Laverne's Boyfriends?


Who did Laverne date for more than one episode?

reply

Sonny the Stunt Man and the manager of their building when they moved to CA. He only lasted half a season, too bad...he was pretty d@mn hot.

reply

Duh. I should have remembered Ed Marinaro as Sonny St. Jacques.

She dated a biker named jake the snake in a few of the Milwaukee episodes. She mentioned his name a few times in different episodes, but we only saw him in 1 episode. She saw his true colors when he robbed a grocery store.

reply

Sonny, their California landlord/stuntman
Norman, cop in Milwaukee
Ted Nelson, fireman in Milwaukee
Fonzie, Aaaaaayyyy...

reply

I forgot about Norman the Cop and Fonzie I guess I didn't count because I never really considered him one of her boyfriends since her dates with him were just a plot device to cross over L&S with Happy Days. (but she did go on more than one date with him so you are correct).

Which one was Ted Nelson? I remember Randy the Fireman (played by Ted Danson) who was going to propose to her but died tragically. (but that was all in one episode).


I guess we can count Sal Malina too since he appeared in 2 episodes and she almost married him in both.

That was so sad, when Ted Danson's character died. I was very young when I first saw that episode and wasn't used to anything but a happy ending...

reply

I remember when Mrs. Babish called Norman "Tubby".

I remember Fonz was Laverne's date for the first episode "The Society Party". I thought he was a real jerk for staying at the party and barely sticking up for Laverne & Shirley. Laverne also had a double date with Fonz and Shirley with Richie on an episode of "Happy Days".

Most grown men would only continue to date women that would vo de oh do (spelling?).

reply

I have seen vo dee oh doh doh spelled a few ways. Is there really a definitive way to spell something that sounds like gibberish?
