“Laverne & Shirley” was a spin-off of ABC’s successful “Happy Days” sitcom. The comedy aired from 1976 to 1983, starring Penny Marshall and Cindy Williams as two single women living in MIlwaukee in the late 1950s and 1960s.

There was an animated spin-off, “Laverne & Shirley in the Army,” which aired on Saturday mornings in 1981 on ABC.
