From Lucy-tormented Hollywood A-listers and bongo-propelled production numbers to archival goodies such as long-lost footage, there is much to love in this collection of all 13 episodes from The Lucille Ball-Desi Arnaz Show (also known as The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour). Following I Love Lucy's sixth and final season, these monthly (give or take) specials reunited America with Ricky and Lucy (and Keith Thibodeaux's adorable Little Ricky, still living the country life in Connecticut. The expanded, hour-long format allowed for celebrity guest stars and excursions to far-flung locales, such as Japan and Mexico. Not matter where they go, Lucy can always be counted on to act, in Desi's words, "a little crazy in the head," which is how she winds up masquerading as Ernie Kovacs' chauffeur in "Lucy Meets the Moustache" (an episode making its home-video debut), dangling Milton Berle from a construction crane in "Milton Berle Hides Out at the Ricardos," or sparking a uranium uproar in Las Vegas in "Lucy Hunts Uranium."
A highlight of this set is the first-ever home video release of the uncut version of "Lucy Takes a Cruise to Havana," a flashback episode in which Lucy meets Ricky on a "maiden voyage" to Cuba. She also meets future best friend Ethel (Vivian Vance) and her new husband Fred (a toupeed William Frawley), and goes overboard for her first celebrity sighting, Rudy Vallee. Because these episodes do not play as often in syndication, they seem fresher than their endlessly re-run counterparts. They are full of delights for movie, TV, and Lucy buffs, among them, Fred MacMurray getting "Uranium" fever, Maurice Chevalier singing "Yankee Doodle Boy" in the "Mexico" episode, prolific character actor Sid Melton as a bellboy in the "Alaska" episode, and a va-voom Vance decked out as maid and a dance hall girl, respectively, in the "The Celebrity Next Door" and "Milton Berle" episodes. Among this set's prodigious bonus features include 1951 color footage that an audience member surreptitiously filmed, rediscovered scenes that were cut from the original broadcasts, and a filmed presentation to Westinghouse, which sponsored the series. If you don't add this to your library, you have some 'splainin' to do. --Donald Liebenson

I'm a huge fan of the "I Love Lucy" series and thought I had seen every episode until I stumbled across this DVD set on Amazon. While these episodes are actually one-hour long TV specials they pick right up where the original "I Love Lucy" left off. The same old gang in new dilemmas. Although the plots don't always jive with the original series (e.g., Lucy pleads for genuine pearls when they travel to Japan-it seems everyone has forgotten that Ricky bought her some already), these episodes are ...

There's no doubt that this set of Lucy DVDs is great to watch, especially in their very clean DVD format. However, the main reason I bought this set was that there is a bonus feature that runs about 45 minutes which was a specially produced film made for Lucy and Desi's sponsor, Westinghouse. It includes some helicopter shots of Desilu Studios as well as the legendary "40 Acres" lot where many of Hollywoods greatest shows and movies were shot including Gone With The Wind, The Andy Griffith Show, ...

It wasn't what I'd hoped. The old Lucy shows were excellent. This was one of her latest and it just wasn't as good. such is life.

Anyone who is an "I Love Lucy" fan will love this collection of their later hour-long classic episodes, shown as "The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour." The one I particularly wanted to see again was "Lucy Goes to Alaska" with Red Skelton. The hotel room scene was just as hilarious as when I saw it on television many years ago. I equate it with the Harpo Marx pantomine with Lucy on the "I Love Lucy" episode. What a talent!

As a young person i use to watch the repeat broadcasts of "The Lucy & Desi Comedy Hour. I loved everyone of them and laughed out loud each time
i viewed them on tv! My favorites are: winning the race horse "Whirling Jet" in a cereal contest, plus the horse has a crush on Lucy! But what a
"fast" race horse he is! 2. Tallulah Bankhead is lucy's new neighbor!
I laugh til my sides hurt. The dvd print is excellent. just love having
all the episodes on a handy dvd. I was diaappointed ... Read More
