How often do you watch Here's Lucy? How many times a year/month//week/day?

My overall viewership of Here's Lucy has been declining over the years. I have seen just about each episode about a million times to the point where I just watch the show on occasional basis. The same goes with The Lucy Show and The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour.
Also, I have realized that I'm slowly loosing interest in her post-ILL work. I don't know why but it's kind of scary. I mean, Lucille Ball is my favorite all-time actress and since she is that it would make sense that I would have a lot of interest in ALL of her shows, not just ILL. I guess my tastes are steadily changing.

It happens to all of us, we get to know the material TOO WELL and we lose interest, it has happened to DawsonGirl and it has happened to me also, but i'm happy to say it always eventually comes back, something that is great stays great, and when you're a fan of the magnitude some of us here are, it eventually comes back, trust me!

Same with me. I used to watch my Lucy Show DVDs allll the time, but now, I haven't watched them in almost 3 months, and my interests are more in movies at the moment...

But, you always come back to Lucy...:)

Yes, true, like a comfortable old shoe. The shoe massages your feet, watching Lucy excercises your heart.

I only have three episodes of Here's Lucy, but I watch them all the time, lol. Thank you Claude for including them on my tapes because I would be missing out on a great show without them. I can't wait till the DVD's come out! :)

Now remember that i put those on there on your OLD tapes before i was threatened by Paul Brownstein, the lawyer, i haven't sent any to anybody since although other people do it all the time. Solution, put the whole series out there dummies!

I wish that they would put out Here's Lucy on DVD. It has been nearly 20 years since I last saw a rerun of Here's Lucy on TV. The San Antonio station aired it in the mornings back in the early 80's,and I was in school at the time,so I had to wait until holidays and summer vacation before I could see it. The episodes that I can remember right off is the one where Kim buys a car from Phil Silvers,the one with Liberace,and the Hawaiian cruise episodes with Vivian Vance guest starring and Desi Jr. and Lucie singing a duet,and the one with Wayne Newton where they visited him at his ranch.

They have never treated Here's Lucy with the same courtesy that they did with I Love Lucy and The Lucy Show. Here's Lucy was hardly seen after the mid 80's. One of these days,it will be on DVD or hopefully a channel will pick up reruns of Here's Lucy.

It is coming out on DVD. It'll feature 24 of the "greatest episodes" and lots of special features. They're planning on releasing it in May, so look out for it. :)

Yes, finally, the top 24, then they should keep going with the other 120! 5 more releases of 24 each. If they sell well enough, they WILL do it you know!

I haven't seen this show since it was on PAX several years ago.

That's still better than most people today who have NEVER seen it at all!

Instead of doing "THE BEST OF" and they should just release the whole series by seasons. Each season had 24 episodes.

I'm with BravesFan, I haven't seen it since about 1985 either whne a local station in Louisville, KY showed it at 5:30pm every weekday. Our PAX affiliate was (and still is) to busy airing infomercialls for 14 hours a day, so I didn't get to see it on PAX.

For some reason, some shows do well selling DVD's and others do not. Mary Tyler Moore's show is not selling so maybe they are afraid to get stuck with them and are just testing the waters with the first 24 BEST OF Dvd's?

I watch my one episode (Lucy meets Lucille Ball) quite alot. :) Thank you kind person who will remain nameless to protect his innocense. ;) :lol:

I sent it to you BEFORE i was warned not to! And that was the single one i sent the most, it defined the show to me!

Actually, there weren't 24 eps in each season. The first had 24, most of the rest had 23 each...

So how did they get to 144 in six seasons then?

Good question, since 24 x 6 is 144, but I remember counting the number of eps in a few different seasons of HL, and they did not equal to 24. Maybe some had more than 24, some less, because there's no way each season had exactly 24...

Sure's there's a way -- producing the same number of episodes per season is fairly common practice in the TV business. Each season had exactly 24 shows (check out the link below). Lucy began the practice of producing 24 segments per season in the later years of "The Lucy Show".

Wow, thanks for the link, the listing and the settling of this argument, LOL! I kept forgetting to look it up.

Hmm, well, I stand corrected, even though I didn't consider this an "argument".

I guess why I was wrong was because I was taking the number of the last episode of a season, and subtracting that from the number of the first ep of the season, and that produces a number that's one less than the actual, for some reason...

It's just too bad that sitcoms nowadays can't do that same large numbers of episodes, i.e. Friends - only 17 eps this season :eek:

Hard to imagine that some shows like Petticoat and Green Acres had as many as 37 in their first season :eek:

I love Lucy had 35 it's first year also.
