I Love Lucy: The Complete Series [DVD]

大変満足。かつて生活していた往年のアメリカ社会が懐かしい。Lucy と Desi は、実生活でも夫婦であったので、言い古された表現だが、息が合っていて小気味いい。 ただ、DVD の再生に region の制約があるのを知らず、商品を受け取った後、再生できず大慌て。これまでの購入品（輸入品）の再生に問題が無かったので、region code の存在に全く気が付かなかった。このようなことが起きないために、今後、region code をもっとはっきり表示してほしい。

Great find! Gift was greatly received. Price was very affordable

Megasnelle levering vanuit de UK. Woensdag besteld en zaterdag in huis. Terwijl bezorgdatum op dinsdag stond; wat ik ook al snel had gevonden. 2 mooie dozen met 29 dvd’s van ‘I Love Lucy’ erin. Super!

Very hilarious and refreshing sitcom.

This is a golden show from the age that they call the golden age of television. It ran on tv from 1951 till 1957 and was a household favourite. It starred Lucille Ball and her then husband Desi Arnaz.It was all about a cuban bandleader and his wife who tried every week to get into show business in spite of her husbands protestations.Their best friends were the Mertzes who owned the apartment block in which they lived played by Vivian Vance and William Frawley.There were 181 episodes made in black and white. There are plenty of bonus material including original opening and closing credits.Commercials with Desi and Lucy coming out before and after the show to promote these products. There are flubs were the actors forget their lines or something is in the frame of the camera that shouldn't be there.Lots of production notes about what went on behind the scenes and radio shows which Lucille Ball did before it went over to TV. It was called My Favourite Husband which had Richard Denning as her husband. Richard Denning would later go on to play the Governor of Hawaii in "Hawaii Five 0" which ran from 1968 till1980. But when it transitioned to TV Lucille Ball wanted her real husband to play the part. The network was against it as they said no one would believe that she was married to a Cuban. She pointed out that she was married to a cuban in real life. They had to make a pilot episode with their own money to show the networks who then went with the idea and with that tv history was made. This is a really funny show even though some of Lucys antics can become a bit annoying at times. But in all they are terrific. I found myself laughing out loud at most of the episodes. Some of my favourites are the ones were the Ricardo's go to Hollywood when Desi auditions for a screen test to be in a movie. A lot of famous stars appear in these episodes including William Holden who gets a cake trust in his face, Richard Widmark when Lucy breaks into his home after leaving the tour bus going past the stars homes and John Wayne whose footprints she steals from outside Grauman's Chinese Theatre. In these times of pandemics and war here is a show that is over 70 years old and still makes people laugh today. Now that is golden. There were a further 3 seasons from 1957 to 1960 that were made which were expanded to an hour and were specials that was called The Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz Show which are available on another set of DVD's and are not included here. But beware that these later DVD's are region 1 only and are only playable on a modified DVD player which plays region 1 DVD's.

Classic show, but please know the DVD box that you're getting is not the one pictured above, it's just the basic box set, not the one shape like a heart, did DVDs are difficult to get out but you do get the classic show every episode,
