Happy Days first aired on ABC in 1974 and ran until 1984, following the Cunningham family in 1950s Milwaukee and making Henry Winkler's Fonzie a pop culture icon. Its theme song, with the familiar Sunday Monday refrain, became one of television's most recognisable openings. Online, short clips of the music have been reused as a shorthand for nostalgia and good moods, shared in edits, chats and reaction videos where a brief retro cue instantly signals that things are going well for everyone involved in the scene today.
