I don't know if this has been brought up before or not because I don't have time to read through all the posts since I've been gone, but all this month on PBS they have something called 'American Masters: Finding Lucy' playing about 5 times or so. The preview looked like it would be really interesting, but then again it could turn out to be totally inaccurate like most shows about Lucy, but it might still be worth checking out. http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif

"Don't take this personally Ethel, but I'm sick of the sight of your face."

I saw "Finding Lucy" when PBS aired it a few months ago. I taped it, but my videotape got messed up, so I'm glad they're showing it again. It was a great show, definitely worth checking out. A lot of people who knew Lucy and Desi were interviewed, but for some reason Lucie and Desi, Jr. are not included. Anyway, if you haven't seen this yet, make sure you do. Just a warning - the ending is a tearjerker!

------------------
Lucy: "Ever since we said 'I do' there are so many things we don't."

Lucy : "That must be my dear friend Ethel. I'll open the door, Fred."
Fred : "Open it?! I was going to lock it!"

Lucy : "Gee, did you hear that, honey? It's going to be called "Bitter Grapes." I wonder what part they want me for."
Fred : "Oh, you're probably going to be one of the bunch."

This is an excellent show, definitely worth your while to watch.

I hate Iowa Public Television.

This particular program is not on in November and it wasn't on the first time either.

Get your kicks on Route 66!

Happy Birthday to Me!

The Finding Lucy program is also available on video. I've noticed recently, it is included in the CBS 50th annviersary box set featuring the Top 10 ILL episodes.

Oh, well good! Christmas is coming soon too.

I loved this special. I heard it's going to be released on DVD with some I Love Lucy episodes. Has anyone else heard this?
