View Full Version : Today in TV History: Lucy Ricardo Made A HUGE Announcement On 'I Love Lucy' Brian Damage 12-08-2010, 10:42 AM December 8th, 1952 - On the show "I Love Lucy," a pregnancy was acknowledged in a TV show for the first time. catlover79 12-08-2010, 10:46 AM Lucy was a trailblazer in more ways than one - comedienne, businesswoman, mother, etc. She sure paved the way for other pregnancies (whether the actress was really pregnant or not) to be written into shows with no problem.

He finally gets to Lucy and she nods her head. And at that moment Ricky realizes that it is Lucy who is "enciente" and that he is going to be a father. Brilliant scene! comedyfreak 12-09-2010, 02:12 AM My favorite scene of that episode, chokes me up every time. Lucyeth's 12-09-2010, 06:34 AM What's it gonna be? It's gonna be a baby! Happy 58th anniversary to Lucy is Enciente! catlover79 12-09-2010, 10:23 AM I love the scene in the nightclub where Ricky is asked to sing "We're Having a baby, My baby and me" and he walks around from table to table trying to figure out which couple is expecting.

I cry every time I see that scene - one of the most touching in TV history. To top it off, those were real tears that Lucy and Desi were shedding - the on-and-off screen parents. That just made the scene all the more real and poignant. Marvo301 12-09-2010, 04:11 PM I cry every time I see that scene - one of the most touching in TV history.

I had forgotten that Lucy and Desi were expecting Desi Jr. at the same time Lucy And Ricky were expecting Little Ricky. Your right that does make this scene and this episode so much more poignant and the tears real. |
