To celebrate the award of the OBE to Henry Winkler- (the Fonz from Happy Days), here are five great things from that show.
1. The theme tune
2. It coined the phrase jumping the shark, the moment a previously good show goes bad.
3. It also coined the phrase Chuck Cunningham syndrome. The moment a character leaves a show, without explanation and is never referred to again. Other examples include Mandy Hampton from The West Wing and ward clerk Bob from ER.

4. It had a cameo from Tom Hanks.
5. Happy Days footage was used in this awesome Weezer music video for Buddy Holly. (it's an official video, so there is sometimes a short ad)
