HE'S STILL GOT IT!

Don Most recalls his time on Happy Days as Ralph Malph for The CW's TV We Love

- BY ILEANE RUDOLPH

LAST WINTER, AT a Pittsburgh comic con, Ron Howard, Henry Winkler, Don Most and Anson Williams were mobbed by three generations of Happy Days fans. "They told us how much the show meant to them when they were going through rough times, and how they were now watching it with their kids and grandkids," recalls Most, who played jokester Ralph Malph for seven seasons.

The lovefest began with creator Garry Marshall developing a sweet family comedy set in the halcyon 1950s, when soda shops and sock hops ruled. Combining the warmth of Milwaukee's Cunningham family, led by parents Howard and Marion (Tom Bosley and Marion Ross), and the hijinks of teen son Richie (Howard) and his crew of Ralph, Potsie Weber (Williams) and, later, Arthur "Fonzie" Fonzarelli (Winkler), Happy Days was a welcome refuge from the social unrest of the '70s.
