I agree with blushes. I have an autographed 1st of "Exit to Eden." I read it about once a year. On my primary email, I use a line from it as my sig for email. I LOVE that book.
So, you can imagine my horror at learning that it was going to be thrown into a garbage disposal by the same inept jerk who produced Happy Days and Laverne and Shirley. I don't know which insult was worse: the addition of the "comedy relief team of O'Donell and Ackroyd, or the addition of the totally superfluous "diamond heist" subplot. (It was like something Diseny would do for one of those awful "Dexter Riley" college films.) The book deserved someone like the director from "Secretary" making it. Not this club handed moron who, in one interview, said: "Well, you have to dumb things like this down when you want middle America to accept them."
When an "artist" starts out disrespecting his audiance, you know the end result is going to suck!
Oh well, maybe in another 15 years, someone else can re-make it, and do a better job. (It wouldn't take much.)
Dana Delaney is a gorgeous woman, though....
Yeah, that might be the Ultimate Stinker. At least they cut out the scene with Fonzie, when Delaney is preparing to queen him, and he keeps yelling "sit on it! sit on it!"......
