"Mames Maimed!"  where it is revealed that the skier who broadsided Lucy up at Snow Mass was Angela Lansbury, who later claimed she only intended to wish Lucy good luck in the show business "break a leg" tradition.  

OMG, this could've been one of Lucy's specials where she played herself, detailing the Mame feud.

In the vein of that surreal unproduced "Lucy Goes to Broadway" special, they could have done "Lucy Makes a Musical" with "good sport" guest stars Roz Russell, Angela, Ann Miller, Ann Sothern, Carole Cook and Ginger Rogers all angling for the part.  Aghast when Lucy is cast, they conspire to "help" her.

OMG these are hysterical. I especially love the disease really being Gobloots and Gary being stingy with the masks. And the "uh-oh" reaction to Trump, somebody should actually splice those in to his press conferences (Yoo-hoo, Neil!) :D

These are TOOOO hilarious.  Hard to pick favorite, but Gary's 3/4 size masks made me do a Mrs. McGillicuddy laugh.

I'd forgotten about the whole Patty Andrews tsetse fly story.  Pretty wacko even by Here's Lucy standards.

  • Fabray intends to use new Desilu vehicle to write off her cosmetic surgeries as a business expense: No Nose Nanette will premiere this fall

Just thought of that one last night after watching an interview with Ms. Fabray.

Holy cow, she really DIDN'T have much of a nose! I'd never really noticed before.

LOL, as always.

I thought there should be a Chris "Home Alone' episode where she returns from a sleepover at Cynthia's  and the house is vacant.  Lucy: "You know how it is when you're planning a big trip.  Some little detail is liable to slip your mind." 

The move to California, and the great episodes that could have happened, will forever fester in my craw.  They dispense with the absurdity that Mooney and Lucy would both move without the other one knowing pretty quickly.  but STILL...
