LittleRickyII Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 Has anyone else noticed that certain episodes of Here's Lucy are not airing on Cozi? Rather than simply skip over them, they substitute them with another earlier episode. For example, I think it's the Donny Osmond episode that keeps getting substituted with that episode about the sheep dog puppies and Jack LaLanne ("Bogie Affair"). And a S6 episode (O.J. Simpson?) keeps getting substituted with "Lucy, the American Mother." So "Bogie Affair" and "American Mother" wind up being played twice as often as the rest.

Well, i can certainly understand them omitting that dreadful killer simpson episode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brock Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 The sad part is the O.J. Episode is actually a pretty good one. Too bad it didn't guest star, say, Rosey Grier or someone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a strong, funny show. I try not to let knowledge of future events cloud my enjoyment of it, but I can understand why it wouldn't be wise to rerun. On a similar note, I'm sure it's only a matter of time before the entire Cosby library is wiped off the face of the earth. Mill Creek has been getting a lot of flack for announcing their complete series set. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvsbway Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 I watched the OJ episode the other night while interjecting my own commentary. Example anytime he mentioned his wife. "The one you didn't kill." 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they should let THESE run but rather take off the animal ones, the one with the midget gangsters and the sherriff too? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RodMcK1 Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 OJ I understand, but why would the Donny Osmond episode be intentionally skipped? Does his Mormon faith offend those in power at Cozi? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C L A U D E Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 I agree, cute episode, unfortunate choice of a guest star. Yeah, well, Robert Blake just wasn't available that week. Then they tried Phil Spector i heard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be, Blake was one tough cookie, who ended up being like the hoodlums and tough guys he had portrayed so often. But i did like him in Baretta though. Wish you ha d a pic of him as a kid. He used to make those two little twerps Lucy babysat look like angels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mickie Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 Yes, they have been doing this for a while and they do not change their TV listings schedule, so the listing has the episode that should air but instead its replaced for a show from an earlier season. Not sure why they do this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why they do this. That's what I've noticed. The listings will say Donny Osmond, then that sheep dog thing airs. And it's always these same two substitute episodes being run in place of the same two that never air. Wasn't he cute way back then?

I'm actually surprised this hasn't already happened. It's been almost a year that it's been on and I think they're in the fourth rerun cycle of this series, which seems like overkill. Just being honest here, but I Love Lucy is so jam-packed with wonderful moments it can be rerun on an endless loop and nobody ever gets tired of it. You can almost get away with that with The Lucy Show. But Here's Lucy seems like the kind of show that you can cycle through once, maybe twice, then you need a break from it for a couple years. Most of the time if I'm home when it's on, I'll check to see what episode is being run, but I usually end up changing the channel. I never do that with I Love Lucy. If it's on, I watch. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted July 23, 2015 Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 Cozi "Here's Lucy"----No credits! except for Paul Brownstien the distributor. I thought there was some union rule that said the credits of each person HAD to appear on screen, even if they're sped up and scrunched to the point that they're illegible. Today's HL's: one of the best of the 3rd season (which isn't saying much) "Jack Benny's Biography". It goes right from the opening to puppet Lucy opening up the curtain; then cuts to opening the curtains at the end of the opening "written/directed by" credits without showing them. I don't know if these are the versions that LBP pre-edited for syndication but they end rather abruptly. This one with Jack explaining he and another swinger were going to take out some girls. The doorbell rings and in walks George Burns....THE END. But the joke, as I recall are the two old ladies they're taking out. The other episode run today "Ma Parker", which I dare say, isn't QUITE as horrible as I remember it being. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
