From the L&S history archives … September 28, 1976: Season two kicks off with the episode “Drive! She Said.” When Shirley asks Laverne to go in halfsies with her on a car, Laverne must confront her fear of driving. (This is completely contradictory to the fact that, in their inaugural episode of “Happy Days,” they own a car and both drive.🤣) Directed by Howard Storm.

Did you know that “Laverne & Shirley” actually filmed episodes TWICE? One was in the late afternoon and the other was in the evening. This particular blooper actually comes from the rehearsal taping, as evidenced by the change in color of Squiggy’s button-up. I detail exactly why they did this and what a typical week of read-throughs, rehearsals, rewrites, filming, and pick-ups looked like in my upcoming book (due next year in celebration of the show’s 50th anniversary)! #laverneandshirley #lenn

Rarely was there a “very special episode” of “Laverne & Shirley,” but when they did it, they did it right. In this season five episode, Shirley gets her brother, Bobby (played by Primetime Emmy/SAG Award/Golden Globe nominee/friend of Cindy Williams, Ed Begley, Jr.), to confront his alcoholism.

Today in L&S HERstory… January 5, 1982: Our hopes of a Shirley/Carmine wedding were dashed when the episode “I Do, I Don’t” aired. A couple cancels their lavish, already-paid-for wedding, and Shirley jumps at the chance to marry Carmine in the wedding of her (and our) dreams. We finally got Shirley Feeney and Carmine Ragusa to the literal altar… and they didn’t get married. (Nevertheless, it’s still one of my personal favorite season seven episodes.)
