"You're Not Much of a Secretary, But You're Cheap"
3 January 2024
Harry's new time clock prompts Lucy to quit her job and her replacement turns out to be her best pal Viv, who has arrived for a visit.

It's too bad that Vivian's last appearance is another disappointing one. Her guest spots on this show never rose above mediocrity -- unlike her LUCY SHOW appearances, which were much better.

The exaggerated formalness between the ladies when they fight reminds us of how great they were every time this happened on I LOVE LUCY and THE LUCY SHOW.

Lucy and Harry are sniveling about how much they miss each other. They just did that a few episodes ago in "Lucy's Replacement". Repetition is something the writers don't seem to care about anymore.

The final scene is ridiculous with Lucy having "aged" overnight into a decrepit old woman in a wheelchair because of her job loss. It's more appropriate for a sketch comedy than a sitcom.
