Editor's Note

I LOVE LUCY debuted on CBS in 1951 and quickly set a new standard for situation comedy with its well-crafted plotlines, live tapings, multiple camera angles, and one of the finest ensemble casts in television history. Centered around the domestic life of zany redhead Lucy Ricardo (Lucille Ball) and her Cuban-born husband Ricky (Lucy's real-life spouse Desi Arnaz), the series also broke cultural ground by featuring an interracial marriage and a female lead that was less than the perfect housewife. Indeed, it was Lucy's neverending quest to muscle in on her husband's show business career--often with the help of meddlesome next-door neighbors Fred (William Frawley) and Ethel Mertz (Vivian Vance)--that provided the show its main comedic thrust and continues to lend it a timelessly classic appeal. This collection presents all 31 episodes from the ratings-busting second season, including the absolutely hilarious chocolate-factory classic "Job Switching" and the groundbreaking shows revolving around Lucy's pregnancy, which set records for the highest ratings of 1953.

5 of 5 Well Done Restoration Friday, September 24, 2004
A Viewer from Las Vegas  

I bought this set for my wife and have been very pleased with the picture and sound quality of the restoration. The menus are laid out in a very user-friendly way and the original openings are a little bonus. I've never been a big Lucy fan, but watching these old shows is quite entertaining. We've only watched part of the first disk so far, but I can highly recommend this DVD set.
