Neil Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 I just hope you didn't let them move us to Thursday, the night that CBS would send its Monday sitcoms to die. Examples: December Bride, Ann Sothern, and flashing forward 25 years: Designing Women. If you take the divorce and Desi buying RKO out of the picture, I wonder just how long I Love Lucy would have run in the half-hour version on its own.

Neil Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 8.6 "Lucy and Ethel Install a Septic Tank" With the additional "output" from the guest house, Westport city officials force the Ricardos to install an additional septic tank. Ricky gives Lucy the check to give the workers, but Lucy figures she can talk them down and pocket the balance by threatening the return of 'socialized sewage'. Her plan backfires and the crew walks off the job in a huff leaving her and Ethel to finish it before Ricky gets home. The girls read the blueprints wrong and direct the overflow pipe in the direction of the Ramseys. Then Ethel puts the lid on backwards trapping them inside. Ethel knows the time is coming for Fred's beer and salami sandwich lunch to make its exit. (Ethel: "I set our clocks by it!"), so the girls scurry to escape through the pipe and pop up in Betty's flower garden just as the flower show judges are scrutinizing Betty's prize-winning crop of chrysanthemums.

Brock Posted March 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 8.7 -- Lucy Meets Grandma Hanson Wanting to become more involved in their community, Lucy and Ethel decide to volunteer at the Westport retirement home. After feeling sorry for one poor, lonely old soul (Ruth McDevitt as Grandma Hanson.

When Betty invites an art critic friends of theirs over to Lucy's to be a guest speaker at the bi-weekly meeting of their women's club, he is immediately taken with the work and vows to make Grandma Hanson a star -- all the while battling with the girls to make sure she is fairly represented, and with the boys who want to snap up every available piece of art before the critic gets to it.

Neil Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 8.28 "Lucy Conducts a Mass" Between the shop on the boulevard that sells deity masks and her Mother Carroll trunk, Lucy's ready when the Pope includes Westport in his American tour. Because sure enough,devout Catholic Carolyn Appleby reminds Lucy of her offer to arrange for an audience and have him do a papal-cure of her situational myopia. Seems Lucy claimed to Carolyn she got 'very chummy' with the pope when the Ricardos visited the Valitcan during their Europe trip and further claimed the Pope promised he would look them up should he ever get to Connecticut. But first: how to dispose of their local priest. Pope John XX111: Himself. Father Bundy: Jay Novello. Giddy Nuns: Jesslyn Fax, Madge Blake, Mary Wickes, Judith Lowry, Merie Earle. Pope's Assistant, Father "Spike": William Lanteau. Inspired by this Oct. 5, 1965 New York Times article I just found: "Crowds Jam Streets for Glimpse of Pope". And I'm not making this up. The last paragraph goes like this: "John Nardoza, 11, was one of 12 children chosen to receive communion from the Pope at the papal Mass at Madison Square Garden Monday. Said John, "I'm excited but I usually spend Monday night watching "The Lucy Show"". Having to choose between a visit with the Pope and an episode of The Lucy Show would make any boy switch religions and become a MOONIE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
