Review of The Lucy Show

The Lucy Show (1962–1968)
Fabulous Show!!
5 April 2004
I just caught this version of the various Lucy shows this morning, and had not realized that our UPN cable station was even carrying it, as the cable summary was of the old "I Love Lucy" show.... This was the show that premiered in the Fall of 1962, and I remember watching it so well, when I was in high school!! It is in black and white and UPN showed back to back episodes from 9:00 to 10:00 A.M; and I have to say they were probably two of the best of that incarnation of the show; the first concerned Lucy and Viv (Vivian Vance) putting in a shower, and the second concerned their trying to start a carmel corn business using a recipe of Viv's....both were just hilarious, and as they say there is nothing like the old situation comedies of the 50's and 60's...I hope UPN continues to carry it for awhile...

I do agree with the others that you CANNOT beat the combination of Lucy and Vivian Vance..they are magic together; when Viv is talking on the phone conveying the recipe of the carmel corn to a friend and Lucy is trying to make a batch by herself is fannntastic!!!

I am sorry to hear the DVD versions are not very good as far as transfer of film....hopefully they will redo these for future generations...
