Come and knock on our door! We'll be waiting for booze! Joyce DeWitt, aka Janet from Three's Company, was busted for DUI over the weekend. Now let's switch theme songs for a moment and sing "give us any chance we'll take it, give us any booze we'll drank it" because guess who was pulled over for the same offense? Eddie Mekka! AKA Carmine Ragusa from Laverne & Shirley! TMZ has the flattering mug shots and the stories:
Law enforcement sources tell us DeWitt drove past a barricade Saturday afternoon — and when an officer approached her, she smelled like booze. She was given field sobriety tests and then arrested for suspicion of DUI. The 60-year-old actress, who played Janet Wood on the 80's sitcom, posted bail for $5,000.
The guy who played Carmine "The Big Ragoo" Ragusa on "Laverne and Shirley" was arrested last Friday in Las Vegas after he allegedly got into a drunken car crash.
Law enforcement sources tell us they received a call at around 12:30 PM about a collision with a "suspected drunk driver." When officers arrived, they found Eddie Mekka and administered field sobriety tests.
Janet and The Big Ragu in one week. Right after Farrah and Michael leave us. All our childhood icons are either croaking or drunk drivers! Next thing you know, Tootie Ramsay and Jo Polniaczek get busted for cashing bad checks on a meth binge and Slim Goodbody admits to steroid use. Just crap on my youth a little more, why don't you.

Has she kept that haircut for 30 years or recently returned to it?
Wouldn't YOU keep it?
Don't ask me. I've had Mr. Furley's 'do for 17 years, 6 months, and 2 days.
Her horrible accent haunts my dreams. “Owe Jyyyaackk!!!”
