@Woody Last Name, while the Pearly Gates are clearly a Christian term, your faux outrage is unnecessary. Jew believe in returning to God. While they aren't as focused on an afterlife as Christians are they certainly do believe there is something else out there when we are gone. You know Harry meant no offense to Landers so stop trying to stir up shit. I'm an atheist myself and take no offense at any of it.
I call my oldest grandson Squiggy because he says Hello every time he comes into a room. He is 14 so I had to show him this video so he would know who Squiggy was.
@@melindakilgore3088 I may not have been alive before the 1991 but I love living through the 60's 70s and 80s every day via TV on CHCH. Right now it's I love Lucy, Bewitched, Sanford And Son (My all time favorite) Laverne and Shirley, Hogans Heroes, One Day At A Time and The Jeffersons but other greats have been in the schedule too like I Dream Of Jeannie, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, The Bob Newhart Show, Newhart, Charlies Angels. We may have the golden age of tv today when it comes to everything else but those were the golden days of comedy on tv.
I nicknamed a cat Squiggy cause every time I come into the room he's in he whines in that same tone at me. His name at first was Squeaker because of his high pitched whine when he was the runt kitten. He's outgrown his siblings and has a more husky squeak now, hence the new nickname. Had to show my Daughter this vid since she didn't get it. Loved the show when I was a kid.
Awww... ❤😆 I'm a 70s kid (1971). My name is similar to Laverne and people would ALWAYS get it wrong and call me Laverne. I HATED IT but I LOVED Laverne & Shirley. My older brother would joke and call me Laverne (cause he knew it bothered me) to which I would respond with a punch on the shoulder. So he started calling me Shirley. It stuck. We're 50 something now and every now and then he lets a Shirley slip. ❤
"If there's two more pathetic people than us right now, I'd like to see them!" --Laverne [Lenny and Squiggy plow through their apartment door] "HELLO!" --Squiggy.
God rest his talented soul forever and ever and thanks for laughter and joy in this world David Lander aka squiggy you will be greatly missed by all of us who have the opportunity to remember you fondly as squiggy
Never even knew his name. Just looked up "Hello girls", because it's been in my head for years, and found this. His entrances were what made the show for me when I was a kid. Really didn't care so much about the story line, but those entrances. They were something. RIP David.
Coming here to cheer myself up abit after hearing about David's passing R.I.P. David L. Lander You will be missed alot but I'm glad you brought tons of laughter and joy with your performances (I don't know if that came out corny but I tried)
Their timing on that show was incredible, but they left out maybe the best one ever. In one episode a huge bear had somehow gotten into Laverne and Shirley's apartmen, when Squiggy walked in and said "Hello..." Lenny immediately said "Goodbye!" and they ran out! LOL
+jennifersman No kidding? I don't remember that one. Just cruising youtube now, and remembering my mom. This was her favorite tv show. My favorite episode was when the girls had to act a commercial where they were in the talons of a pterodactyl, and were being repeatedly slung around in foam claws.
+yoyoBrando what I remember about that one was Ed Marinaro (future Hill Street Blues actor) was playing some friend of Laverne's and trying to find a job in Milwaukee
The costumes at 00:37 were from the 1965 TV special "Alice Through the Looking Glass." Agnes Moorehead originally wore the Red Queen costume, and the Smothers Brothers were Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum.
Squiggy ruled. When I was in first grade, I thought Squiggy was the funniest guy around (until Mork showed up). Also, being of Italian descent, I thought The Big Ragu was the coolest dude ever!
I love this, but what's missing is all of the same "Hellos" with the comments the girls made just before their entrance. A list like that would be phenomenal.
@@michaelcummingsherrera1232 It would be like a video compilation of Maynard G. Krebs coming in and saying, "You rang?" without the comments that preceded his entrance.
And by the time he was reunited with Julie Kavner, who he previously worked with on Rhoda, it could be the Yiddish-sounding Marge Simpson who declared Squiggy "ruined." Penny's work as a neighbor of Mary Richards, who like Brenda and Rhoda Morgenstern was created by Simpsons co-producer James L. Brooks, set the stage for Laverne DeFazio as well.
