Like most fine comedy, "I Love Lucy" was funny because it touched on real-life problems and concerns. Which of us hasn't had a friend or relative whose idea of gift-giving is to get us something that the giver feels we SHOULD want, rather than anything we DO want? ("Frasier" exploited this idea to even better effect; one year he got his beer-and-sports father a silken English dressing gown for Christmas. Finally, in one episode, he said ruefully, "You know, Niles, I'm going to approach this Christmas differently, and get people things that THEY want." For him, this qualified as a revelation!). It's also implicitly sad that neither Fred nor Lucy -- the two people who should know Ethel better than anyone else in the world -- can "read" her well enough to get her something she'd actually like. Between Fred's cheapness and Lucy's star-struck attraction to anything that suggests the high life ("smart dinner parties") to which she aspires, poor Ethel never stood a chance.

The scene at the play was a winner. They cried and became friends. I could use an old style toaster.

This one is one of my favorite episodes, those funny pants , bizarre, I loved the way they were, true friends and even though they would get upset with each other, they forgave each other always.❤🤷♀️🙏
