How A Meeting With Henry Winkler Almost Made W. Kamau Bell Cry
While Henry Winkler’s Fonzie from Happy Days was a household name back in 70s, people today know him better as the Emmy winning supporting actor on HBO’s Barry. After an illustrious career in the industry, Winkler landed his first ever Primetime Emmy for his performance in Barry. And now that Barry Season 2 is even less than 2 weeks away, Winkler is honing his claws for yet another Academy honor.
Recently Winkler had a guest over for breakfast. And the Barry star left him in complete awe with his adorable persona. The United Shades Of America fame stand-up comedian W. Kamau Bell met with Winkler. And by the end of the day, he could not keep himself from crying.

1) Once again he proves how great a person he is by knowing to keep my baby's face out of the picture.
2) He & his wife were the nicest people ever to my kids.
