Henry Winkler was a guest on The Tonight Show yesterday and he made quite the entrance. Do you know how The Roots play a song for the guest as they walk over to Jimmy Fallon? Well, for the actor they played Hava Nagila. As soon as he heard the tune, he recreated The Fonz dance he did on Happy Days to it for everyone to enjoy.
He might not have done that dance since the ’70s, but he still has the moves at 73. What is even more amazing is that he did not even break a sweat. Which is why he will always be cool like The Fonz. Or I should say The Fonz is more like Henry Winkler than the opposite way around. Which is why we love him so much. That and he is the nicest guy in Hollywood.
It has been a crappy few weeks and we all want something that will bring us happiness. Here it is, Henry Winkler and a penguin. The pure joy in his loving face is what we all need today. Thus, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
Before Henry Winkler was a defense attorney on Arrested Development, he really needed one in Crazy Joe. He looks the same now as he did when he was 27 in that 1974 movie.
Forget the whitest song and dance number since Rob Lowe opened the Oscars. Or the flattest monologue since Kevin Spacey hosted the Tonys. The Emmys did not begin until Henry Winkler won Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for HBO’s Barry.
The nicest guy in Hollywood finally won his first Primetime Emmy since he was nominated back in 1976 for playing Arthur Fonzarelli on Happy Days. Talking about that show, The Fonz and Richie Cunnigham aka Ron Howard were reunited before the show started. I am happy the Oscar winner got to see his friend bring home the statuette. Who doesn’t love that the two Arrested Development stars are still close friends after all of these years. Oh, I get it now.
Back in the ’70s, teenage girls were obsessed with the clean-cut Henry Winkler and his complete opposite rocker Alice Cooper. Back then, the two could never meet up because The Fonz was in the ’50s and the other one was in current time.
That was then, this is now. The two extremes recently met up and gave the girls of the Disco era a dream ménage à trois. Sometimes you want to date the good guy and other times you don’t. Now you don’t have to choose. Hey, school’s out forever, no more Mrs. Nice Guy. Gives a whole new meaning to sit on it!
