Met a taxi driver who picked her up at the Stuttgart Airport. She was with a woman friend. Taylor seemed very nice so the Taxi driver started asking her about her films. He had seen all of them. He listened intently to what she had to say. It took an hour to get to the destination. She left him with the biggest tip he had ever gotten.

Joan Crawford was drinking on set. And Lucy was bossy because, well, she WAS the boss 😂 Elizabeth was lucky Lucy got her in her mark. They produced that show in four days, from table read to film night, and we're at Mateo's for dinner by nine, according to Lucie Arnaz. Even A- listers like Taylor and Burton weren't treated like Prima Donna's on Lucy's set.

@@canalesworks1247…. Lucille Ball grew up in difficult times. Not just later during the depression when she went to New York to get on the stage, but the tragedy in her family when there was an accidental shooting and her grandfather, her beloved grandfather had to pay a civil price for that. You have no idea of the hard work and the innate talent that Lucille Ball brought to the screen because it took years. And nothing you do in your life - or that I do in my life - will ever equal five minutes of Lucille Ball as Lucy Ricardo.

Many people said similar things... That Lucille Ball was quite serious and blunt in person (even unpleasant), but incredibly smart, hard-working, talented and knew how to create a treat for the audience. She also had a heart, but her playfulness came out on the camera mainly. Interesting to hear Elizabeth speak on her. It's honest and sounds like her experience was a challenge but she appreciates Lucille nonetheless :)

Well the way Lucy's sister Cleo told the story, and she was a producer on this episode and even got Bob and Carol back to write it at short notice. The way she tells the story is Richard asked Lucy at a party if they could be on her show. They approached Lucy not the other way around.

Lucille Ball was, by all accounts (including her own) a heartbroken woman who took her success and the production of her landmark show(s) VERY seriously. The “Lucy” we all love as a character was just that-a character. That’s a testament to Lucille Ball’s ability to “bring it” as a comedic actress. Amazing gift. She struggled like hell and failed to make it at MGM and then hit huge on TV. She was a pain in the butt, but she was a producer. The buck stopped with her. She admitted to others that she was not a barrel of laughs in “real life” because “real life” was unkind to her. She was a businesswoman. In the case of Liz Taylor and Burton, they were reputedly drunk and unprofessional on Lucy’s set. Lucy didn’t put up with that crap. She had a commitment to the network and her team. I heard that she took Barbara Eden under her wing and love that story. I have a silly hunch that Lucy MIGHT have caught Barbara slapping the shit out of Desi as he tried to make a pass at her and Lucy respected her for it forever. Lucy also loved Judy Garland, MGM’s troubled superstar/genius and box office powerhouse. Perhaps she saw in Garland a fellow woman who had been mistreated and run through the industry gauntlet, yet who always brought magic to the screen. Whatever the case, Lucy was a complicated woman. She wanted to get her shows done on time, within budget, and with no nonsense … despite the nonsensical scripts. I don’t think she was a mean person. I think she took her work seriously and was bitter because Hollywood men used and abused her: Desi Arnaz being exhibit A. She was a pioneer of her medium.

“Real life was unkind to her”. Wah wah wah.. That is not an excuse to step outside basic boundaries of decency toward how you treat people. You don’t take your unkind life out on those who are not the cause of it. She sounds like a bully and a perfectionist - not a good combination. I never thot she was very funny in “I Love Lucy” and was embarrassing & rather pathetic in “The Lucy Show”.

When Lucy split with Desi..She took over everything..back then..Women didn’t run A Studio, Hire and Fire or Approve of New TV Series(Star Trek).

I Love Lucy is great because Desi was great. Lucille Ball was a washed up 2nd rate Hollywood actress, a never was more than a has been, who went to radio and later TV because that's what was available to 2nd tier talent. Desi was touring band leader because that's the work he was able to get given his thick accent. Desi was the defacto producer of I Love Lucy and knew exactly how to make Lucille's discipline and broad physical acting work in a comedic setting. Lucille was not naturally funny. Desis was, but understood that as the "Cuban guy" he had to be the straight man. Here's Lucy and The Lucy Show are both just as awful as Life With Lucy, but people missed I Love Lucy so the shows were watched despite the fact that they suck. This dreadful Burton and Taylor episode is exhibit A. It's lousy comedy but it's not the guest stars' faults. Lucille ran the show like an SS officer and nothing was allowed to breathe. Comedy has to breathe to be funny.

My wife can say what she was...I'm a guy so I can't but it begins with a G. I am 100% on Burton's side in this one. Lucy was mean, and by this point in time no longer funny. Also could they have picked a worse sweater for him? Powder blue grampa sweater? Who thought that up? At least later he's in a suit. Burton and Taylor seem very uncomfortable. The lines are awful, and they did the best with what they were given because they were pros. Burton does do something however very interesting at the end of that episode. He has to kiss "Lucy" on the cheek, who melts because Richard Burton just kissed her. He leans in and kisses her cheek a 2nd time, in a very tender way, as though he wanted to kiss "Lucy the American Icon" for American viewers, and put Lucille Ball the autocrat out of his mind. It's very effective. He was after all Richars Burton. Brilliant actor, underrated these days. Liz was decent in this, gorgeous of course and seemly in decent health.

I'd like to see the quotes. Because the way I recently heard the story is that at a party Richard motion to Lucy that he wanted to be on her show. But it had to happen quickly because the Burtons were leaving right after the Oscars. Lucy's sister who produced the show got Bob and Carol back to quickly write it. Anyway no one twisted Burton's arm. It was his idea from the beginning and they were the hottest stars at the time and of course Lucy agreed. I also think some people misunderstand Lucy's ambition. Her mother had to let her go to New York at age 15.

According to Richard, Elizabeth referred to Lucille as Miss (rhymes with bunt). Sorry I can't write that word; it would be censored. Elizabeth found Lucille impossibly controlling and unpleasant, but Richard gave Lucille a back-handed compliment: she taught him that the way to read comedy lines was to shout everything. And if you're even slightly observant, that's exactly what Lucille did in everything after "I Love Lucy."

I LOve Lucy is vaudeville, IMO very effective vaudeville. That makes sense because when the show first went up Lucille was still young enough and pretty enough to pull off the "Vaudeville Honey" or "Burlesque Queen" stereotypes. "I'm Sally Sweet, I'm the Queen of Delancey Street" etc.... All four of them played to the back of the studio audience. It worked in 1951. By 1971 it did not.

Barbara Eden, who played Jeannie in the show I Dream of Jeannie, has said in interviews that Lucille Ball was really kind to her when she appeared in I Love Lucy. Lucille thought Barbara’s costume was too plain for her, and she bedazzled it by hand herself so that it would look nicer on her. Barbara could not believe that Lucille did that for her. Unfortunately, she mentions that she allegedly had to hide on set from Lucille’s then husband and Co-Star Desi Arnaz. It is well known that Desi was allegedly a womanizer and Barbara was married to actor Michael Ansara at the time, and she wasn’t interested. Maybe Lucille appreciated and respected a beautiful lady like Barbara for not wanting anything to do with Desi. It is possible Lucille didn’t like Elizabeth talking with Desi or the flirting she did with men and affairs she had with other women’s husbands.

Taylor doesn't say what a big financial burden both the burtons put on Lucy ,with their extravagant demands ( separate bungalows for both in top hotels ,separate limousine) and the millions of insurance for the ring plus their exorbitant fees and Burton's insistence of hiring his men for the show, when Gary generously offered to take him shopping the greedy man bought 12 sweaters in different colors Richard Burton had himself approached Lucy to be on her show ,and Lucy was never overawed by any celebrity ,when she found Burton doing his own thing she pulled him up. And did anyone like Elizabeth's performance as opposed to Lucy's? I never knew she had such a whiny voice I think they were the winners ,winning applase for the performances elicited from them from the meticulous Lucy in a record of ordinary careers And did Elizabeth remember the days when Lucy was the bigger celebrity and she was a struggling starlet I saw a pic of both Lucy and Desi on the top their car with a tiny Elizabeth looking up to them from the ground ( they didn't even bother to come down for her because the motherly Lucy always treated these child stars like kids) I dont

They were the biggest stars of their time, so it comes with the deal of hiring them.

First of all, not everyone "loves" or "loved" Lucy. Not everyone can watch all those corny old shows and think they are "genius"...that type of "comedy" appeals to a very select type of people. Second, just because you are a "star" does not give anyone the right to be rude and mistreat people. You cannot respect anyone who you move around like an object. It is obvious that Elizabeth was being very diplomatic here. I would love to hear her choice of words in private. I think we can all guess what they would be.

I love Lucy was superb due to Desi. The rest of her shows are hard to watch, excepto a few where Vivian Vance appears. They don't make much sense. Everyone said that Desi was not only the mastermind, the mogul, the businessman, the lesser, but he was Also the funny one and the very charismatic, charming, pleasant one. But they all work great together, very talented but Lucy was the comedic genious in the show. When they divorce She has to do everything and it was too stressfull and it showed on her character.

Nah ... Lucille Ball was a hard taskmaster ... particularly in regards to herself. She demanded GOOD WORK from EVERYONE involved. Always. As fabulous a ratings spike .. the VERY newsworthy 'liz & dick' .. would bring to any (undoubtedly HIGHLY PAID) appearance ... LUCY 😙 ... probably NEEDED to 'position' her STAR player(s) by the shoulders!!! Liz is GREAT! Love her to bits. But THIS was .. UNNECESSARY. 😳

"Unnecessary" that she dared to shatter your illusion that Lucy and Lucille were the same person? If anything Elizabeth Taylor (who is not my favorite actress) was tactful here. Rosie was expecting her to "gush abotu Lucy". Instead she spoke a tactful truth about Lucille Ball.

Coming from someone who hung out with Micheal Jackson. Lol. I’m sure marriage to ETaylor was not easy. Or one would have been enough.

But the final scene in that episode with Lucy behind the curtain behind Elizabeth has me laughing hysterically every time, no matter how many times I watch it, for me it's one of the funniest moments in television. Proof that when professionals work together, discord off camera doesn't always show in the final product.

You look up “overrated” in the dictionary and you can see Ball’s picture.
