I've been watching Lucille Ball since I was a kid and I appreciate her humour more and more. Gale Gordon was terrific too of course, no one could blow his stack like Mr. Mooney. Fabulous comedy.

Lucille Ball gave it her all. She certainly didn't need the money and was nationality and internationaly famous. As she grew older many urged her to quit but she loved the business. She was perfection and the true original. There will never be anyone else like her.

Hearing the opening, I don’t know why, I get emotional. Part of my childhood before realizing how harsh life is and the ugliness of the world. This brings joyful laughs. It’s nice, feels good inside.

[@aidaresto4787]

I look up to some comedia shows to have a time of joy. Most of today's comedy shows are hash and think that using words with double meanings. Which most of the time allure to sex. At least that's what happening with my local channels

[@Gods2ndFavoriteBassPlyr]

@@aidaresto4787 - Yup.. either sex or politics. I love shows from Lucy's era because they don't feel the need to lecture me, either directly or indirectly.. they only seek to entertain.

[@Gods2ndFavoriteBassPlyr]

This particular theme song always brought with it an air of anticipation .. You sat up and paid attention because it felt like something big was about to happen, and we were always excited to see what Lucy was going to get herself into this week!

[@goosewhisperer6275]

I feel the same way! When I hear the opening, it takes me right back to my childhood, sitting in my child-sized rocking chair, waiting for the show to begin. I can still feel the excitement! I'm so glad we had no idea how the world would turn out, in our later years. It wasn't perfect back then, of course, but it was, for the most part, certainly a lot better than it is today.

[@donnabaardsen5372]

I had a coat like hers in that store, in 1968, when I was 13; just in a more youthful cut, different colors of green and yellow. The 1950's, '60's, and very early '70's, wonderful time to grow up. I wouldn't be young today for millions. Our lives were gentler, easier, carefree. AND, safer! These TV shows, including Leave It To Beaver, Andy Griffith, Father Know's Best etc., are really how it was. I am blessed beyond measure to have been born and grown up when I did.

[@debbiepochy6751]

I agree with you completely Donna. I was 10 in 1968 and I would not trade growing up during that time for the world. Seeing these old episodes brings back so many good memories. Wonderful time to be a kid!!

My grandma dressed in her best, even to go shopping during 1978, and granddad wore a suit and tie, and they shopped in a small town. I used to shop at family owned drugstores and discount stores even during the 1980s. Small towns still had them.This ep is so funny.

Lucy says she lives at 780 N Gower Street, Hollywood. That is the address of RKO studios which DesiLu bought. Nice inside joke.

[@akrenwinkle]

Two ancedotes. Ginger Rogers was queen of RKO when Lucy worked there. Later, Rogers moved on, and she was doing a pic at some other studio- I forgot which picture- and said she was going to the bathroom. She came back half an hour or so later. Someone asked where she went. "RKO." Much later, Ginger co-starred with Carol Channng in "The FIrst Traveling Saleslady." Channing would later brag that this awful film put RKO out of business. Maybe an exaggeration, but RKO made no films afterward.

[@supportourcreatives]

I just watched this episode today. When Lucy said Gower Street, I thought of Paramount Studios and I suspected an inside joke. So I went to Google Street view and voila! I probably missed that reference when I saw the original broadcast of the episode in the 60s as I was probably not familiar with studio locations then. In the 70s I was in the audience of sitcom filmed at Paramount - Busting Loose with Adam Arkin..
