chedderchester Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 What do most Lucy fans think of this episode? I enjoyed the bit where Lucy and Viv try to sleep in the car. And of course Lucy almost going up the freshly painted stairs and Viv doesn't stop her. We're in the middle of redecorating the house right now--painting the furniture (LOL) and getting rid of the old furniture, did you hear what I said? And who spray painted their couch even back in 1963? And who paints their stairs? Today, Mr. Mooney would've just whipped out his iphone and called 911 instead of running into Lucy's house to use the phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vivfantoo* Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 Hi Chester, I only saw it once but remember not liking the couch scene at all. What a mess! Not very believable to me. I do remember some laughs from the car scene; I enjoyed that part, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvsbway Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 Didn't she find the couch idea in a magazine? What kind of magazine would promote this craptastic idea, Better Homes and Garbage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chedderchester Posted June 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 Yeah, in some magazine, can't remember. Lucy + couches = disaster. Remember how she "upholstered" Fred's old chair? Ugh even my mom cringed when she saw that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 A weak (er) entry in the mostly solid 2nd season. Yes, people painted stairs, but never heard of anyone spray painting furniture...in their living room no less. Bobs and Madelyn were usually inspired by something they saw in real life so it's possible this was a redecorating fad in 1963. My favorite part is Mooney's reaction as he's sinking into the couch and his delivery of "What is this? A new game called Sink the Banker?"

Brock Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 A family story which lives in infamy is the time my maternal grandmother had the bright idea to spray paint their otherwise lovely loveseat a shade of ORANGE. Apparently, it cracked every time one sat down on it. Unfortunately I never saw the couch, but my grandmother saved the matching orange mini-ottoman as a reminder never to do it again. It's in our garage somewhere... Not sure if she wore her yellow satin evening gown for the paint job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvsbway Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 The Royalweave thing is on ebay right now, there are about 5 other pics. The decor in the house and the carpet remind me of my grandparents 70's style. She has about 3 other outfits in them. Trying to figure out if the pink dress is the London pink dress.
