This is a list of episodes from the first season of Happy Days.
The pilot for the series was aired on February 25, 1972, as part of an episode of Love, American Style in a segment titled "Love and the Television Set". For syndication reruns, this was retitled "Love and the Happy Days." The role of sister Joanie was played by 12-year-old Susan Neher. Father Howard was played by Harold Gould, and brother Chuck (/Charles) was played by Ric Carrott.
The plot centers around how the Cunninghams buy their first television set, an expensive rare novelty in the 1950s, and Potsie convinces Richie to use that as an enticement to get a girl to agree to a date, which he does but in the end Richie gets crushed. His father uses his wisdom of experience to console him. Howard is so entranced by his new TV that he sits alone in the living room watching nothing but a test pattern and tone.
