Luvsbway Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 Just heard of this opening on June 13th in Granville, TN. I wonder who is contributing to this on the Lucy side. https://www.granvilletn.com/mayberry-i-love-lucy-museum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freddie2 Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 Very cool! ILL and TAGS aren't two shows that I'd immediately put together, if not just because they were from different eras. It's odd that the museum is in Tennessee and not North Carolina, where Griffith hailed from and was the inspiration for Mayberry. Is there some connection between the two that might warrant this joint effort, beyond the CBS ownership and TAGS's being filmed at Desilu? The line "step into the Ricardo's living room" makes me wonder if there'll be another set recreation like in Jamestown, but the building doesn't look big enough for that. The photo of the exterior looks like they just snagged the cover of Michael McClay's I Love Lucy book. And by the way, for fellow classic TV fans, the Red Skelton museum in Indiana has reopened as well. I was worried that it might not with all of the museums that have closed permanently over the past few months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvsbway Posted June 7, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 I convinced a friend who lives in TN to take a little road trip and check out the opening. I'll report back with what I learn. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
