Other mistake: The background action in the opening credits is slightly unsynchronized. This is most obvious at the "Goodbye gray sky, hello blue" line in the theme song, as Potsie mouths the lyrics. It's also obvious at the "My cycle hums" line, as the girl in the blue plaid skirt shows up at "cycle", rather than "my." (01:13:10)
Happy Days (1974)
1 other mistake in A Place of His Own - chronological order
Starring: Ron Howard, Henry Winkler, Marion Ross, Tom Bosley, Erin Moran
Factual error: The show is set in the fifties but Fonzie has a Mustang hubcap on the wall of his garage. The first Mustang came out in 1964.
Richie Cunningham: So how did you do on that social studies test?
Potsie Weber: I missed that question on Alaska. I hear they want to make it a state now.
Richie Cunningham: That'll never happen.
Trivia: Henry Winkler (Fonzie), Marion Ross (Marion Cunningham), and Tom Bosley (Howard Cunningham) are the only actors to appear in all 255 episodes of the show.
Question: How could the play "The Rainmaker" still be performed after Fonzie scared off the director?
