In the long run however, ''Happy Days'' has clearly left a far greater cultural impact, be it for nostalgia of The50s (which ''Laverne & Shirley'' didn't really exploit) never quite fading away or the iconic Fonzie. Not to mention the fact that ''Happy Days'' was quite widely exported abroad, ''Laverne & Shirley'' [[NoExportForYou not so much]].

So instead, they had her ''think'' she got pregnant because she was taken advantage of while black-out drunk. Yes, really. And the whole development is played for laughs.

* TheScrappy: Walter Meany gets a fair amount of hate because he was the one who married (and impregnated) Shirley and led to her moving away, something which most people agree was a bad move on the writers' part (true, Shirley's actress was pregnant but they could have simply put the show on hold for a while). Even though there are some who don't blame Walter, he has very few actual fans.

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: In "One Flew Over Milwaukee", was Shirley lying about Duane the canary having bronchitis (making her line "Would I ever lie to you?" a SuspiciouslySpecificDenial), was she just paranoid (since Laverne did mention a NoodleIncident involving Shirley thinking a hamster had a headache), or did Duane actually have bronchitis?
