Howdy, sailor! For Pleased Days‘ leather-clad cool man The Fonz, that playful greeting may actually imply “Hello, dad!” After years of claiming he hadn’t seen his papa since he was a child (extra on that in a bit), Arthur “Fonzie” Fonzarelli lastly lays eyes on the person who sired him within the Season 6 episode “Christmas Time,” which aired Dec. 9, 1978. Downside is, doesn’t know the man’s his dad till he’s gone once more.
Right here’s what went down when Fonzie (Henry Winkler) lastly met his actual father on Pleased Days.
