What year did Laverne & Shirley end?

Laverne & Shirley was an American sitcom television series that aired on ABC from January 1976 to May 1983. It starred Penny Marshall and Cindy Williams as Laverne DeFazio and Shirley Feeney, respectively, two friends and roommates who work as bottle-cappers in the fictitious Shotz Brewery in late 1950s Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The show was a spin-off from Happy Days, as the two lead characters were originally introduced on that series as acquaintances of Fonzie (Henry Winkler).

The series had a total of 178 episodes over its run, with its final episode airing on May 10, 1983. It also spawned an animated spin-off series, Laverne & Shirley in the Army, and a variety of merchandise, including a series of comic books and games. Despite its popularity, the show was plagued by numerous production and cast changes, including the departure of several cast members in the middle of its run.

Thus, Laverne & Shirley ended in 1983 after a 7-year run.
