Boy when they said Ron Howard was on board, they meant it. Heā€™s a cast member now.

ULTIMATE HAPPY DAYS JOKES COMING!!!

I didnā€™t think Ron Howard had much of anything to do with the show apart from being the narrator (and I guess a token executive producer credit).

I usually despise Ron Howardā€™s movies; I hope he never directs an episode. Heā€™s fine as an actor though.

Yeah, Chachi and Fonz better be back too.

LOL Where the hell is Ralphie at these days? They need to get everyone back. Too bad Pat Morita is dead. He could have been in drag. :tup:

Well, Ron has been a HUGE supporter of the show from day 1. He has been involved in the production of the show and one of itā€™s buiggest champions, so I take his confidence as at minimum a hopeful signā€¦

Didnā€™t he put up money from his pocket for this show?

Anyways, hope the writers still got it in them to do thisā€¦

Heā€™s an EP, so by definition, he put up money for the showā€¦

Seems like weā€™re looking at 13 episodes rather than 10, according to David Cross.

More episodes is good news! Iā€™m really hoping the writing is up to the level fans hope forā€¦

Inb4 ā€œS4 isnā€™t as good as the othersā€ comments

Itā€™s all the same people involved, I donā€™t see why it wonā€™t be good. Itā€™s not like Community and the big question mark without Dan Harmon.

The best episodes of Community arenā€™t 1/10 as good as AEā€™s worst.

Remedial Chaos Theory would like to have a word with youā€¦

Still doesnā€™t begin to approach AE imo. Opinions and assholes I guessā€¦

Tomato, Tomato :wink:

Community and AE are both great. The people who think they have to choose between one or the other get to have one favorite comedy and I get to have more than oneā€¦ so na na na boo boo.

G.O.B. chicken dance

I canā€™t put ANYTHING on the level of AD, itā€™s just the best show ever IMO. However, I donā€™t think it overshadows Community by a grand margin. Also, I donā€™t really think itā€™s fair to compare them. Community takes bigger risks while AD has more jokes per minute than any series ever.

Yeah, AE = AD because Iā€™m retarded :sweat:.

^^^ Motherfucker got me doing it, too. I didnā€™t even think about it.

I donā€™t proofread as well after a few beers.
