Lucy Ricardo is the wacky wife of Cuban bandleader Ricky Ricardo. Living in New York, Ricky tries to succeed in show business while Lucy -- always trying to help -- usually manages to get in some kind of trouble that drives Ricky crazy. Their best friends are Fred and Ethel Mertz, who are also their landlords. Usually, Ethel becomes Lucy's less-than-willing partner in crime. Ricky and Lucy welcomed little Ricky in 1953, whose birth was a national TV event. Later in the show's run, the Ricardos (and the Mertzes) moved to Hollywood, where Ricky tried to become a movie star.

The LOLs don't exactly come thick and fast, but I'm a sucker for snappy, old-timey lines. Go to Full Review Bill Gibron PopMatters 06/01/2018

The collapse of Lucy and Desi's marriage took years. That these sad stories underlay such great comedy is part of I Love Lucy's enduring legacy. Fifty years later, the truth is apparent in every minute of this final, fascinating season. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Stephen C @bob25009 May 22 The least funny season of the series!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See more 06/30/2020 I enjoyed most of the I L L episodes...I felt some of The Lucy Show endings were kind of stupid, and some of the endings left us sort of 'Beijing's but that was NOT the fault of the performers but the writers. In this year of the pandemic. The killer bees flying around and now news of the mosquitoes bringing us the West Nile Virus once again this helps relieve much of the stress. Other sitcoms as well... mosquitoes once again See more Read all reviews
