I don't think anything like this has really come up before, so I'm just curious...what are everyone's favorite episodes? You can list them either by season, or by format, or just Top 5 altogether...mine are...

First 3 Seasons
-------------------

"Lucy and Her Electric Mattress"
"Lucy and Viv Put In a Shower"
"Lucy and the Missing Stamp"
"Lucy Takes a Job at the Bank"
"Lucy Misplaces $2,000"

Last 3 Seasons
-------------------

"Lucy Meets Sheldon Leonard"
"Lucy Meets the Law"
"Lucy and the Ring a Ding Ding"
"Lucy and the French Movie Star"
"Lucy Gets Trapped"
"Lucy the Star Maker"

I really love all of Lucy's work on this show, but these are particular favorites...let's hear from everyone else!

Who remembers the episode where Lucy was drafted into the Marines? She mistakely got a draft notice for Lou C. Carmichael.

I think that's "Lucy Gets Caught in the Draft," with Jim Nabors in a cameo appearance. It's a very good episode. :)

YES IT WAS, SO SHOCKING TO SEE HER WITHOUT HER WIG! And i thought the Lou C Carmichael was very clever.

I really don't like that ep very much, except for the 1st scene in Lucy's apartment which I watch over and over...go figure...

I like the one where she made the White House (I believe) from sugar cubes, and the one with Robert Alda (Lucy and Viv were competing for his attentions, and, after ruining his Mona Lisa painting with a hot pie pan, put her face into the painting).

Viv to Robert Alda "Mona Lisa is Mona Lucy!"

I remember one with the pennies, and I recently saw the one with Joan Crawford, which wasn't bad.

I have always wondered about the Joan Crawford one...does it show Viv making a "grand entrance", or does it just show her and Lucy driving and the car breaking down? What is the actual plotline about?

Sorry for the questions...but like I said, I've always wondered about it...

I think my favorite has always been Lucy and Viv Put up a Shower. It was one of the first eps I ever saw and I actually thought I was watching an unseen I Love Lucy episode! The scenes with the two of them in the shower were classic, one of the best moments IMO from the whole Lucy Show series.
