I was born in '57 I didn't catch the original broadcast I watched the show in syndication for many years. They were a lovely couple, soul mates. One could see the love. It's sad to know what happened to them behind the scenes. His drinking & womanizing. He was a very handsome man. She was beatiful. Very funny together & the show was well written. I never thought about the fact that she changed her voice for the show making it higher than her real voice to make her character seem less intelligent & ditsy She suffered a miscarriage early on in their marriage before Lucy was born. They were television pioneers what they did as a couple was genius. Thank you for posting.
I have always loved Lucy and still do I would put my dolls down and sit in front of the tv and watch Lucy even though it was in black and white I fell in love with rickey.😃
Grew up watching reruns of I LOVE LUCY , i think them being so in love really showed , sad that the last season even tho good you can see they were differNT , but we will always and forever LOVE LUCY
LUCY & DEZI IS IN HEAVEN, BACK IN THEIR EARLY 30'S YEARS OLD. LUCY SEE YOU COMING AND LEAN HER SHOULDERS ON A NEARBY WALL ETC AND WATCH YOU GO BY ALL THE WHILE SMILING AT YOU!
ALTHOUGH IT WAS MORE EXPENSIVE TO SHOOTING THE FILM USED, DESI DESIDED ON IT. HAD HE NOT WE WOULDN'T HAVE THEM TODAY. THIS FILM LASTED THE OTHER AT THE TIME HASN'T. IT WAS HIS FORSIGHT FOR HISTORY❤
Lucy Jr did kinda sorta look like her famous Mom... But I don't understand why Lucy jr didn't want anything to do with the show but Lucy was actually pregnant with DESI and so the writers decided to keep her pregnancy part of the show but they didn't even have Desi Jr in the show and they got another baby to play little Ricky...
This script was no book ,it was a probably a therapeutic tool ,suggested by Dr Vincent Peele ,an evangelist, Lucy believed in totally and took his advice when she was distressed. He must have advised her to bring out all her angst and trauma about her bad marriage Which is why the tapes stop at the point of her divorce from Desi ,the tool did work ,and there was no need for them any more. But it came in handy to pretend it was a book and publish it and make more money for the heirs
Even if that is true , they were not the first nor will they be the last but that fact the even you know about their marriage says something all on its own… they worked hard and were very talented…. What’s your claim to fame???
