„Schlemiel! Schlimazel! Hasenpfeffer Incorporated!“
“Schlemiel! Schlimazel! Hasenpfeffer Incorporated!”
It was the silly little chant coined by actors Penny Marshall and Cindy Williams, which marked the start of the star’s long-running ABC sitcom, Laverne & Shirley .
The series followed the lives of two best friends and roommates, Laverne DeFazio and Shirley Feeny, played by Marshall and Williams respectively, as they worked at Milwaukee bar Shotz Brewery before eventually moving to California to break into the movie industry. The series ran on the network for eight seasons, from 1976 to 1983.
Every episode of the series opened with the women, arm-in-arm, belting out the little jingle while walking down the street.
