The Hub Network is paying tribute to the legendary actor Robin Williams with a special airing of the Happy Days episode "My Favorite Orkan," which will air two times in succession on Friday, August 15 at 9pm and 9:30pm ET/6pm and 6:30 pm PT. This episode introduced the now famous alien Mork and landed Williams his first starring television role in the popular sitcom Mork & Mindy. Fans everywhere will get to enjoy the episode with the alternative ending that paved the way for Mork & Mindy with an on air tribute during the hour in honor of this Oscar award-winning actor and beloved comedian. In "My Favorite Orkan," Richie (Ron Howard) seemingly dreams about an alien named Mork (guest star Robin Williams) who tries to take him back to his home planet, but must compete with Fonzie (Henry Winkler) first who will not let Mork take his best friend without a fight. And as we mentioned, MeTV remembered the legendary Robin Williams on Tuesday (August 11) by airing his first appearance as Mork on Happy Days and another episode ("Mork Returns") last night (August 12) at 8:30. Stay with us for more updates on any other tributes or marathons.
