James is a puritan: a beekeeper, a man who splits elm at 20° below zero, a myth maker whose hero is Ethan Allen, not the Fonz. James hates Snoopy, Coca-Cola, California, astronauts (they are there to "undo him") and, above all, television.

...Firecrackers. ABC programming executives promptly decided to keep Tuscadero and her bike in high gear. She will probably not be around to tempt the Fonz again for a while, but she may be riding off on her own. The network is rushing ahead with a pilot for a new series featuring Kelly as Pinky. (Happy Days has already spawned one successful spinoff, Laverne and Shirley.) Kelly, a New York actress who played a hooker in Deathwish and Barbra Streisand's roommate in The Owl and the Pussycat, says she knew the Fonzie-in-love idea would...
