Been watching an old TV series l'd never heard of before called, Love American Style'... it's a sitcom about romance, relationships and marriage, made in the 60's(?).

Anyway...it has different actors and storylines each episode. What l have deduced thus far is ..no IR couples (only bw/bm ww/wm)...and while the black characters are close in age and attractiveness, the wm are mostly older Jewish men with young gorgeous Swedish looking or Raquel Welch looking beauties. And these women routinely lust after them.

Oh to be in control of the studios and sitcoms back then....all their fantasies playing out through the lens. :rolleyes:

I had grown up watching Love American Style when I was at home sick and could not come to school. The sitcom Happy Days was born from an episode. The show made a comeback in the 80's (the theme song was sung by Lou Rawls). Though it never had any IR in either show, it was what it was.

They're supposed to strap in for a reason tho.....that's why u should report them when you see them eating while driving, talking on the phone or doing other shit that be causin accidents/taking attention away from passengers

You're putting your life into their hands every time you ride.....plus...do you know how many times I had to yell at them to stop the bus and let me off because they weren't paying attention to their sign

Love American Style launched Happy Days like Tracey Ullman launched The Simpsons. I think it came on after Love American Style went off the air. I would not be surprised if Garry Marshall & Jerry Parris were behind the creation of Love American Style. Why not? Paramount Pictures produced it along with Laverne & Shirley. I also think Ron Howard was in that episode of Love American Style. I wouldn't be surprised since Howard appeared on many television shows and film's.

Yes was aware of Tracy's involvement.

I thought you meant Happy Days characters from the show were in an episode of Love American style, not that it preceeded the show as a launching pad for HD's.

Dude...how about when they take corners and you are on the crosswalk sidewalk waiting to cross. I've reported one..he almost hit me. They don't swing out, just cut corners.

Also they never let you take one step after paying your fare to go sit before they take off full throttle. They speed, and hit bumps hard, they dgaf.

Yeah I almost took a few L's just because the driver pulled a quick start before I could grab a pole lol

And they are indeed supposed to swing out.....I never seen one cut a corner but that sounds pretty gangsta

Hopefully by 2016 we won't be so ridiculously pc sensitive that comedy will be outlawed (re: Adam Sandler's comedy debacle BS).

Seriously I called this months ago when the real movie came out

It was too obvious

The movie had tons of hype and I'm assuming everyone in it was white (which probably put off many black viewers given the genre), so you could see why there would be a minority spoof or something
