Brock Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 I was just perusing Amazon.com and I noticed there is a new listing for a "tell all" book by Arnold Mooney himself, Barry Livingston! http://www.amazon.com/Importance-Being-Ernie-Hollywood-Survivor/dp/0806535091/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1300070263&sr=1-1 He doesn't seem to have had the most eventful life, but maybe he will write about being traumatized by his "Lucy Gets Locked In The Vault" haircut! Maybe he's upset that a portion of his second TLS appearance ended up on the syndicator's cutting room floor. Perhaps he has dirt about Mary Jane from the set of their unsold "The Two of Us" pilot. Bad memories of Bill having he and his brother hurl empty film cans to thwart Vivian Bagley's big scenes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm anxious to read that, he and his brother were there for years, know all about the industry and surely have great stories to tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brock Posted December 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 Looking at the Amazon preview, it seems Barry's book has a chapter entitled "My Pal, Lucille Ball". It might be worth a read. http://www.amazon.com/Importance-Being-Ernie-Hollywood-Survivor/dp/0806535091/ref=sr_1_10?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1323061000&sr=1-10 His foreword though seems a bit mean spirited to me.

Brock Posted December 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 Just looked but could not find the foreword, where'd you see that? Where you see the book cover click "Look Inside" above it and the foreward should pop up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor Posted December 5, 2011 Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 Wonder what his chapter on Lucy is like. I don't really want to buy the book, just the part about Lucy. I don't care about anybody else. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brock Posted February 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 Barry discusses Bill, Viv and the film can prank in this video: "Second incarnation of I Love Lucy". "William Fray-ley". Where did they get this interviewer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 Alright. Is this story going to be another oft-told anecdote like Carol Burnett's "Once Upon a Mattress" story? I wish we could hear some newer stuff once in awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeySanJoaquin Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 Yeah, no kidding! How in the world can there be much "new stuff" when everything happened 50 years ago and most of the people involved are long gone?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol Exactly, we hear NEW stories all the time, it's just that Carol and this guy stick with the same ones over and over and when did this guy turn 73 anyway, he looks so O L D !
