Happy Days is an American television sitcom that aired first-run on the ABC network from January 15, , to July 19, , with a total of half-hour episodes spanning 11 seasons. Created by Garry Marshall , it was one of the most successful series of the s. Based on the pilot, director George Lucas cast Howard as the lead in his film American Graffiti , causing ABC to take a renewed interest in the pilot. The first two seasons of Happy Days focused on the experiences and dilemmas of "innocent teenager" Richie Cunningham, his family, and his high school friends, attempting to "honestly depict a wistful look back at adolescence". Initially a moderate success, the series' ratings began to fall during its second season, causing Marshall to retool it.

Set in Milwaukee , Wisconsin , during the s, the series revolves around teenager Richie Cunningham and his family: his father, Howard, who owns a hardware store; traditional homemaker and mother, Marion; younger sister Joanie Cunningham ; Richie's older brother Chuck briefly in seasons 1 and 2 only, disappearing from storylines afterward ; and high school dropout, leather-jacket—clad greaser , suave and promiscuous mechanic Fonzie , who would eventually become Richie's best friend and the Cunninghams' over-the-garage tenant. The earliest episodes revolve around Richie and his friends, Potsie Weber and Ralph Malph , with Fonzie as a secondary character.
