Yet another station of mine is showing Lucy.
I have been ignoring it, because the title is WE LOVE LUCY. I thought it was a misprint, but looking it up, it's yet another show! I had no idea she did so many.

"We Love Lucy" has been used for three different packages of the "Lucy-Desi" hours.

One package is simply the thirteen hour-long episodes with new opening graphics.

Another package splits those hour-long shows into 26 half hours.

The third package, which I haven't seen since the 80s, trimmed three hour-long episodes to fit a two-hour timeslot, and had a host (I remember Betty White did one). Those two-hour packages were not regularly scheduled, but ran as occasional specials.
