Anybody who wants to sit through the whole thing will surely have some serious 'splaining to do Monday morning. But go ahead and watch anyway. It sounds like fun!

Thank you for advising me, but don't you find it nauseating when they keep showing marathons of shows they have been repeating for the past year non stop? I will have the set on all weekend and I'm glad it's Lucy and all instead of the others, but part of me is upset they are making some fans sick of the shows with this type of programming. You know, repeating the same ones over and over. If they played the six years in order, but no, two years of shows for one year of presentation and then start again and again . . .

The Modfather · 08-07-2003, 09:41 AM

^ Well said, But thanks I will be watching it. It will be good, some episodes I haven't seen like "Lucy Cries Wolf". So I will be watching that one for sure.

SPLAIN · 08-07-2003, 11:03 AM

Oh don't get me wrong, i'm thrilled they're doing a marathon of Lucy, but the repeating the same episodes all the time has got to be a turn off for some potential fans. Like they stop the Hollywood trip at the same place all the time and start over, instead of at least showing the trip to the end. But, as i watched last night, i was thinking, aren't the copies clear though? Guess they have these new masters now, back when i was a kid, we watched these old scratched up copies.

bweir · 08-07-2003, 12:24 PM

according to the TV Guide Canada website, "new" episodes will be added shortly.

SPLAIN · 08-07-2003, 02:10 PM

Yes, i figured they HAD to do that to compete with the new Fall Season on the networks and other cable outlets. Thank God!

Lucyfreak86 · 08-09-2003, 09:18 PM

Thanx!! I'm watching "Never do business with friends."

SPLAIN · 08-11-2003, 11:35 AM

Yes, but they still kept repeating the same shows they've been showing for a year now! However, it was like having a lucy channel all weekend.
