Lucy Plots in Other Shows and Vice Versa


Recommended Posts

I'm not being fair I guess because I don't ever remember seeing an episode of "Courtship". Or "Nanny" for that matter. Maybe I'm just remembering the promos. "Nanny" had some sort of magical powers, I think and her name was "Phoebe Figgalilly" as the theme song said "It's a silly name".

All i know is i wasn't BIG on Nanny, Courtship of Eddie's father however had cute Bill Bixby, he and Ted Bessell on That Girl and Robert Conrad on Wild Wild West were my hearthrobs back then, and Courtship had the extra of showing this great relationship between a father and son which i never had and craved at the time.

Brock's comment about poor ignored Chris going to college got me to thinking.....There's series spin-off potential there!

 

“I Love Candy” with theme song by Aaron Carter

 

Premiere episode title is a choice among these 4:

“Chris Waits Up for Lucy”

“You-Know-Who Cuts Chris’s Apron Strings”

“What State is My Wandering Mother In Tonight?” or

“Bunson Burners”

 

Chris returns home from her first semester of college to find that Viv has taken advantage of the loophole in her lease and now owns the house with Vern Bunson. Viv gives Chris the bus ticket Mr. Mooney sent her (in case Lucy ever breaks her leg) and she retraces her mother’s route to California (going through New York City 3 times).

As she arrives at the Glenhall apartments, she and her mother pass each other without recognition, Lucy having forgotten what Chris looks like and Chris pegging Lucy for an over-aged hippy dressed in her Tearducts outfit enroute to the “Wingding” taping. Chip off the old block Chris decides to borrow a trampoline from the prop department at 780 North Gower Street next door to gain entry to Lucy’s 2nd floor apartment patio and wait until she gets home to confront Lucy directly with her abandonment issues.

Mrs. Goldapper: Florence Halop

OMG you are a friggin R I O T ! Why the hell were you running around in your play pen when you could have been writing her shows? LOL! Where did they get the name of the apartment building? Glen Hall was a famous hockey player here, i think he played for Chicago.

This is a bit off topic but made myself laugh today. I was doing the washing up and my mind was wondering as it frequently does and thought. Hmm if Lucy was around today and making I love Lucy it would be a much differnt show the songs would probably rap songs. Then went on to think Hmm if Lucy was Lucy and Eminem was Ricky.... In tonights episode Lucy causes trouble for Ricky when she sets out to prove SHE is the real Slim Shady!.

 

Doesnt seem as funny in writing but had me chuckling earlier ;)

"I Love Candy" episode 2

“Chris Helps Charles Manson”

Mrs. Goldapper calls the cops and Chris is thrown to the streets. With no where to go, she ends up on the Sunset Strip and runs into Danfield chum Herbie Walton who takes her to the Spahn Ranch where Chris immediately feels part of a family again. When Manson takes Chris and the girls for a ride in Bel Air, he stops to buy a movie-star map from a very familiar street vendor and Chris soon discovers, to her horror, that this is to be no routine tour of celebrity homes. Squeeky Frome: Iris Adrian.

Then there was the unproduced SPECIAL with Suzanne LaRusch where Lucy McGillicuddy, Ricardo, Carmichael, Carter, Barker, Arnaz, morton asked Mr MooneyCarter for money so she could go to Afghanistan to find and kill Bin Laden. She wore the man out doing so many bad things to him that at the end of the special he just turned the gun on himself and decided to leave this world rather than face THAT WOMAN who was driving him insane. :lucythrill::lucy2::lucythrill::hlLOL:

:lucythrill: Just caught this one....which inspires the following Here's Lucy.

 

"Lucy Carter Meets Lucy Carmichael"

When Mr. Mooney threatens to fire her again, Lucy Carmichael seeks a new job at the Unique Employment Agency and comes face to face with her mirror-image. (Mrs. Carmichael has her Dean Martin episode wig on so they don't look EXACTLY alike). After commiserating about their similarly disagreeable bosses, the girls decide to do a little "Job Switching" when Lucy Carter gets a call for an open position at the Westland Bank. Meanwhile, Harry meets Theodore Mooney in a group therapy session at Dr. Cunningham's and when those two men argue about who has it worse, the doctor suggests they switch lives to settle the argument.

The above episode was so popular it's turned into the new series "Here's The Lucy Show"

Episode #2: "Lucy and Lucy Get Lucky" or "My Heart Belongs to Dino"

When Lucy and Lucy hear that Dean Martin is playing Vegas, Lucy Carmichael remembers her date with Dean and figures that she can use that influence to get the gals into the sold out show. On their way to the reservations desk they meet another redhead leaving in a huff and are surprised at the clerks hysterical reaction to their 'reservation for 8' idea. With Dean's show no longer an option, the Lucys settle on the only available ticket: a lounge act featuring Rusty Martin fresh out of prison trying to jump-start her career.

This is absolutely mind blowing. To get all "four" of them in the scene, we need a group "encounter", complete with two frollicking sets of Sid & Vandas.

Lucy and Harry agree to meet her at the Glen Hall apartments to go over terms. When Harry and Mary Jane ask for some privacy, Lucy starts to snoop around, when she discovers a malnourished and now wheelchair bound Joan Brenner being held captive on Mary Jane's confining patio.

But when poor Eddie has to work late, Dean steps in for him AGAIN. And just as Lucy Carmichael is about to leave the studio, a horse rides off with Dean’s leading lady and since she’s spent all day on one, gets called back to the set to pinch hit, but only after she persuades Miss Ball to keep her date with Eddie!

Ricky & The Unemployment Follies:

 

Picture it. New York City. Upper. 1974. With Ricky's career still going from stregth to strength and with Little Ricky heading off to College, the Ricardos and the Widow Mertz decide to downsize and move from Westport back to New York City. With the extra money Ricky has from selling the country house, he decides to open up a Club Babablu on the West Coast and they travel out to California to set the place up. Once everything is ready to go, Lucy has the idea that for a big, splashy opening they need a good comedy act too, and she sets her sights on Jack Benny. With a letter of introduction from Danny Williams -- as Jack Benny was one of the FEW people Ricky did NOT eat lunch with at Metro in 1954 and 1955 -- they go Jack's new condo to talk him into appearing. After struggling with the lock for a few moments, Mary Livingstone finally releases Jack from the maid's quarters off the kitchen and Jack is stunned that this redhead is married to Ricky Ricardo... and even more stunned that she is fawning over him as though she has never met him before. Jack then goes into a tirade (complete with clips) of how Jack has hosted Lucy, her brother-in-law (Harry Carter didn't seem Cuban!), and apparently two random children (who did bear a resemblance to Ricky Ricardo, truth be told), at his Palm Springs estate, hired Lucy to pen his memoirs, appeared with her in the breadline, sued her on at least one occasion, fixed her sink (continuity be damned!), and even entrusted his fortune to Lucy and her state-of-the-art, Irving-equipped bank vault! Highly insulted that Lucy would try to pretend she'd never met him before, he throws the Ricardos out of his condo and told Ricky he would never work in this Town again.

Episode #2 Rewrite of 2nd half

"Lucy and Lucy Get Lucky" or "My Heart Belongs to Dino"

When Lucy and Lucy hear that Dean Martin is playing Vegas, Lucy Carmichael remembers her date with Dean and figures that she can use that influence to get the gals into the sold out show. On their way to the reservations desk they meet another redhead leaving in a huff and are surprised at the clerk’s hysterical reaction to their 'reservation for 8' idea.

The Lucys find out that Dean’s opening act is his cousin (parolee Rusty Martin)and after they see the poster, they both get the ‘lightbulb’ look simultaneously. The only questions: how to get rid of Rusty? (they decide on “the usual”: tying and gagging her up in the broom closet); and which Lucy gets to go onstage in her place? They have singing auditions but when Lucy Carter brings Carole Cook to do her vocals backstage, it’s a draw, so they decide to do a sister act. But when they enter from opposite sides of the stage wearing the same gown, it’s a free-for-all as the girls start tearing off more than “a game of golf” until Dean and Eddie Feldman pull them apart.

I'm pretty familiar with the MTM episodes but not their titles. I'm going to review an episode guide, so I can fully appreciate what I'm sure is BRILLIANCE...

 

Some of mine need an LOL-track...

Actually, as funny as yours and Brock's are, it would be so much easier for you two to take the easy way out, every episode of Laverne and Shirley, Absolutely Fabulous and even Kate and Allie are perfectly tailored for any Lucy and Viv involvement, LOL! ALSO, i wish you'd insert Lucy Carmichael in LOST, as she was LOST most of her life anyway and she would have been great as Mama Soprano, no make up needed if done in her later years. OR, Lucy as the bartender on any Cheers episode, of course she gets drunk as she samples the drinks she makes to see if she got them right.

 

 

....and of course The Mothers-in-Law!
