 For Lynda Goodfriend, this was the second transition from one Marshall series to another.After the cancellation of "Blansky's", Goodfriend took up Marshall's offer to join the cast of "Happy Days" as the 1977-78 season began, playing Lori Beth Allen, the new love interest of Richie Cunningham (Ron Howard).If "Legs" went on to be a successful series, it is presumed that Marshall would have written off the character of Lori Beth on "Happy Days" in order for Goodfriend to commit to her co-starring role on the new show.
