H-B had also decided to send primetime icons Laverne & Shirley into the Army over on ABC, but Olive & Alice, it seems, got the better of the deal. They had a female commanding officer in Sgt. Bertha Blast (Jo Anne Worley, ex-Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In), while Laverne & Shirley were stuck with a pig (Ron Palillo, ex-Welcome Back, Kotter). Both series lasted two seasons, with Laverne & Shirley being joined by their pal Fonzie (Henry Winkler) for season 2.
One of these days, I'll find a Laverne & Shirley in the Army clip, but for now, here's Olive & Alice in "Snow Foolin'":
And ya wonder why this show aired at the bottom of CBS' lineup......

Well, at least the cartoons should have a Laugh track in future reruns.
I don't think that would even help, Dennis. It was that bad.
