Bryce Dallas Howard Never Watched Dad Ron Howard Happy Days

Bryce Dallas Howard revealed in multiple interviews on Busy Philipps' show Busy This Week that she has never watched an episode of the classic sitcom Happy Days, despite the show starring her father, Ron Howard, and her godfather, Henry Winkler. She expressed affection for both men and the show's cast but could not explain why she never viewed the series, even though reruns often aired during her childhood. Howard also mentioned that her siblings likely have not watched the show either. While she has not seen Happy Days, she does enjoy watching The Andy Griffith Show, another series featuring her father. Additionally, Bryce shared that she was not allowed to act as a child, with her parents encouraging her to gain experience outside of acting before entering the profession. This candid admission highlights a surprising gap in her familiarity with a significant piece of television history connected to her family.
