On April 2, Winkler, 80, reposted a clip from the 1976 Happy Days episode “They Shoot Fonzies, Don’t They?" In the episode, his character Fonzie competes in a dance marathon—after pushing his broken motorcycle 12 miles to make it to the event. In the end, the magical Fonz gets a burst of energy to prevent a snooty opponent (Charlene Tilton) from beating him and partner, Joanie Cunningham (Erin Moran).
Shatner replied to note that he had seen the post of the Happy Days scene in which Winkler showed off his dance moves 50 years ago. “Henry! Speaking of Superman, I saw your repost of the Fonzie dance. I’m sure you can still do that,” Shatner wrote. “You want me to see if they have an opening on Dancing With The Stars next season?????? .”

And at age 80, Winkler wouldn’t be the first octogenarian to compete on Dancing With the Stars, should he change his mind. Past contestants have included astronaut Buzz Aldrin, then 80, and late actress Cloris Leachman, who was 82 at the time she competed on the celebrity ballroom show.
In 2011, Winkler told The Hollywood Reporterthat he enjoyed watching Dancing With the Stars, with an emphasis on “watching."
The TV legend then admitted there would perhaps be one way to get him to do Dancing with the Stars. “I would do it if Ron [Howard] was my partner,” the Happy Days star joked. “He’s like my younger brother.”
