    Flyerplesys Perfectly adorable
    SunnyHello Nice effects though.
    ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.
    Celia A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
    gman7415 I have fond memories of watching that one famous episode where Lucy and Viv get stuck in the shower. Now, I don't know about any of you, but my mom was making dinner in the kitchen the first time I was watching that episode, and she thought I'd gotten hurt and was crying, when in reality, I was laughing my butt off! I know some people will have problems on the last three seasons, in color, and without Viv, but I know for a fact she guest starred later on. Vivian Vance was extremely underrated an should have been given more credit. She also spoke what I believe to be one of the first swear words Ever aired on television. Lucy: You have to admit, I've done some crazy things in life, but at least they were sensible! Viv: Sensible? Honey, sensible my ass! This must not have been scripted, because Lucy turned to the audience, half shocked, half laughing her sensible butt off. Overall, an underrated installment to the Lucille Ball saga.
    edwagreen While the show was very good, I can't give it a **** rating because it didn't reach the comedic limits of the original "I Love Lucy" show of the 1950s.With her marriage to Desi Arnaz over, Lucy had to move on with her life, but continue her successful television career. Reuniting with Vivian Vance and joining with Gale Gordon, the trio created a funny hit. Widowed Lucy and divorced Vivian move together, while Lucy works for Gordon in a bank. Gordon is as overbearing as ever, but he often was a great foil for Ball. The show succeeded because Lucy was still able to cook up her schemes with Vance. While it was true that Desi Arnaz and Bill Frawley were missing, the show was a commercial success. It provided us with a never ending fix for our love for Lucy.
    mhlebik I agree that the B & W eps were the funniest--LOoved the one where they put up an antenna on the roof and even the colored ones with viv in them--she was a perfect foil and sidekick as was gale gordon. When Viv left and the series shifted to California, it was always Lucy meets a celebrity and that got repetitious even on here's lucy. I do not think I can ever forget the shower episode, the one where lucy locks herself and mooney in the bank vault (mooney is a meeney), chasing the bird on the roof. it seems that when viv left, the show simply fell by the wayside. A few of the California eps were good--the one where lucy is in Te dolphin tank was excellent and the ones where viv visited were good, but overall, it lacked a lot of luster
    crgreen0617 Now that all of the I Love Lucy DVDs are out,I hope that paramount home video releases the Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour and The Lucy Show. I haven't seen this show in about ten years and I would love for some season sets of The Lucy Show to be released. From what I've read the 30 or so random episodes that are on DVD are not of the best quality and frankly I'm a little scared to buy them because of the bad reviews I've read. If your a fan of I Love Lucy you should give this show a chance. I think that it's just as funny as I Love Lucy especially the first three seasons with Vivian Vance in the role of Vivian Bagley. My favorite episodes include the one were Lucy and Viv install a shower (a must see),the episode were Lucy puts up a TV antennae,the episode were Lucy and Viv fight over the lease,the episode were Lucy and Viv go to the bank over and over again looking for rare pennies,and so many more. I hope that this review was helpful to you. I wish that some of the satellite/cable networks would rerun this show so that you could enjoy it as much as I did. Love, Cat
