I don't think many could deny having a soft spot for at least one of Marshall's films or television shows over the last 40-plus years.
From creating the beloved sitcoms Happy Days, Laverne & Shirley and Mork & Mindy to directing such hits as Young Doctors in Love, Nothing in Common, Pretty Woman and The Princes Diaries, Marshall excelled at delivering popular, relatable entertainment that never really tried to do much more than put a smile on its audience's faces.
Sure, many were a little schmaltzy and wore their hearts on their sleeves, but that's what we all liked about them, whether we admit it or not. They went down easy and didn't require too much thought. They made us laugh, cry and learn a little more about a thing called humanity. Not a bad legacy if you ask me.
