whatever happened to ritchies older brother on the TV show, happy days?

Chuck Cunningham was on Happy Days for only the first season.  They wrote him out in the second season with no real explanation.  Maybe he was away at college and never came home?

You are right Callaway.  He never came home.  I think he was at college.  Marion was such a loving mother too, I wonder why he turned his back on his family :P  Actually, it's a wonder they didn't try a spin off from it like they did back then.  Pathetically with the Joanie and Chachi show.  ugggh.  But even Laverne and Shirley...wasn't happy days a spin off from that?

I think it was the other way around.  Laverne and Shirley was a spin-off from Happy Days.  I think Laverne and Shirley were a couple of Fonzie's lady friends.

Yeah I realised I mixed it up.  Funny, Chuck should have been featured in that...oh, I guess Chuck didn't hang around 'those types of girls' like Fonzy did!

Look what I found on Wikipedia:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love%2C_American_Style#Happy_Days

Happy Days

Garry Marshall likes to say that "Love, American Style" was where failed sitcom pilots went to die. And there was much truth to that. Many times, if a TV producer couldn't find a network interested in a sitcom pilot he'd made, he'd sell the unused videotape to Aaron Spelling, who'd use the funniest bits of the pilot as a segment on "Love, American Style."

In 1972, Garry Marshall came up with a concept for a sitcom about teenagers growing up in the Fifties, and shot a Happy Days pilot starring Ron Howard (as Richie), Marion Ross (as Richie's mother), Anson Williams (as Potsie, Richie's friend), among others. Roles played in the episode by Harold Gould (Howard the father), Susan Neher (Joanie, Richie's sister), and Ric Carrott (Chuck, Richie's brother) were played by other actors in the spin-off. Marshall tried, unsuccessfully, to sell the sitcom to all three networks, but was unsuccessful. At last, he sold the pilot to Aaron Spelling, who aired the show in February 1972, as "Love and the Happy Days."

Shortly afterward, the movie American Graffiti and the Broadway musical Grease, led to a wave of nostalgia for the Fifties, and ABC executives decided to buy Marshall's new series, which became a huge hit.

I don't know why, but the character Richie annoyed me. Maybe it was his voice.
Did you used to watch the show a lot? What did you think of Laverne & Shirley?

I liked Richie.  I thought Potsie was a two-faced suck-up.

You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

I have never really cared for watching spectator sports and I am too klutzy to participate in team sports.

I used to like to watch figure skating, but that was because my office mate in graduate school liked it so much.

My husband's mom loves watching baseball and his dad loves watching football.  My husband's dad would ask my husband questions about the latest game as if he expected my husband to have watched it on television and when my husband would tell him that he had not watched it and did not care to watch football games, he would act like my husband was a freak because everyone on Earth watches football.  When my husband started asking him questions about the latest chess tournament and acting like everyone on Earth watches the chess tournaments, he finally sort of got the point.

 :D That is pretty funny the way your husband dealt with that.
I have done ten-pin bowling and a long time ago martial arts (that was good for getting used to being near people), that's about all. I failed sports in school. I was always last to get picked for teams and if a ball was being thrown around or being hit by a bat, somehow it would gravitate towards my head. Did you experience that sort of thing?

Yes, I was always the last or second-to-last to get picked for teams.

I couldn't run, couldn't throw, couldn't hit, couldn't catch, etc.

I did take karate and I did reasonably well at that, though.
