Seasonal Quote Thread


Recommended Posts

To test our "Lucy" memories, let's try to pick a random quote from each season of any Lucy series, or from her films and specials. No context is needed and it can be any line from any character. 

I Love Lucy

Season 1: "Now there's a monumental conclusion!"
Season 2: "It isn't every day that Mr. and Mrs. Fred Mertz celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary."
Season 3: "I'm Ernest Ford from Bent Fork, Tennessee."
Season 4: "There's a sign on the door but I can't see it from here."
Season 5: "Make up your mind, I can't do both."
Season 6: "Now Ethel, don't get panicky!"
LDCH: "Look! Ethel is even trying to leave Fred behind!"

The Lucy Show

Season 1: "She's before my time, too."
Season 2: "How much are we going to lose?"
Season 3: "He bought this for his wife?"
Season 4: "Oh, I mustn't forget to send this postcard to Aunt Viv and her new husband."
Season 5: "I am Margo from Margo's Mad, Mad Mod Interiors."
Season 6: "Oh, it's Ruta Lee, the big movie star!"

Here's Lucy

Season 1: "And no matter how much it hurts us, we're gonna enjoy ourselves!"
Season 2: "Mr. Welk, I think it's just wunnerful how you say wunnerful."
Season 3: "I'm profoundly moved. It almost makes up for not winning the Oscar."
Season 4: "They're burnin' Atlanta! They wouldn't dare!"
Season 5: "Boy, what a time to run outta gas!"
Season 6: "I knew it would end this way."

Life With Lucy

Season 1: "You know, being despised takes a lot out of you."

Did you want us to try to identify which episodes these are from and name them? I can do a lot of them (but not all) without double-checking actual titles from Wiki or wherever.....

Great idea! "Being despised..." would've been my go-to LWL option. My choices might be a little bit "normie" but I'll give it a shot.

I Love Lucy

Season 1: "Keep jigglin', Peggy! Keep jigglin'!"

Season 2: "It came back?"

Season 3: "It's a Moo-Moo!"

Season 4: "He killed her and tried to hide her body under the couch!"

Season 5: "Cheddar. Err- Chester!"

Season 6: "Shoot if you must this old red head!"

The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour

"Season" 2: "We raise chickens."

The Lucy Show

Season 1: "You don't know 'The Long, Long, Trail'???"

Season 2: "She means the one with Theda Barra."

Season 3: "Stephen Foster"

Season 4: "This is The Widow Carmichael."

Season 5: "Let's preserve a wonderful American tradition!"

Season 6: "Let's have lunch 'cause the salad's on me."

Here's Lucy

Season 1: "I put starch in his shorts." (Not sure if that's the exact quote, but you know what I mean)

Season 2: "That is the WORST Lawrence Welk impression I've ever heard."

Season 3: "Telegraph, telephone, and tell a woman."

Season 4: "We may have come in on different ships, but we're in the same boat now!"

Season 4 (alternate): "I'm glad she wasn't selling doorknobs!"

Season 5: Sorry folks, I'm drawing a blank.

Season 6: "Did anyone else have the beef hash?"

Life With Lucy

Season 1: "I was BORN over 21!"

No need. This is just to share any quotes you may remember from each season. If you want to guess, you're welcome to, but otherwise just share any lines you recall.
