MONALISAISMONALUCY Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 Oh yeah, i have that one. Any ep that made you care about the characters HAD to be better than the usual ones. You definitely do because I wouldn't have it without you. This episode is on Youtube but in poor visual condition. I like it when Lucy's character and Gale's character have a sentimental moment on screen. This reminds me a bit of the episode "With Viv Who Needs An Enemy?" when Harry tells Lucy that Viv his new secretary is driving him up the wall with her efficency and doing alot of overtime. Harry tells Lucy you may be a lousy secretary but you're cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See those are CLASSICS, obvious favorites that are the best of the series. But with all of us its our personal favorite. The sentimental value of it to us. Whether you like it because of the jokes, the slapstick, the romance, musical number, guest star, etc. It's based on all of us individually and what we personally like. This post is perfect for Miki! Hahaha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

upperco Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 Yes you can, if you have ten different ones, list them in no order. Okay, let's see... "The Girls Want To Go To A Nightclub" "Ricky And Fred Are TV Fans" "Never Do Business With Friends" "Lucy Is Envious" "Ethel's Hometown" "Lucy Gets In Pictures" "The Star Upstairs" "Lucy Gets A Paris Gown" "Return Home From Europe" "Off To Florida" "Lucy Wants To Move To The Country" "Lucy Raises Tulips" As I look at the list now, I can tell you that my favorite is probably either "Ricky And Fred Are TV Fans", "The Star Upstairs", or "Off To Florida."

C L A U D E Posted February 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 I always thought the Hollywood eps were the best, BUT, after watching all of them repeatedly recently, i have to say, it was HIT and MISS for all of them, some are gems like Holden and Cornel Wilde and Hollywood anniversary BUT some others are turkeys like Richard Widmark, Bullfight Dance and Dore Schary.

Bullfight Dance might be the worst of the bunch. Good laughs during musical number but I don't know, never really was fond of it. I just realized I forgot another one of my favorites. The Freezer! I cannot pick one single ILL episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me of course, it's THE FUR COAT, the very first ep from season one that defines Lucy Ricardo, the series, their marriage, and that this show is on it's way to be the best Television show ever produced.

Brock Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Bullfight Dance might be the worst of the bunch. Good laughs during musical number but I don't know, never really was fond of it. Bullfight Dance is such a curiosity. It is hilarious on paper, but it doesn't quite work out in the end. It has some great laughs -- particularly the whole scene of Lucy writing "What It's Like To Be Married To Ricky Ricardo" ("by me!") and her "few descriptive passages", Lucy's rendition of "Let Me Go, Lover!", the Swanee River/Humoresque duet, "No castinettes?!", "Senorita with lumbago", "For once the bull will be full of Lucy!"... but there's just something missing. How different Lucy history would have been if the bullfight number remained the finale of Lucy Is Envious as originally planned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucy getting her way into the show, a main plot of Lucy that works great every time. But like you said something is missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
