http://omg.yahoo.com/video/yo-john-lennons-surprise-set-002007003.html Anson Williams shares a story from the "Happy Days" set, telling us about the time when John Lennon and his son Julian visited the set. Anson explains how kind Lennon was, and how the father and son spent 12 hours with the cast on set. He explains his passion for directing television and shares with us what he is working on today... On another note: Paul McCartney was depicted in a "Happy Days" spin off called "Joanie Loves Chachi" where a bass player identified as Marvin O. Pizika had the spitting image of Paul McCartney of The Beatles. Though Joanie and Chachi thought this was really Paul McCartney, he wasn't. ops: In the end, they all agreed he was Marvin O. Pizika. Later a friend of Marvin's stop by to pick up Marvin. He looked like ....I won't give it away. Mitch Weissman of the Original "BEATLEMANIA" Broadway musical of the 1970s played Marvin.

Unfortunately, my location - at the other end of the world - would not allow me to view this. But it does sound fascinating..... And I do recall the episode you are referring to... I couldn't have told you if it was Happy Days (a good show before Richie left) or Joanie Loves Chachi (a terrible show on all fronts), but I do recall it... Of course Happy Days thrives in syndication, but the spin-off won't be gracing (or disgracing) our screens soon, so not sure when I will see that again... Oh well, I could try to You-Tube it, but then I will get side-tracked and won't leave my apartment for a month.

I remember that Joanie Loves Chaci episode. God, I'm old.
