I Love Lucy - Lisa G's. Entertainment on Apsense 50's Sitcom Series ~*~ Includes I love Lucy Vid
This blog is dedicated the one and only Zany Red Head, Lucille Ball and to Grand Launching of Lisa G's Entertainment Blogs and Trivia for the Great Sitcoms of the 50's, 60's 70's & 80's.
I love Lucy aired from October 15, 1951 until May 06, 1957 on CBS
181 episodes, including the lost Christmas epioded and original pilot. The show then introduced three more season with 13 one hour specials, from 1957 to 1960, know as the Lucille Ball - Desi Arnaz Show.
I really loved Lucy! Her antics and shenanigans were so much fun to watch. What were your favorite sitcoms?
The I Love Lucy Show has made millions of people laugh over the years, and we are still laughing at the reruns. I don't think I could ever get enough of I Love Lucy. The cast was so perfect too, Ethel & Fred Mertz, and her loving husband on screen and off screen a.ka. Ricky Ricardo (Desi Arnaz). Originally aired on TV on the 15th of October 1951, and ran through 1957.
I once saw a documentary that her daughter did for her parents. She said that her mother, Lucille, was just an unbeliveably talented actress. In real life, she was not as funny. I find it so hard to belive, she seemed like such an natural, right down to her bright red hair.
What a great era for some of the best sitcoms to ever air. I loved them all and still do!

The Lucy Show
The Munsters
The Addams Family

Thanks so much for reminding me about Oprah. I would hate to miss this one.

Hi Nina,
I just got my first Marilyn Monroe Barbie Doll. I found her for a really good bargain on ebay. I wanted the doll from the Seven Year Itch Movie, famous for the scene in her white halter dress over the air vent.
It is funny what women collect. My husband collect Texaco cars, so he does understand my increasing collection. I have run out of room too. My dolls have to set at an angle now, on the shelf, so only half of the doll is visible..lol.
