer get this channel.

 

One of my favorite episodes is when they volunteered to participate in some "experiments" in order to earn money to attend an event at a fancy hotel.  Hilarious!  I think of Shirley whenever I see a Ritz cracker!!!!
