MYSTERY GUEST: Lucille Ball & Desi Arnaz (If you don't know who Lucy and Desi are. . . )
PANEL: Dorothy Kilgallen, Robert Q. Lewis, Arlene Francis, Bennett Cerf
There was something innocent, kind and classy about this show that we are missing today.
I wish they will bring this program back . I remember it well.😅
Even after her death, Lucile Ball is still the "Worlds Greatest Comedienne." There will never be another like her. Luci and Desi were pioneers in their time.
Exactly
no way, Irene Ryan is no doubt the worlds greatest comedienne.
Absolutely! Lucille Ball.. THE greatest!
@@gingerhaydon4693 Lucille Ball horrible actress. Not funny at all!
In my opinion it can be debated who the best make make comedian is, but for female comedians, Lucy sits proudly on top!
Lucy herself seemed surprised, touched, and humbled by "the world's greatest comediene" comment. And Desi adding at the end by saying, "We'll be back next time with both kids," as if they were just another family next door. At least that's how they made us feel, or who we wanted them to be. I am also tearing up. I will love Lucy and Desi forever. According to Lucie Arnaz the were better friends after the divorce. So great.
The “ with both kids” was because they had already challenged them by throwing them off by going together.
Beautiful comment ❤
20:02 "the world's greatest comediene".... made me tear up. i will love lucy forever
Oeil Photography And Desi too! He was hysterical
"I love lucy was never just a title" - Desi arnaz
@Aaron Morris He seems fine. He said comedienne which is woman/female, not comedian.
Hear Hear. The greatest is right.
I don't get why his first inclination was to "disqualify myself". Isn't the whole point is that as soon as you're confident you have a good guess, you straight up say who you think it is?
Ball and Arnaz were so professional, always. Even when exhausted.... and Arnaz looks tired here..... they are 'on' when those cameras are rolling. Remember, they had two very small kids at the time, a TV show to rehearse and block and perform, and they still had time for appearances like this. Amazing people.
lm sandy He was an alcoholic so he was probably drunk.
Also, he had a ton of mistresses so he might have been tired from that.
In addition to alcoholism and mistresses - he was only 38 here!... still some youth to draw upon!..
Their last name was Arnez - I grew up in the era and positive
Rebecca O'Sullian@ He may have been an alcoholic, but you can tell that he's not drunk there. Don't forget that Desi had a lot of plates up in the air. Aside from acting in "I Love Lucy," he was, also, producing the show and managing Desilu Studios. Back in the 50's, most men didn't go to their therapists to deal with stress and other problems and pressures. They drank. That one cocktail at night to unwind can end up turning into 3 and 4 cocktails and before you know it, you're hooked.
Life would be nearly unbearable at times without great entertainers. Lucy and Desi will always be national treasures.
I love this show, because people actually treat each other with respect and show kindness to one another. The show also displays appreciation towards all kinds of professions and that’s just brilliant.
Absolutely, its great fun and a wonderful peak on an entirely different world!
I was about to say I can’t believe they’re making the comments about the second man and his size. Seems kind of rude to me
@@hizgrase ik lol but back in the day people didn’t get so offended
Unless you’re fat
That's when the world was different, a far better place then today
Victor G. Perry -- man, the man could write. Beautiful penmanship. I wish I wrote like that.
The handwriting was so elegant back then
A Robert Sadly they’re not teaching it anymore
I think they called it cursive?? Lol. These days it looks like chicken scratch! Sad.
@@fallingalice2601 Elegance... I'd say average people were at least better behaved.
Wait till you see Andy Griffith's handswriting loool
Their dictation as well
Beyond the comedy Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz were true geniuses. They knew what America wanted. They weren't afraid to fight with the executives for I love lucy to be exactly what they wanted. #1 SHOW with a movie and film studio, producers, actors, parents. They were just all around amazing. There will never ever be another Desi, Lucy, Vivian and William!!
Desi pioneered the use (and insistence) of taping the show, this so that it could be shown at pre-programmed times across the times zones and also to be used as re-runs. Brillant business decision! It also preserved the show for other ages to view. Remember in the early days of TV, many shows were 'live' and no video exists of many erly TV shows.
Absolutely right. Without them, we wouldn't have Star Trek (The Original Series) which was produced by Desilu Productions for the first time in 1966 after being rejected by all the Networks at that time. Desi and Lucy were lightyears ahead of their time.
And Lucy was the one person who believed in star trek. She got it on tv. And from there.....
Desi also pioneered the use of 3 cameras filming simultaneously: master shot; medium close-up; closeup. The Arnazes mortgaged their home to finance the pilot and because the studio suits didn't think the public would buy Lucy and Desi as a TV couple, they produced the show and completely owned the rights to it. When "I Love Lucy" hit big, Lucy and Desi were sitting in the cat-bird seat.
agreed
I miss that America, even though I wasn't around then. They were all so proper, so polite, polished and well-spoken.
The world was a better place no Twitter/tick tock pricks.not everyone got butthurt over everything no cancel culture.crime was down people took pride in thier work and families had standards I'd give anything to be there
Unfortunately being polite and well spoken has gone down the toilet
Let's also acknowledge operation wetback (which also kicked Mexican Americans out of their own country) and legalized segregation. polite and proper is not a very accurate term for the 50's I don't miss that America at all but this video in it's own right is entertaining.
Only in public
@@johnloudaros800 ASÍ ES 😞
"ITS BOTH OF THEM!" LOL
Lucy's energy is magic. The pairing of these two was GOLD. Lucy's cute wave when they found out is a gesture from old.
And her 'Swiddish' accent!
Yes her little wave was so sweet ❤️
Lucy and Desi sure were a great looking couple. She was so beautiful, and he was a “Cuban dreamboat”, as she said on her show. ❤️
He was!
I love how everyone’s in gowns for a game show.
@ Mica Papa In those days, if a lady was going to be in the public's appearance she needed to wear a hat and a pair of gloves! So a trip to the store, wasn't a casual dress event. Everything was very respectful attire. Jeans, pants of any type on a woman would never be acceptable for anywhere! I remember my mother having many hats & gloves that I asked about as I got older. I asked what & why she had so many? Even as a child, a girl couldn't wear pants of any type to school & that was later in the 60s.
It was a more dignified time.
Glamour sells!

23:05 i just love the way Desi says "what darling?"
I know. Me too.
Lucy & Desi together in their prime and at the height of their popularity, awesome!
realistindenial i8 (
That was so nice seeing them together when they were so young-and looked so happy together.
Yes. That was nice. I'm glad we got to see this footage and experience that moment.
Their marriage was already on the rocks at this point.
There's something so lovely and sentimental about this--I actually got choked up all of the sudden when they revealed themselves. My reaction surprised me. I kinda came out of nowhere. But this was just so lovely!
I had the same reaction.
It was cute when Lucy was waving at them.
accept the part of the body shaming.... and the time to time stereotyping
@@allentoyokawa9068 word word I felt that, too!
Man the applause when they entered, they were rock stars. Also "Desi's tie was blue" is hilarious :D
Well they were the biggest couple under the stars at that time.
I can't believe it took the panel all that time to figure out who they were. The applause alone was a giveaway.
They lived in L.A, so seeing in them in New York was a big thrill.
I am so amused by this, even in 2020. It feels like a lost episode of I Love Lucy.
Yeah, I was actually thinking Fred and Ethel would appear on the following week's show...😏👍
Yes!
I was so heartbroken when Lucy and Desi divorced, I wanted them to be happy because they made their audience so happy and carefree.
Was their show filmed in Los Angeles? Desi said "whenever we come to New York". I thought they filmed in NYC, at least until the show setting moved to California. And were there people back then that did NOT like "I Love Lucy"? Today, we have an incredible spectrum of comedy to choose from, and what is hysterically funny for some does nothing for other people. But back then, there were limited options and a different mindset. By the way, that Duke Snider they mentioned? Hubba hubba!
Jas22....Nope, I Love Lucy was filmed in LA the entire run of the show. They did this mainly for preservation purposes. Back in the day shows wanting live viewings in west coast tv markets were stuck watching poor kinescope versions. Desi was a pioneer in that he decided to take a financial hit (they took a $1,000 a week pay cut but had an 80% ownership of the show) and put the show to film. Another big factor was Lucille had just given birth to daughter Lucie and couldn't really uproot across the country.
Pat Melton Desi always loved Lucy
+jas22 My favorite baseball player from my favorite baseball team from the time of my earliest memories. I can still remember going to my first game in person. It was in September 1957, Dodgers and Giants at the Polo Grounds and I was four years old. (Take the A train from our station in Queens, Greenwood Avenue, to Columbus Circle and then change for the D train to the 155th Street-8th Avenue station.) Being extremely precocious, I knew most of the players and I certainly knew when he would step into the left handed batters box with that big blue #4 on his back. I rooted for him to hit a home run every time up and he hit one: a three-run shot that put the Dodgers in the lead to stay. It was the last game the Dodgers would win against the Giants at the Polo Grounds. The next day was when the last Dodger-Giant game was played in NYC and Curt Barclay of the Giants outdueled Don Drysdale of the Dodgers. The following April, they were playing each other at Seals Stadium in San Francisco and the Memorial Coliseum in Los Angeles. And I never got to see a game at Ebbets Field (although my big brother saw two of them there). I forgave my dad ... eventually!
Pat Melton they were happy and remained the best of friends until Desi’s death 😊
This is how you make a game show. The panelists are literally thinking and TRYING to ask probative questions as best they can, while making it a light mood and having fun where they can with it. In turn guests and audience enjoy the experience.
Desi: "The Swiddish one" The host: "Swiddish?" Lucy: "...Cuban Sweede." Gold. I LOVE her. And I know it didn't work out for their marriage but I will never love any comedic couple more than this one :)
God Lucille Ball was so beautiful
Daniel Ryan She really was. Beautiful eyes, especially.
ReneeDeborah beautiful smile too
+Daniel Ryan by '54, the show was #1 and they were huge stars, huh?
+Daniel Ryan yeah she was. just wish women didn't have that weird way of putting on lipstick back then. made them look less attractive i think. its that odd joan crawford crap.
+Stevie Laurence you wouldn't think so if you had lived back then! you're just used to lipstick trends now lol
My grandmother who is now 97 years of age got to see Ricky and Lucy at the Del Mar race track quite often. She often told me how Ricky would wear simple,comfortable clothes and Lucy would be dressed up. I wish I had been alive during those days.
Dezi's "umhmm's" were too funny!
So was Lucy's "Swidish" accent!
@@loissimmons6558 Want to chat?
When he was on alone in 1951, he tried to use a french accent. And almost blew it but caught himself. U can c the mess up
The world’s greatest comedienne Lucille Ball. Facts are facts.
Lucille Ball was very beautiful in her younger years.Especially in her movies period ( late 1930s- 1940s)
I watched a Three Stooges episode. And Lucy was probably 22 years old in that T.S. episode
Why is this show so damn interesting? I can’t stop watching it. Thanks for uploading so many of them :)
Desi Arnaz was one good looking man.
I love those two. I still watch I Love Lucy.
Robert Q Lewis was a good man. I knew him for the last few years of his life and he was so very kind to me. I miss him.
I know he appeared in quite a few "Bewitched" episodes. Was he a fairly close friend to Bill Asher and Elizabeth Montgomery?
Robert collins I THINK HE WAS MARRIED LOOK FOR A RING
More laughs in just a few minutes than many shows get in an hour.The questions were funny, the answers were funnier and the panel was a scream.
Love that this took place during the 1955 World Series, Dodgers vs. Yankees. This is a great time capsule!
Not only that, this was broadcast the evening of Game 5, where Duke Snider hit 2 HR and a double in the Dodgers 5-3 win over the Yankees.
All I know is....I wish I lived in those times!!!
@@jamesjay5343 Next thing you'll tell me it was also the night of that big thunderstorm in Hill Valley 1955 when Marty McFly tries to get back Gray's sports almanac from Chad Biff...
Mr. Perry performed before the Queen ...... the same Queen who was the Queen in 1955 and is still the Queen in 2020!
Wow even back in 1955 Lucy was already revered as a legend that the man on the left called her the world's greatest comedienne.
Well, to be frank, she was one of the ONLY comediennes in the world.
@@Cosmo-Kramer There was Gracie Allen, Martha Raye, the late Mabel Normand, and Phyllis Diller was on her way up in 1955. But yes, Lucy was the most famous comedienne in the world at that time.
@@lemorab1 And may I add Joan Davis?
@@ginnylorenz5265 You may, but I'd put Lucy and Gracie at the very top.
Lucy and Desi always left people smiling and feeling good. What a blessing.
I remember being a very small girl...............and seeing Arlene's heart necklace, and wanting one very badly. Fast Forward to 1985. I got one. Not as large, but a diamond heart necklace just the same.
Arlene is so beautiful and vivacious, how could she be married to a dork like Martin Gabel.
And hers was stolen in the 80’s. 😪
Arlene and dorothy where gorgeous back in the days. And am 32 lol
Good for you!
tony tony said you and Jean Valjean both.
They were awesome! I miss Lucy and Desi. Though divorced I believe, deep down, they loved each other all of their lives.
Their daughter, Lucie, told how when Desi was dying, Lucy was on the phone with him saying over and over, "I love you, I love you, I love you.........." They couldn't live together......but the love never died.
YES, I BELIEVE THAT WAS CERTAINLY TRUE.OXOXXO SNIF.
So many of the guests have such nice penmanship.
I've always really liked Desi Arnaz. He was a remarkable, talented and innovative man.
I'm an Cuban American...one of my favorite show... greatness and clean back then. R.I.P FOR BOTH WE LOVE YOU AND REMEMBER YOU ALWAYS..
My mother and father watched I ❤ Lucy, I watched I ❤ Lucy, my children watched I ❤ Lucy and now my grandchildren watch. It has remained a favorite in my family for generations. It makes me happy when I see the grandchildren laugh at Lucy's antic's. We still love Luci and Desi ❤🌟🌟
i love seeing Lucy out of character, she is so sweet & has a almost a shyness about her.
I have read much about Desi and Lucy and you are very perceptive. Lucy WAS actually shy and Desi was the outgoing one. It is said he was the life of the party when they were entertaining at home while Lucy was serious and quiet. She was a complex person and he was a typical Latin womanizer. She couldn’t understand why he would say he only loved her, and that his dalliances didn’t mean anything. Even after they split up and both remarried, they remained close until Desi’s death. A tragic love story for Lucy and Desi.
I'm jealous of everyone's handwriting
Lucille seemed so touched when Robert said that. Deservedly so. Comedy has NEVER been the same. No man or woman has come anywhere near her talent.
We've lost so much goodness and class since those days.
Lol goodness and class. None of the lives of these people were good or classy. One was murdered, another was a mistress, another sued for plagiarism, one was an alcoholic wife beater and another was a battered wife. What you see on the screen is not real. It's TV
@@zazabrown732 I love watching this show but the comments are so damn delusional, lmao. The entertainment industry isn't any different today.
@@ggultraps exactly. They're are still.the exact same. Get married multiple times, have affairs, are estranged from their kids, abuse drugs, waste their money, try to unabashedly exert their power and privilege etc and yes some are good regular people.
The world would be a better place if we could have the descentcy of those days.
Have we ever?
This was such a wonderful show. Whenever I feel like a flight of nostalgia to take me out of today's world, What's My Line is the perfect ticket. And to the commenter below, yes, Lucy and Desi were good at hiding their marital problems, but if you know what to look for, you can tell from their body language that they are not close. But they knew how to keep up a professional act. And in response to another commenter, Desi Arnaz remained a powerful force behind the camera after he stopped performing in front of it. As far as producers go, Goodson-Todman and Desi Arnaz -- the first for game shows and the other for sitcoms -- changed television forever. Look up Desilu Productions and see how many shows he created produced. He was a brilliant man.
LauraMorland Thanks for your comment-- I'm glad you enjoy the shows, and I appreciate the insight you've offered into Lucy and Desi. As I recall, Desi produced the first season of "The Lucy Show" after their divorce, didn't he? I always wondered how they managed to make that work at all!
What's My Line? According to the editors of Wikipedia, "The original Desilu company continued long after Arnaz's divorce from Ball and her remarriage to Gary Morton. Desilu produced its own programs and provided facilities to other producers. Desilu produced The Andy Griffith Show, The Dick Van Dyke Show, The Lucy Show, and Star Trek." However, the show itself did not survive their divorce (in 1960): "The black-and-white series originally ran from October 15, 1951, to May 6, 1957, on CBS. After the series ended in 1957, however, a modified version continued for three more seasons with 13 one-hour specials, running from 1957 to 1960, known first as The Lucille Ball-Desi Arnaz Show and later in reruns as The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour." I can remember learning about their divorce (I was 5 years old) and being very sad about it. However, the original show remained in reruns (Desi was the first person to institute TV reruns!) and so I forgot about it while enjoying the show.
What's My Line? P.S. Where do you get these copies of the show? I looked it up because I stumbled upon Kitty Carlisle's autobiography and had misremembered that she was a regular panelist on the show. Kitty states that people were always getting her an Arlene Francis -- by the way, they had known each other since they were both starlets in the 1930s -- mixed up, She added that her in opinion "What's My Line" was a more important show than "To Tell The Truth." But I see from KZhead that Kitty was a fairly frequent guest panelist on WML... and I just realized that she stood in for Dorothy Kilgallen on the Sunday after her death. Arlene Francis looks terribly grief-stricken in that episode, by the way; the two women must have been very close.
+What's My Line I either read or saw an interview recently (probably with daughter Lucie if it was the latter) that after their divorce and when he was still involved with Desilu before she bought him out, he would show up at the studio when Lucy was either rehearsing or doing whatever show she was in at the time. It was a test of her professionalism as it made it more difficult for her.

Loved this show! Loved the baseball scorekeeeper, the pickpocket, and especiallly Desi Arnaz and Lucille Ball in their good days, at the top of their game.
Wow so classy, regal n beautiful. I can never get enough of them . I watch them every morning for 4 hours on Hallmark ! So sad, like to think there in heaven together making everyone laugh
Anna Santiago Amen
*they're (contraction of "THEY aRE") Don't put spaces before punctuation marks.
Amazing how Ricky would not get visibly upset when folks made fun of his accent..when in reality he was bilingual and they were not!
Plus He was smarter than all of them . He started his own studio.
Tony people were not so sensitive back in that time period. Everyone nowadays is hypersensitive about everything. Also Desi Arnez that nobody was genuinely making fun of him. A person with class and dignity and honor, Rise above any such things.
The greatest comedian of all time. How true. Miss you Lucy & Desi.
What a treat to watch. I love and miss them both
I loved this show, was just a kid when it was popular.
They were simply beautiful! Lucy and Desi.
Lucy Was a Beautiful # 10 Looking Woman, Even in her Older Age May she & Desi RIP & Brought a lot of Joy to us Growing up with her & Desi etc. They are Sadly Missed by all who Loved them etc.
Two of the most delightful people! Lucy and Desi. RIP!
I was born in 98 and grew up still loving I Love Lucy. >.< They are so great
The respect the panel had for Lucy and Desi is very evident in the banter between them..
Stunningly beautiful woman, we forget that she was a successful model, before her break in movies. I think she is in the top 10 of the most beautiful women in classic hollywood.
Shows like this should be back on tv
I love this episode so much. I just love Desi Arnaz and Lucy so much! 💙💙💙💙
wish I could go to every era and spend 1 day
Adriana Jimenez that has always been my dream...I would absolutely love to do that..I can't imagine anything in the world that would be more exciting to do then spend time in every era
A time traveler
I had that same dream for many years also.
I'm with you on that.
Maybe in heaven.
I love how Victor G. Perry signed his name. I always admired the penmanship of that era.
Me, too!
It's really nice to see a show and a time when women were ladies and men were gentlemen....in speech, attire, modesty, poise as well as charm. Unlike today when vulgarity is the norm. It is quite a shame how society has turned out.
3GDOSRSFS All thanks to the hippies and flower girls. If they only knew.
The days of my childhood. It would be great to return to that civilized time.
Ah yes, I sure do miss the good, old fashioned, sexism of the OLD days.
3GDOSRSFS Ah yes. I sure do miss all the good, old fashioned, sexism of the OLD days...
oh please..typical liberal reply..the 1950's werent perfect but there sure was alot more class, morality and modesty in society unlike most of the media today which is vulgar, dumbed down , twisted, immoral and morally messed up
the Pickpocket's exit... absolute perfection.
The 'Mystery Guests' are REAL stars!!!
Love those bygone days. We get a chance to see people having excellent manners, intellect, respect..A time when the Stars were a class act.
Yes, they were acting - that's their job. Their personal lives weren't on display like all the for-profit rumor-mongoring done today. This show was for broadcast, thusly it was very clean. If you'd gone to a nightclub back in those days, you'd find the jokes, inferences, and some of the songs just as dirty as what is broadcast today.
People had so much class back then. They really were america's heros. Both rose up from nothing to the peak of their profession even owning a studio and they both represented marriage and family. You could see there were very much in love. I believe Lucille when she spoke of the letters that she received of people begging her not to divorce. The TV studio bosses said America would never accept a Cuban married to Lucille and when they divorced America could not imagine them being separated from each other. America knew the whisperings that Desi drank and was unfaithful but to America this couple was family and America reacted to them as if they were family. That is as much a compliment, to be loved as family by an entire nation, as is rising from poverty to aristocracy.
Although, one has to wonder...20 years of a hit series...plus a major Hollywood Studio...one has to wonder...what happened to all that money? Lucy died and her house hadn't been remodeled since "The Lucy Show" went off the air. The whole house had to be gutted because it was so out of date...and the jewelry...it certainly didnt wind up with Lucy Arnaz.
Vic Perry, the pickpocket, died just 19 years after this episode. He also played in "The Atomic Man", "Julius Caesar", "Raiders of the River", "Mozambique" and a few other shows and movies. I wish I could find a video of Victor G Perry pickpocket.
I love them so much! I wish Desi was a faithful husband because they're such a cute couple.
Everyone loved Lucy and Desi but by no means was he a faithful husband but they did love each other till the end 😳
Oh my gosh this episode was really quite fascinating/fun...62 years later? Wow!!!
I have watched all of them from the beginning through this one, and this one made me laugh more than any other. I don't normally care for Robert Q. Lewis, but he was on a roll during the mystery guest. Lucy and Desi were funny. Swiddish. I was dying.
I love that Robert Q. Lewis said that Lucy was the world’s best comedienne
15:45 I'm posting this a week after the queen passed away. He just mentioned preforming for her, and my mind immediately said, "It's the same queen." It just blows my mind given how long ago this was. She had one long reign.
December 2023 and I still LOVE LUCY and DESI! They were my favorite 2nd family I would visit every morning as a child! 😂 Years later I saw movies Lucille Ball made (prior to marrying Desi) and found she was a Hollywood Beauty in her own right! 💞
Both of these brilliantly talented comic geniuses were also devastatingly attractive physically...and oozing charm...just beautiful!
I will Love Lucy and Ricky forever!! Thank you technology for reruns!!!!
Wikipedia says this about Arlene Francis: "Francis was known for wearing a heart-shaped diamond pendant, a gift from [her husband] Gabel, which she wore on nearly all of her What's My Line appearances. A mugger robbed her of the pendant as she was leaving a New York City taxi in 1988." You can see the pendant at 1:21 in this video.
Oh no, that’s awful. Our society has “progressed” but not in the right direction. 😢
Lucy and Desi come in at 17:00 :)
But watching the pickpocket was just as great as getting to the Desi and Lucy stuff
Thank you!
Big deal
orhugs thank you I fast forwarded to find them.
orhugs thank you I fast forwarded to find them.
Am I the only one who thought it was so cute that Lucy had her handbag with her, even on a television show? No one would do that today. They’d have some assistants they would leave it with.
I noticed that, too!
Desi was soo charming and handsome 😇Lucy always gorgeous 😇
I was born in the wrong time. I’m 15 and Im Obsessed with Lucille and old sitcoms
One of my idols (Maegan Machine, who is a natural redhead) idolizes Lucille Ball. Lucy was such a gem back in her day and I can see why everybody idolized her personality, character and charisma. Such a glamorous sense of humor, you can see it here in this show when she does the fake accent. This is coming from a 90's kid who truthfully, doesn't know that much about her to see that she was good. Lucille Ball, you have and will always be, the queen of comedy! 💖💋 Kathy Griffin has nothing on you.
I idolize Lucille Ball and I'm a FAKE redhead, just like her and my other idol, Rita Hayworth.
You're right Griffin can't hold a candle to Lucy!
Kathy Griffin?? She isn’t fit to wipe Lucy’s boots! I wouldn’t even talk about them in the same sentence. The ONLY thing those two have in common is the color of their hair, and Lucy’s wasn’t real….Kathy’s is.
Every single person up there is dead. Rip to all of them.
Everything ends.
Lmaooo
They live on in film for us, though, which is more than you and I will do.
Not dead but alive in the spirit world until the rapture.
Grow up, Barb
I love Lucy originally ran from October 15, 1951, to May 6, 1957 and so at the time of this show they were still doing new shows. What is beyond amazing is I dont think even after that its ever been off the air.
Watched them since I was 3... I’m 60 now...I LOVE ❤️ LUCY!!!
Swidish. Even in real life Lucy made fun of his accent. Too funny.
Yeah, but he didn't like at all...
@Rene S You're right. He would allow his accent to be made fun of on the show, but only Lucy could do it. He wouldn't allow others to do it.
Yes, he was anoyed and rightly so. Especially in those days when everything none white was hated, stereotyped and misunderstood. He did right to set his boundaries.
aDBo'Ch 1 Bcause, tho Mr. Arnaz, may not have appreciated it, @ da time.... we loved him, 2! Accent, & all. I do understand tho. I have spent time around lotz of Cuban Americanz & tho there were lotz of misunderstandingz, & relationshipz dat went down n flamez, from da start. Da people I got along wit, were VERY lovable & made da horrible job we were doing 2gether, bearable. I do know, they would sumtimez hold themselvez back, bcause they felt they had no grasp of da language & I'd try & tell em, my English, iz just azz bad azz my Spanish! LOL!!!
@@bradleyscarton3931 Fred called him a Cuban Mush Mouth several times on I Love Lucy.
Love this. And I really love just how these fine folks, guests, hosts and contestants, ARE with each other. It’s just so pleasant to watch and experience
Those where great days,and wonderful people r.i.p.Lucy and desi
How come actors of the 40s and 50s spoke so elegantly...they must have gone through a speech training to speak in that certain way so typical of the Hollywood actors of that era, and yes, beautiful handwriting too.
This was so enjoyable, I was laughing out loud. Thank you for these wonderful old (great shows).
How nice it is that Lucy and Desi were both true fans of the show.

Totally loved Luci and Desi Arnez
I Love Lucy. RIP Lucy and Desi. May they be together forever!
I absolutely loved the segment with Mr. Perry. Anyone who can do what he does simply amazes me.
I still watch I Love Lucy today in 2023 . Show is timeless and the funniest ever made .
Victor G. Perry has the best signature I've ever seen!!!
