Mmadluv7 Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 My guess is it will be out in January 2012. I say this because I saw the new additions to the MPI schedule and, while The Donna Reed Show: Season 4 was listed, Here's Lucy was not. So unless they decided to release it alongside TLS in December, I think we're looking at January. Hopefully, Season 6 won't be far behind so we can complete this before Summer 2012. And, by the way, whatever happened to "Lucy Moves to NBC"? I had thought it was complete and ready for release but no word on that one either. It's funny, I was just thinking about that and even did a cute little piece on it. I actually did a few concept pieces on what a TV Guide cover might look when she made the move From CBS to NBC- it's on the lucy art blog. here's one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mmadluv7 Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 I think the cover is nice, I saw it months ago- but I think other pics could be considered, pics that are retouched and vibrant and colorful Here's some iderrs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect this is pretty much the final cover and IMHO I think we'll have two nice "presents" in time for Christmas! I think MPI does an INCREDIBLE job on the entire production of the sets, but I think the cover should be restored. Glamorize the Lucy image of the 70's. Make the look vibrant and have the colors pop as the other seasons' cover (with the exception of the first seasons- great picture, bad color IMO) it's 2011-2012 -Color restoration is a Lucy picture's best friend now days.

Neil Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 SO cool! But not the first typo!! (Check out "personnel" spelled with THREE n's!!! ) Lucy: Harry, do you spell "personnel" with one "n" or two "n's"? Harry: How have you been spelling it? Lucy: With three "n's". Harry: THREE n's?? Lucy: Yeah, that way they'll think it's a typo. Isn't that roughly how the exchange goes about the number of 'r's' in Harrison? Season 5 has the strongest opening block of episodes of any season* ("Big Break") followed by two solid episodes, the enjoyable "Eva Gabor/Roomies"** and the hilarious "Harry, Male Nurse". *Arguably "Burtons" is stronger premiere, but I personally prefer "Break" **"Eva" has one of those telegraphing-what's-going-to-happen framed shots that drive me crazy--which I attribute to LAZY direction. When Lucy is going to throw the necklace to Eva, they cut to an awkward shot that includes the window so you know exactly what's going to happen. Couldn't they have cut to that shot when the necklace was in mid-air? But there is much to recommend this episode: Lucy is so cute when she's on the phone with Harry hinting who her roommate is---a Lucy characteristic missing from most of Here's Lucy, especially the later episodes.

A friend of mine is president of the Marymount Mother of the Month Membership Meeting and she borrowed a couple of Ms. Harry: She borrowed some Ms?

Yeah, looked like the writers finally HAD to get working as Lucy lost her slapstick abilities when she broke her leg, they actually did some better writing for a change to compensate. And i agree about the lousy direction in the otherwise flawless Eva Gabor ep, just terrific but certainly not a Burton match though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark bale Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 One of the best UK DVD typos was for the 1952 comedy film MISS ROBIN HOOD, which starred that wonderful actress Margaret RUTHERFIELD.

And i agree about the lousy direction in the otherwise flawless Eva Gabor ep, just terrific but certainly not a Burton match though. Well, you can't entirely blame direction here: it was probably referenced in the script to help set up the "joke", and utltimately it was up to the film editor to decide from which 3 different camera angles which shot in fact to choose to use. Plus, Bob & Marion were back full-time at this point which is one reason I think the 5th season is as good as it is -- they had an inspired season premiere script due to the unfortunate incident suffered by their leading lady.
