I also love this tweet.

A new People magazine article about Vivian’s final days. https://people.com/tv/the-day-lucille-ball-said-goodbye-to-costar-vivian-vance/

Ruta Lee remembers Alex Trebek. https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/tv/story/2020-11-09/alex-trebek-jeopardy-dead-ruta-lee-high-rollers From this interview we can deduce that Lucy’s appearance on High Rollers was taped the same day as Lucy’s December 1975 Tonight Show appearance (same outfit).

“American Songbook Association” interview.

I certainly hope Lucy saw this review from The Chicago Defender!

Marge Champion has died at the age of 101.

I don’t recall any other breaking news. In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month, they mainly took questions about what Desi would think about certain current events and what advice he would give. I hope they continue to do these videos. Next time they should make it so they can continue to be viewed afterwards. They made it seem like they were looking for another actress to play Lucy and planning to proceed with the project.

Lucie and Kate did a great Instagram Live today and mentioned that, with all the production delays, Cate is no longer attached to the picture.

This is so great! 😃

A new I Love Lucy cookbook will be released in January. The I Love Lucy Cookbook: Classic Recipes Inspired by the Iconic TV Show https://www.amazon.com/dp/0762471808/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_fab_SWYCFb7Z3ETDH

Lucie joins Billy Stritch’s tribute to Mel Torme to talk about Main Street USA, Ginger Rogers, Liza Minnelli, and more! Starts at 37:00.

Good question. I think the first time the baby’s name was mentioned was in the flashback opening of The Audition rerun.

It was definitely interesting to see a two hour documentary about Lucy that had the 1950s end at the halfway point. Great clips! I imagine most the clips came from YouTube (it seemed like some of the I Love Lucy ones were HD). If this was 15 years ago, I bet all of it would be public domain stuff. It seems like once YouTube came along, they stopped policing these things. It was nice to see The Lucy Show praised so much. Here’s Lucy got the short shrift. I don’t think they mentioned the kids involvement at all. I also don’t think Gale’s name was mentioned, although he was seen in quite a few clips. They were pretty factual until the end when they said she died on April 25. 🤨 The overall theme seemed to be “Woman Power!” rather than then typical “Lucy & Desi love story,” although they did loop back to that at the end. Overall, this exceeded my original expectations. It was nice to see such time spent on the post-I Love Lucy years and in a generally positive way.

Cher... and Other Fantasies, Cher’s 1979 special that featured Lucy, is now available on DVD as part of a pricy Cher box set from Time Life. https://timelife.com/products/the-best-of-cher I’m very surprised the Cher episode with Cloris Leachman and Jack Albertson isn’t included. Both guest stars won Emmys for their work in it.
