Laverne & Shirley is an American television sitcom that ran on ABC from January 27, 1976 to May 10, 1983. It starred Penny Marshall as Laverne De Fazio and Cindy Williams as Shirley Feeney, single roommates who worked as bottlecappers in a fictitious Milwaukee brewery called "Shotz Brewery." The show was a spin-off from Happy Days, as the two lead characters were originally introduced on that series as acquaintances of Fonzie. Set in roughly the same time period, the timeline started in approximately 1958, when the series began, through 1967, when the series ended. As with Happy Days, it was made by Paramount Television, created by Garry Marshall, and executive produced by Garry Marshall, Edward K. Milkis, and Thomas L. Miller.

It is so good and every episode is so funny
Just a classic sitcom. Sure, some jokes don’t land today, but the women have great chemistry together.
I don’t remember much about it, but I do remember laughing a lot, and wanting a cursive letter on my sweaters.
A great sitcom that ended up more beloved and popular than the one it spun off of. Penny Marshall’s Laverne is hands down the linchpin.
It’s okay! Probably funnier and more relevant in its own time.
Not aged well, made worse by it not being any good in the first place.
Fun old sitcom
It was funny when I was a teenager
