The theme song “Sunday, Monday, Happy Days” instantly brings back memories of the beloved sitcom *Happy Days,* which aired for 11 seasons from 1974 to 1984. The show, set in 1950s Milwaukee, followed the Cunningham family, with Ron Howard starring as Richie. The series became a cultural phenomenon, especially with Henry Winkler’s portrayal of Fonzie, a character who became iconic in television history.
Ron Howard left after seven seasons to focus on directing, later achieving great success with films like *Apollo 13* and *The Da Vinci Code*. Winkler, known for his role as Fonzie, continued his acting career and won an Emmy for his role in *Barry*.
Other cast members, like Don Most and Anson Williams, transitioned into music and directing, respectively, while Scott Baio, known as Chachi, continued acting and recently moved to Florida. The cast’s enduring friendships and successful careers beyond *Happy Days* reflect the lasting impact of the show on their lives and pop culture.
