Howard and Winkler Celebrate Happy Days at Emmys

The 2024 Emmys featured a nostalgic reunion of 'Happy Days' stars Henry Winkler and Ron Howard to celebrate the show's 50th anniversary. The duo took the stage at a recreated set of Arnold’s Drive-In and joked about the absence of their theme song, leading Winkler to perform his iconic jukebox move. They presented the award for best directing in a comedy series and Winkler praised Howard for his recent Emmy win for the documentary 'Jim Henson Idea Man'. The reunion highlighted their enduring friendship and the lasting impact of 'Happy Days', which aired from 1974 to 1984. Both actors have continued successful careers, with Howard becoming a renowned director and Winkler winning an Emmy for his role in 'Barry'. The event was part of a broader wave of nostalgia at the Emmys, hosted by Eugene and Dan Levy.
