Premise
Henry Winkler (Fonzie), Ron Howard (Richie Cunningham) and Donny Most (Ralph Malph) all supplied their voices to this animated version of the ABC TV series Happy Days.
The cartoon added an anthropomorphic dog, Mr. Cool, and a girl from the future, Cupcake, to the cast as they travel through history in a time machine, trying, as narrator Wolfman Jack put it, "...to get back to 1957 Milwaukee", placing the temporal abduction sometime in late season two or early season three of the live-action series.
Twenty-four episodes were produced. After the series ended, Henry Winkler as the Fonz and his sidekick dog, Mr. Cool, joined the Army and were added to the cast of the animated Laverne & Shirley in the Army, which premiered on October 10, 1981. The show was later renamed Laverne & Shirley with the Fonz and had the Fonz working in the motorpool as the chief mechanic. That series ran until September 3, 1983. Both series were syndicated with the animated version of Mork & Mindy as Mork & Mindy/Laverne & Shirley/Fonz Hour.
