When Lucy tells Ricky at the nightclub that they’re having a baby is the moment I literally felt their love … I ❤ that moment and I STILL❤ Lucy! Forever.💋

[@paulhenry6105]

Well done! I'm 70 now and remember the feeling I Love Lucy gave me, and still does.

[@HenPapirman]

Glad you feel that way, still.

[@987apple77]

Carol Burnette’s gift to remember. Lucy gave it up on her birthday.

[@dstuart2918]

I read "she would try anything." I been watching ILL for ages; one can never dismiss Vivian Vance--she was a genius and ILL wouldn't have been the same without her. Am I right? When the contract was renewed for 8 million, today's equivalent would be 91 million dollars.

[@marial.6701]

Ethel Mae Potter. We never forgot ‘er. Vivian Vance was brilliant.

[@hanschristianbrando5588]

Yes, you're right, except for your abbreviation of "I Love Lucy." Lucille Ball is said to have seen that on a script and said, "I don't want to do a show that's 'ill'." So from then on the only abbreviation was "Lucy."

[@LJ-ht4zs]

I love Lucy the show and the person - have seen at least 15 of her movies that I think are really good. Also I called them The Fabulous Four - all did their part making this tv show the wonderful show it was. As Desi said once that no matter where he and Lucy went people always asked about Fred Mertz.

[@flyboy13131]

This was really a fantastic documentary !

[@johnm8096]

This was a PBS Documentary very well done.

[@LaMarraPSmith]

THIS IS SO WONDERFUL TO SEE. I TRULY LOVE LUCILLE BALL . I REMEMBER WHEN SHE LEFT THIS WORLD, ( I WAS A YOUNG GIRL AT THE TIME ) IT REALLY BROKE MY HEART TO THINK SHE WAS NO LONGER A PART OF THIS LIFE. I REMEMBER I CRIED FOR (2)TWO DAYS. IT ALSO BROKE MY HEART WHEN I LEARNED THAT DESI AND LUCY WAS DESOLVING THEIR MARRIAGE. I KNEW THAT THEIR LIVES WENT ON, BUT I TRULY KNOW THAT " I LOVE LUCY WAS THE BEST. " LUCY AND DESI WAS GREAT TOGETHER. I MISS THEM GREATLY. REST IN ETERNALY HOLY PEACE DESI AND LUCILLE. I LOVE YOU BOTH.🙏♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️👁👁

[@brendadufaur37]

Such a well done documentary. She had a wonderful movie career too. She didnt have the right vehicle that last show. She loved her work and didnt want to stop.

[@cynthialandis4263]

She is the funniest and best comedy actor I had ever seen in my live.

[@blane1814]

She was wonderful

[@987apple77]

The narrator said she believes there is laughter in Heaven because of Lucy. She had it and I miss them terribly. That show was so big. God Almighty thank you for that show. Boy did they loved each other. My mom is 90 now. She loved that show too. Soon I cry remanicing about them. Desi was heart broken.

[@SaltyChips-dh3mp]

Do you honestly believe my Lord and Creator needed a human being to bring laughter to His dwelling place. Please seek Jesus Christ and learn the truth.

[@carlcleary548]

Thank you for putting this together i remember Lucy ball a really a great comedian and a Legend

[@simplysenia]

My favorite girl ❤ I remember being a little girl watching reruns of Lucy on nick at nite. I miss those days..

[@TMNTfever]

The fact that I Love Lucy was referred to as, "the show", says a lot about its popularity. I never knew that!

[@janebailey8032]

I love how he sings the baby song while big as a house!!! Lol!!! She was great!!’

[@buzzzzzz69]

I just got through watching Lucy's final movie. I strongly advise anyone who is a real fan to watch it if you haven't already. It's called Stone Pillow. It's a serious movie & it shows just how talented Lucy really was. That woman's ability to make us feel emotions is truly a gift.

[@DIAMONDGIRL57]

❤❤❤ Thank you for posting! Beautiful life! Watched her through two generations and still watching!

[@sharinaross1865]

One of my favorite comedians.

[@debbiegoble9836]

I love everything about her and her shows. She will forgotten. I hope the young people watch her.

[@bettywootensmith3176]

This was simply beautiful ❤️

[@FayeStockOney]

Thank you for putting this out there, it was so interesting! Lucy and Desi were the best ❤

[@robfmas]

I think its safe to say that most people enjoyed the original 6 or 7 seasons ILL episodes. An aunt of mine, while watching a rerun many years ago said that "she wore out her welcome". Maybe so, but she was a very talented person.

[@user-cb9ul1ds6y]

This documentary made me cry. Absolutely beautiful. We miss Lucy!!!!!

You Have to Give DESI A LOT OF CREDIT TO! His FACIAL EXPRESSIONS ARE PRICELESS! I LIKED HIM BETTER!! The MOST!!!

I loved Lucy THE MOST!!!!

[@AdeleLarsen-zf8my]

A great documentary ! I truly believe when they divorced neither one could let the other one go completely ,A true power couple ! Much love to Lucy❤️🙏

[@cap10zomb]

Lucy and the lady from the lady from Resident Evil 1 are my favorite ladies of all time. I love them.

[@AmandaYee-yn9dk]

i wish we can bring back the baby boom because now a days people are complaining about couples having children they don't inderstand the joy little children bring

[@joaniec6178]

It’s not about people having children, it’s about people having children that they can’t be bothered to raise or having too many children and it ends up being a drain on society.

You can singlehandedly bring it back. Who is stopping you.

She made him

[@HenPapirman]

Yes, it was because of her that he got the chance. Once he got the chance, he helped her. They completed each other.

[@walle637]

Where did you find this documentary? Did PBS publish tapes or DVDs or this back in 2000? In any event I'm thrilled to see this uploaded in high quality

[@HenPapirman]

More to come, soon.

[@spitfireaace]

Lucy .. something I gots to tell you.

[@margerykirner5604]

She survived because of Desi.

[@mariacardenas4665]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@hanschristianbrando5588]

What a legend--the woman and her career (she did some movies, too, you know). It's a shame they didn't keep Dick Martin in "The Lucy Show," but much of the original situation--Lucy and Viv doing home repairs, the kids, Harry next door and Viv's boyfriend Eddie--was pushed aside in the second season because Gale Gordon was available and the show gradually became Lucy vs. Mr. Mooney. (Vivian Vance was looking to leave anyway.) "Here's Lucy" was as good at it was (not very, much of the time, depending too much on repeated gags and celebrity guest stars) because of Desi Arnaz Jr. at the height of his hotness, and Lucie Arnaz growing as a performer. I never saw the last show because everybody who did said the same thing: it was painful to watch. But "I Love Lucy" will be avidly watched forever.

[@HenPapirman]

If you haven't already, there's a FB group named I Love Lucy and Desi. Her last show is on YT. Watched every episode, while you see repeats there as well, gags wise, it was funny. And yes, sad. Especially one particular part which I won't mention, not to make any spoilers.

[@michaelstacey8303]

Nothing painful about life with Lucy

[@usforsarah]

Desi directed the first season of the Lucy show but then left in part because he couldn’t stand Gary and Lucy insisted he would have a job at the firm (he lived off of her money). Vivian left cause Lucy wouldn’t give her more power/say the show. Here’s Lucy is a nepo show. Living with Lucy was terrible, she didn’t want to do it, but Gary and his hunger for money convinced her. Mame was also a big failure… Desi told her not to do it because her comedy style was different from the movie….

[@SaltyChips-dh3mp]

Ball wouldn’t ‘go for’ Van Johnson since he was homosexual.

[@beckykent6674]

So sad that Desi cheated on her as she just loved him so much!

[@RobinBouterse]

Such a shame Dezi ran around and they were so happy but yet so in love

[@rickgrimes4576]

Bec of the i love lucy, now Im stuck from the past

[@cynthialandis4263]

You should watch a movie from 1985 called Stone pillow will make you cry

[@margerykirner5604]

She survived because of Desi. 55:09

[@HenPapirman]

Both saved and helped each other.

[@Rosiedelaroux]

It’s easy she buried in FOREST Lawn you can find her their

[@Khd387]

Lucille Ball was 1 million times more beautiful than Maureen O’Hara

[@lindaharris6200]

Betty White was much funnier!

[@HenPapirman]

Each each and their thing.

[@lindsaymays7206]

Then why is Lucy known as the Queen of Comedy instead of Betty White?

[@lindaharris6200]

Lucy was born in 1911 & Betty in 1922. Their mom's were best friends & they became best friends

[@JesusismyRock773]

Lucille Ball is only in heaven if she believed in OUR Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

[@JudithRandall-vz1zk]

Well, how unfortunate that someone doesn't get what they want, every minute of every date of their long life, even when it includes great wealth, good kids, and decades of work, and all the perks that come with fame. Her insatiable need for attention is a put off.

[@MsMouse62]

Luckily most people disagree ... Introduced her to two decades of younger generations and they can't get enough of her either..

[@lolitis01]

Funny. You criticize her for the very thing you seek here in your comment.

[@usforsarah]

I don’t think you’re entirely wrong, she was a difficult person in private and people tend to brush that off. She always wanted to do her work well and always tried her best ❤
