But early on, one of the main stars of the series had doubts that the show would make it.
“Once we had finished rehearsal and we were going to do the show, shoot it in front of a live audience, we knew that if this works, you know, this could be a lot of fun,” McKean, 78, recalled. “But right before the very first scene, Cindy Williams turned to the rest of us and said, ‘You know this is going to flop but you guys are so much fun, let's do something else. Let's open a pie shop or something, a car wash. It doesn't matter, we're going to have a good time.’”
While Marshall and Williams admitted they thought the show would get canceled after 13 weeks, McKean acknowledged that none of them knew what they were getting into when Laverne & Shirley debuted in 1976.

Lenny & Squiggy weren’t originally meant to be main characters
McKean, who created his Lenny character as part of a comedy act with Lander years earlier, revealed he was originally hired as an apprentice writer for Laverne & Shirley because he wasn’t in the Screen Actors Guild. Producers thought they’d pay him and Lander “a little something” and then maybe work their characters in for “a few shows down the line.”
