Guest Suggestion: Henry Winkler
« on: September 04, 2010, 02:00:13 PM »
As a fan of The Gorch, I have to ask:  when will Henry Winkler be a guest on the show and confront the real-life 'basis' for The Fonz?  If that were to happen it would be EPIC.

(And please forgive me if this has been discussed elsewhere as this is my first post to this board.)

Yes!  How did you know?! -sob-  So many years of ridicule...

No not really.  My name really rhymes with Don Draper but my last name isn't 'Raper'.*

And I'm happy that the first person to reply to me on this board is Fredericks.

*It's 'Lon Scraper'!

I am really Jay Draper. I need to see this Mad Men show to understand why people are always talking about people with my last name, and I get confused.

Hey Rhymes With ...

If you haven't seen it already, this thread contains links to a video where somebody asks Winkler about the Gorch:

Ignorance is bliss, for many.

Yes, I've seen it, and the fact that the Winkler seems open to the idea only wets my appetite.  Imagine it:  The Winkler vs. The Gorch!  Hows about it?

Fredericks is warmer, Dave.   :)

I could have told you that, but which of us is closer to guessing your name?
