You may currently be a fan of The Simpsons and Modern Family, but years back you would have been eagerly watching The Odd Couple, Happy Days, and Laverne and Shirley. We can thank Garry Marshall for these earlier series and much more on television and at the theaters (Pretty Woman, The Princess Diaries). Snark was not all the rage and social commentary was not the main goal.
Sadly, Mr. Marshall passed away yesterday at the age of 81. Viewers will always remember his positive contributions to the airwaves and silver screens. Some of it may have been family and friendship schmaltz, but it was what we needed at times and still need more of today.
