ABC's The Happy Days of Garry Marshall is a joyous special

The Hollywood Reporter

Tuesday's two-hour tribute to late creator of Happy Days and Mork & Mindy "absolutely made me laugh, caused my heart to swell and, even if it didn't wring full-on tears from me, it generated a surge of emotion in the end," says Daniel Fienberg. "For all the places it could have offered more depth or detail, it did those things instead, and I'm sure Marshall would have approved. The thing you come away from The Happy Days of Garry Marshall feeling, with the most certainty, is that people loved working with him. You probably already suspected as much from the loose, spirited joy of his early TV hits and even from the star-glutted excesses of the holiday-themed trilogy that capped his career."
