HAPPY DAYS ARE OVER FOR ERIN MORAN

Gentle Reader, have you seen the classic television sitcom Happy Days? Do you remember cute Joanie Cunningham played by Erin Moran. She was fourteen years old when the sitcom started in 1974 and she was twenty-four years old when it was canceled ten years later. She became wealthy and she even got a spin-off series with Scott Baio entitled Joanie Loves Chachi (Which was canceled after only one season and never released in DVD, videotape or reruns. There was a time when she appeared to be invincible. Nothing could scratch her Teflon coating. She was the girl all guys wanted to date and she was the girl that other girls wanted to duplicate.

Joanie Cunningham loves Charles Chachi Arcola

Well, this story has a different sort of ending. Not the sort of ending that you expect. This story is about the darker side of fame. This story is about what could happen to the rich and famous if they take their fame for granted one time too many. She's broke and she got evicted from her Palmdale home when she couldn't make payments. She sued her former Happy Days employers saying that she was ripped off of royalty payments along with the estate of Tom Bosley, Don Most, Anson Williams and Marion Ross. And after burning her Happy Days bridge behind her, Erin Moran and her Wallmart Employee spouse Steve Fleischmann were living off of $65,000 (which was her share of the lawsuit winnings). She started to have screaming arguments with make-believe people. She got drunk (And possibly stoned too). Erin Moran and her spouse Steve Fleischmann moved from hotel to hotel before moving into a trailer park home of Steve Fleischmann's mother. And now Steve Fleischmann's mother kicked Erin Moran out of her house. So now Erin Moran, the once invincible beauty queen star of Happy Days is homeless and destitute. Her Happy Days lawsuit money now a distant memory, her former Happy Days employers too pissed off to help her find employment in Hollywood. Erin Moran might try to find employment at Wall Mart along with her spouse, but she's too drunk, stoned and lazy to make the effort. And now the Beauty Queen of Hollywood is panhandling because she thought she could keep getting second chances until she used up all her second chances and now has to rely on normal people instead of the Beautiful People of Hollywood. Except even the normal people can't stand the sight of Erin Moran either.
