I hope so, too. The networks are going to run out of new programming in a few weeks, so it seems like a no brainer to do some more colorized Lucy. Maybe they'll do some more Dick Van Dyke or some other shows, too.

I guess we are not getting any colorized episodes this spring. I haven’t heard any definite announcements yet but usually when their is a colorized special in May, we would hear about it for now. What a shame. Unless they decide to have one in the summer.

BTW, I have the new colorized Lucy DVD that came out last fall. In the bonus feature, they showed a brief colorized clip of The Freezer. It seems like The Freezer would be the next one to be colorized. They also showed the colorized XMas tag from The Fur Coat. Maybe they will show The Fur Coat episode this XMas? I hope they show these episodes that I am going to say here soon. The episodes? The pilot, Redecorating, Lucy & The Dummy and perhaps Country Club Dance. Country Club Dance would have been great for those Lucy Colorized Superstar Specials that they did since BARBARA Eden makes an appearance. Sure she was an unknown than, but still. I think they should colorize this one soon while Mrs. Eden is still with us. (She is now 88.)

Me too! Isn't it always at Christmas and Mother's day?

Last year, it was during April and it had a money theme because it occurred a few days after Income Tax Dqy. In 2018, there was NO special during the spring.

I have a great idea for one episode to be colorized & shown now, that's the show where Ricky, Lucy, Fred & Ethel are all annoyed by their partner's small habits. Ricky stirring, Fred jingling, Lucy singing (I forget what her annoying habit was) and Ethel loudly eating candies. That's a perfect color episode for today now that we're all cooped up.

Maybe another one appropriate for today coloring would be when the whole gang got stuck in a log cabin due to a huge snow storm outside. Or maybe it wasn't everyone, as I recall I think Ricky rescued them, so guess he was on the outside. Well, that's a slightly good one.

OH Nuts!

Even though I really prefer B & W as it feels more authentic, I KNOW MANY want colorized eps. And you should have them! Why colorized versions haven’t been widely rolled out yet is a mystery to me.

This is true. There are always angry reactions to colorizing episodes. I always say, the black and white isn't going away. Just don't watch the color version if you don't like it.
