Opie is back? And so's Richie Cunningham? And the Fonz?
Yes, you read that right. Ron Howard now is an Oscar-winning director but returns to his two most famous acting roles as Opie and Richie. It's for a video (courtesy of funnyordie.com) urging people to vote on Nov. 4. (And, let's be upfront. He's for Barack Obama. Sorry, John McCain.)
Howard is joined by Andy Griffith, who played Opie's pa on Griffith's classic self-titled show, and Henry Winkler, who was The Fonz to Howard's Richie on "Happy Days."
Frankly, I think The Fonz has the best lines in this piece, but you be the judge.

I don't care what your political views are, this was the lamest thing I've ever seen in my life. And how on earth did Ron Howard grow all that hair? Everyone knows he's cue-ball bald.

What's so lame about the video?? The stars of some very old tv shows that tons of people remember, come back to reprise their roles. I think it's awesome, you are not. As for his hair, some genius at Industrial Light and Magic invented these things called wigs. I know, technology nowadays, who'da thunk it???
