@patricial8255 Год назад

Gee I didn't see it that way. I always thought it was placed on the set to show they entertained from time to time and this made a perfect prop for the bum. I never took Lucy for a drunk. The commercial got her drunk but she was unaware it was alcohol. Enjoyed the video Rick.

@dianetheisen8664 Год назад

I totally agree 👍

@TheDriftwoodlover Год назад

I think similarly- that the bottles are placed as a prop for the tramp.

@gvalan Год назад

Rick, you are amazing! Your eagle eyes catch things no one else does! Your perception gives watching I Love Lucy a whole extra dimension. Thank you for this and all your great posts!

@ianmalcolm2552 Год назад

I agree with the scenario that the bottles were placed there for the bum to consume as he did. Insinuating that Lucy deliberately drank would be out of bounds for the show. Unlike Vitametavegamin where it was unintentional inebriation.

@Cadmandu2000 Год назад

I agree. It was common in that time (at least on screen) for people to have a liquor cabinet at home. If the set dressers neglected to put a liquor cabinet on set, this script which called for the "bum" to drink their liquor would not have worked if there wasn't any. Those bottles were stored on the counter as Chekhov's Gun. (Or Chekhov's Gin if you wish.) You never see them again because no other script called for alcohol to be consumed in their apartment again. Of course, that's just my guess. I could be wrong.

@ianmalcolm2552 Год назад

Precisely, it’s the only logical explanation.

@williampetersen9915 Год назад

Speaking of alcohol on the set; when I was a kid, I was watching an episode of The Brady Bunch titled Is There A Doctor In The House. You actually see Mike walk over to a liquor cart and fix himself a drink. This was the only time this cart was shown.

@michaeltaylor1603 Год назад

Gotta watch that one. That # of people in the house might make me take a nip now & again.

@sallyn2393 Год назад

Interesting summation Rick. I never thought that, I thought they were there for entertaining, like a bar. I also didn’t think Lucy had been drinking in the episode. I don’t think the bottles were ever seen there again. I always enjoy hearing your take on things.😊

Love your wonderful catches, Rick. There's so much fascinating trivia around the show. I read somewhere that the stuff Lucy was drinking out of the bottle of Vitameatavegamin was actually liquid apple pectin which someone with the prop department found at a local health food store. Bob Carroll and Madelyn Pugh were such brilliant comedy writers.

Rick, this is the stuff I like to see on this broadcast and this is the only place where you can find it! You are astounding, even beating my trivia knowledge (humbly, lol). I was expecting it to be about the bottles because I did notice them, but at the end there you gave us every round from your six-shooter, to use the lingo of westerns of the day. Just epic! Thanks again and keep the quality coming please. I remain positive and hopeful.

@theastewart6721 Год назад

I personally think they were set there on purpose for the bum to see and drink out of. I don’t think they were trying to give us the impression that Lucy was drinking. That’s just my take. Interesting perspective. Thanks for sharing your thoughts Rick! I like when they had champagne in the closet hiding from the guests on their anniversary.😊

I noticed when Lucy was on the quiz show and getting sprayed with water, her face looked different. I couldn't figure out why, but realized it's because her false eyelashes were missing. It gave her face a different look. I'm thinking the booze bottles were placed there just as props for the bum to easily access, and no other reason.

@gregoryricks1322 Год назад

She looked different because Max Factor pancake makeup (which she wore religiously on this show) is water soluble, and the spray blew both her eyelashes and her makeup right off her face.

@whoisharo4689 Год назад

Amazing find, 9G! But I think the bottles were there for the tramp scene. But maybe as a nondescript reason, yes, Lucy had them out cause "she was stressed". Kind of how certain episodes have a table by the kitchen but other episodes have that wooden piano where the table would be (like the episode when the mertzes go home and start thumping on the ceiling so they stop playing)

Also, William Frawley's agent was a certified genius. He had it written into Bill's contract that he could miss filming any episode that conflicted with the World Series, but his claim to fame was the fact that, when he found out I Love Lucy was to be replayed (re-run) off season, he also made sure Mr. Frawley was compensated whenever an episode aired.... Enter the advent of the residual check... all, thanks to Bill Frawley's agent and Desi's brilliant idea to film (instead of tape) the episodes so they could be replayed ...

No doubt episodes were made before they were shown. So this one was in November and may have been taped in October. Frawley had it in his contract that he was allowed to go in October to the World Series and therefore miss certain episodes. That may be the reason we don't see him in this one.

@valentinr.dominguez2892 Год назад

A partly empty bottle doesn't necessarily imply that it had been used at that particular moment. It just reflects that it had been consumed over the course of time which is realistic. There would have been a drinking glass somewhere on the set if they wanted to suggest that Lucy Ricardo had been drinking.

@stephenr3910 Год назад

Phil Ober shows up on Perry Mason reruns a lot. He also played a general on the pilot of "I Dream of Jeannie" but I don't think it was a recurring role.

@bejoyful Год назад

Wonderful review of the episode; I thought the bottles were to entice the 'tramp' character; I never knew Mr. Emery was married to the great Bankhead; agree when Fred is away something is lacking; nice to know about Viv's husband and relationship of other actors; found Frank Nelson never seemed to age from season 1 to the last season when he becomes Ralph Ramsey.

@DMfilmfan Год назад

Wow, I thought I knew a lot about Tallulah but I was unaware of her ever being married! 2:31 Ethel's looking glam, even though the outfit seems tight around the waist, lol . Yes, the messed-up mentality of that period: alcohol = bad, cigarettes/cigars/pipes = good. One vintage soap opera featured a doctor smoking a pipe in his hospital office every time he gave one of his patronizing speeches to whoever he felt needed a scolding.

@Larry2463 Год назад

Perhaps Lucy simply had the liquor bottles displayed on the shelf with the intention of later storing them in the appropriate cabinet. However, in the midst of doing so, she might have gotten distracted by the need to attend to the bills before Ricky arrived home or something similar. Given the previously mentioned state of disarray, this backstory seems to fit the situation perfectly-at least in my opinion.. As I recall of the episode lucy mistook The bum for being the man who was supposed to portray her first husband. Therefore, I don't think she would have left liquor bottles out for someone who she wasn't actually expecting to consume. Additionally, there was likely nothing terribly shocking about seeing liquor bottles openly displayed on a sitcom set throughout the 1950's, 1960's, and possibly even the 1970's. I am aware of a highly popular sitcom, Bewitched, in which the actors frequently consumed real liquor on screen. Furthermore, on Bewitched, costumes were only provided for the two main performers, Elizabeth Montgomery and Dick York/Dick Sargent. All supporting cast members and guest stars were required to provide their own clothing and jewelry, etc., except when witches attire was necessary, which was provided, of course. Therefore, for instance, when you saw Endora (Agnes Moorehead) dressed in "civilian" clothing (Furs, dresses, shoes, jewelry.) They were all articles of Ms. Moorhead's personal wardrobe from her home.

FYI - the Kitchen Set - Was Actually a WORKING Kitchen - water pipes were ran for the Sink, the Refrigerator actually was running, the Stove top was hooked up to a Gas line.

@catreader9733 Год назад

I am impressed. I was the stage manager at a little amateur theatre for the play Come Back, Little Sheba. The director decided to have a functional kitchen. The gas range (which took a disproportionate area of the kitchen on our little stage which was too small to have a backstage area or wings) was hooked up to a 15 lb. propane bottle, the water was delivered from a pressurized tank that a volunteer cobbled together, the sink drained to a hidden tub, and the refrigerator was the theatre's own refrigerator, moved from the box office onto the set. Some of my unique duties for this play were pressurizing the water tank with a bicycle pump, turning on and off the gas bottle before and after performance, and emptying the catch tub. Because bacon or ham was actually fried on set near the end of the play, my perquisite was a hot meat sandwich after the performance. Incidentally, the theatre had no running water. My post through most of the performance was hidden within the set, so that I could turn off the gas bottle if needed for safety.

@davidmercuriorivera6780 Год назад

Thanks for the detective work, Rick. Agree with all those who've said the bottles were there just to advance the plot, so the bum would steal them later in the episode. Certainly having wine bottles in the apartment for guests/social drinking doesn't mean Lucy was getting drunk! The evidence this was simply related to the plot? We never see those wines bottles ever again in the hundred-plus episodes of I Love Lucy to follow.

How can Lucy be in arrears in bill payments? Ricky was a band leader for heaven's sake, they lived in a rinky-dink, single bedroom apartment in Manhattan in the 50s when rents, even in the affluent neighborhoods, were far more affordable than today. The Ricardo's were far from spendthrifts if the episodes were any indication. Turning to another topic, is it possible the bottles were there for another reason? We know John Emery's wife, Tallulah Bankhead, had a reputation of being one of the biggest souse in all of Hollywood.

There´s absolutely no indication that Lucy was drinking while doing her books or before Ricky got home to check her accounts. Most people in the 50´s had alcohol in their living rooms to offer guests and there´s zero reason to think they wanted us to think she was drinking.

Also, I never saw Lucy (Ricardo), with a drink in her hand 🖐. Fast forward to the '6️⃣0️⃣s and "Bewitched", (a favorite of mine), you will see the characters drinking all the time. But what I wanted to point out is that the drinks 🍻🍷were real, except when child actors were on stage.

@mewregaurdhissyfit7733 Год назад

Ricky was a Night Club entertainer, and as such, he drank. Maybe not a lot, but he drank. Lucy I'm sure had a "tipple" now and then. I'm sure the bottles were specifically out for the man playing the drunk bum, but it they aren't out of place for this time period and for Rickys job. As far as the other character actors, Lucy was known for wanting as many friends, family, and people she personally liked to be on her shows. This is why you see a lot of the same people over and over and over again.

@suzvalentino1901 Год назад

WOW really people were drinking from those bottles that is so amazing. So what, and to think Lucy was drinking because they were in back of her, then you don't know Lucy Ricardo.

Was more of a accident her getting drunk in commercial. Yep! Never saw the bottles after that. You would never see them drink except anniversary. Verna Felton passed away 1 day before Walt Disney.

Those bottles were there for the scene with the tramp. Lucy was upset about the bills, but not drunk. When she got inebriated because of the alcohol in the Vitameatavegemin, she did not know it contained alcohol. You're so far off, reaching for things that aren't there.

@wpeters4361 Год назад

...or these bottles and glasses lined up on the counter are the equivalent of today's bar cart. Wouldn't be so surprising that when Ricky came home at night he and Lucy may have had a cocktail. I'm not reading into it that a half bottle here means that Lucy was drinking during the day.

I think they were obviously there because the script needed them there for later when the bum came into the apartment.

@LyleFrancisDelp Год назад

Lucille Ball was an old school conservative and was probably very careful about what was portrayed on her show. But given this, even she was adamant about portraying her pregnancy and the subsequent birth of Little Ricky on the show as a normal and natural part of life and marriage. Bravo. Even in "Here's Lucy", she never had anything on her show that was blatantly racy, unlike other shows of that era. Also, it was the norm back then to always have married couples in separate twin beds, BUT in one episode...the one where Lucy and Ricky are handcuffed together....they are in one bed....necessary for the comic effect. IYKYK.

@jons.6216 Год назад

Well, they didn't really have a bar, so the bum had to grab the bottles from somewhere! Haha! Just like their dining table that was folded up behind the sofa! Verna Felton was also the voice of Mrs Slaghoople, Wilma's mother on The Flintstones the first couple of seasons! Lastly, could Bill Frawley's absence be due to the claus in his contract about being allowed time off to see the World Series, Rick?
