LDCH Episode Synopsis (w/images): “Lucy Wants A Career” & “Lucy’s Summer Vacation”:

Note: These episodes were originally called “The (Ford) Lucille Ball-Desi Arnaz Show” and “The Westinghouse Lucille Ball-Desi Arnaz Show” Apparantly from the late 1960s to 1987 or so, these episodes did not see the light of day. It wasn’t until 1987 that these episodes saw the light of day when they were at first shown as TV specials called “We Love Lucy” (not to be confused with the three Reelz channel specials that dealt with Lucille Ball called “Lucille Ball: We Love Lucy” and also not to be confused with the umbrella title that these LDCH episodes were given when they were shown in syndication.) One of the specials was hosted by Betty White which included edited versions of “Lucy Goes To Alaska”, “Lucy Goes To Sun Valley” & “The Ricardos Go To Japan.” The second special was hosted by Lucie Arnaz. It includes “The Celebrity Next Door” and a few others that I don’t know. The third specials information as far as the host and the episodes are a mystery to me. Each episode contained at least one guest star. After these specials, these episodes were syndicated to TV stations under the umbrella title “We Love Lucy” and were badly edited with the second half-hour showing recap footage from the first half hour. Why the recap footage was needed is beyond my comprehension. But these episodes were still being shown in local syndication as late as 2006. Here’s proof

You will notice that there is a bug on the bottom right that says My13 Los Angeles. The station is KCOP and that logo indicates that it is affiliated with My Network TV which launched in 2006. These episodes were shown for the first time with the non sponsor advertisements in 1995 on N@N.
