LOL!

It would have been nice to see Laverne give her a good whack. We always saw the aftermath of their fights.

Squiggy- Rosie Greenbaum? From the highschool?

Shirley- Yes!

Lenny- Is she still fat?

Laverne (in front of Rosie) YESSSS!!!!

LOOOL!

I LOVED Carole Ita White as Rosie Greenbaum. Totally wish that character had gotten more screen time. It's so interesting - in season 2, she was in almost every episode. In the coming years, less often.

Loved the drowning of the fox. Anyone else remember that from the 'Bridal Shower' episode?? Classic.

"Laverne & Shirley" did have a lot of lesbian subtext. There are several discussions about it on this board. I was just thinking about Laverne's arch enemy Rosie Greenbaum. The actress who played Rosie, Carole Ita White, is bisexual. Notthattheresanythingwrongwiththat. Please click on

I thought Carole Ita White overacted as Rosie. I guess that character was supposed to represent new money.

Laverne and Shirley liked men.

I'm just glad that homosexuality wasn't crammed in our faces in the 70's shows. I wish they'd stop pushing it on us. Real life,TV,movies,etc.

I'm sick of it.

What about Rhonda Lee from the California seasons? Would she be considered a West Coast Rosie? I think Laverne disliked Rhonda, but there wasn't hatred like with Rosie.

Why did Shirley try so hard to stop Laverne and Rosie from fighting?

Carol Ita White was great! I loved her character. Isn't she Jesse White's daughter?

Carol Ita White was great!

I'll second that!

Rhonda Lee in the first few California episodes was the same rich, condescending snob type as Rosie was.

BUT then she did a 180 degree change. Rhonda became the lovable but dense, struggling actresses who would raid the girls kitchen for food.
