FOLLOW THAT CAR Commenting on Californians predilection for personalized license plates, Redd Foxx observed, "If you see a car with a license plate that reads Aaaaaaaaav! thats the Fonz. If one reads Kotter you know it's Gabe Kaplan's wheels and, if you see one with a license plate that reads you know that's a stolen car. Now that Anson Williams has a recording career and appears as a concert headliner, do you know if he has any plans for his own TV show? Libby Camp, Akron, Ohio.

A. Anson has already recorded one TV social, 'Anson Williams at Seaworld, and might do others. And yes, you might be seeing more of Anson Williams in a TV show. The producers of 'Happy Days are planning a spin-off show which will feature Donny Most and Anson in an expansion of their roles on the show, Ralph and Potsie. Q.

I think that Joan Rivers is one of the funniest people around, and would love to see more of her. Can you tell me anything about her plans, or if shes going to be in anymore shows? Thanks. Mike CuMer, Scranton, Pa. Joan has plenty of plans, but the project thats taken up most of her time recently is one where she won't be seen. The project is a movie due for release next February called "Rabbit Tfest," which Joan both co-wrote and directed.

Needless to say, the Rivers' sense of humor plays a large part in this movie which is about the worlds first pregnant man. I just bought the new Alan Parsons Project album, I and really like it. The problem is, Ive never heard anything else by him. Who is Alan Parsons, and what else has he done? Greg Miles, Chevy Chase, Maryland.

I saw the first of the new Donny and Marie rfiows last week and notice an incredible difference in Maries appearance. What happen? Susan Frenk, Mobile, Al. A. Besides getting a new haircut, Mane had an entirely new wardrobe designed for her by Bob Mackie, the man responsible for Cher's amazing costumes. The Osmond family felt that the look of the show should reflect the fact that Donny and Mane are growing up and judging by the reactions, they seem to have succeeded.

During the Rock Awards show on television recently, I saw one of the Bee Gees sitting with Andy Gibb. My brother says that Andy is the Bee Gees brother, but I disagreed. Can you settle the argument for us? Kristy Caan, Hobart, III. You lose hands down, Kristy. The Bee Gees are Barry, Maurice and Robin Gibb and Andy is the fourth brother in the family.

Andy is 19, and lives with the rest of his family (Apart from Robin Who lives in England) in Florida. Andy seems to have just as much talent as the rest of his family, and his recent No 1 hit single, I Just Want To Be Your Everything, has made him one of the hottest new singers to emerge this year.
