Potsie shouldve gotten more girls

I think it was Ron Howard who said that Potsie, originally, was meant to be a sort of older and wiser character for Richie to look up to. Then, as Fonzie began to get more and more popular and take on that role, they had to do something with Potsie. Since his previous position no longer made sense, they appear to have decided to make him into more of a comic relief character (often paired with Ralph), which I always thought was a shame.

Potsie was pretty much Richie's sidekick. And sidekicks don't usually get as many dates as main characters. After a couple seasons the writers turned Potsie into a real dope. Maybe that was why he was not more popular with girls.

That happens on TV. By the fifth season of "The Brady Bunch" Jan was prettier than Marcia, but Jan had no dates. It didn't make much sense. I guess the writers deemed Jan the homely sister, which was very far from the truth.

That was a good episode! And that could have been a nice ending to the show, although the Chachi and Joanie wedding was very nice too.
