This is our preshow musical, and while it is NOT completely accurate time wise, there are some lovely songs on it.DVD - Like DR DtM, The Lucy Show - with the original openings and commercials on many shows. If the show did not reach I LOVE LUCY status - it was close. I really hate the men they paired Lucy and Viv with, really no sparks there. And the constant bickering with Mr Barnsdahl (Charles Lane) and later Mr Mooney (Gale Gordon in later seasons) was just repetitive and annoying. I like Gale Gordon MUCH better as Mr. Conklin.BUT three of the episodes for me are classic Lucy/Viv physical comedy.....Lucy & Viv Put Uo a TV Antenna, Lucy & Viv Install a Shower. and Lucy & Viv Are Volunteer Firemen. I don't think anyone today - not even Debra Messing - could do the same things with the same resultant hilarity.Ain't that right!So far, the only adult male presense on the show I like is Dick Martin. Charles Lane is Charles Lane but I prefer Gale Gordon's Mr. Mooney (have to wait till season 2 for him, I think.)Also, I've noticed how bright and cheery and breezy Vivian Vance was in the first couple of episodes but then she seemed to have gone through a tough spell where she looked tired and drawn for a time. Maybe she was starting to realize the show was a hit and that she was going to be tied to it (and the work) for the next couple of years.

Thanks, DR GINNY. Most appreciated!DR ELMORE sent me two LOVELY cd's. I am awash in music!!
Are you performing the show with or without an intermission, and if so, where have you inserted it?
I just walked to the corner market and back with no crutches, but I think I should have taken one of them. I learned yesterday that taking both was not a smart move
