  I LOVE LUCY 3RD SEASON
Review created: 04/23/06
8 of 12 people found this review helpful.

Over 50 years ago during the early years of broadcast television, the very inspired talents of Lucille Ball (1911-1989) and her then husband Desi Arnaz (1917-1986) were showcased on their hilarious television show "I Love Lucy". TV execs had initially rejected the plausibility of the show because of Desi and because they intended to tape the shows. However, thanks to the tireless efforts of Lucille Ball and Desi's obvious talents, the show first aired in 1951 and quickly became one of the most successful TV shows during all six of its regular seasons. As Lucy and Ricky Ricardo on "I Love Lucy", Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz were joined by William Frawley (1877-1966) and Viviane Vance (1909-1979) as their best-friends/apartment landlords of Fred and Ethel Mertz.

The third season of "I Love Lucy" that aired between 1953 and 1954 has 31 memorable episodes:

1. "Ricky's 'Life' Story": Not happy about being ignored in Ricky's magazine interview, Lucy gets back at Ricky.

2. "The Girls Go Into Business": Lucy & Ethel purchase a dress shop, but things don't turn out as profitably as they had imagined.

3. "Lucy and Ethel Buy the Same Dress": Getting a rare opportunity to perform on TV for their women's club, Lucy & Ethel purchase the same dress.

4. "Equal Rights": When Lucy & Ethel demand equal rights from Ricky & Fred, the men only think that they are getting back at them at a restaurant.

5. "Baby Pictures": Lucy's jealousy over Carolyn Appleby's (Doris Singleton) baby as compared with Little Ricky is not advantageous to Ricky's upcoming appearance on a TV show hosted by Carolyn's husband.

6. "Lucy Tells the Truth": Lucy bets Ricky that she can tell the truth for 24 hours and drives everyone crazy.

7. "The French Revue": Ricky bets Lucy $50 that she won't be able to sneak into his new French review club act.

8. "Redecorating the Mertzes' Apartment": Lucy helps Ethel & Fred redecorate their apartment, including new paint and new upholstery with obvious results.

9. "Too Many Crooks": Ricky thinks Lucy is the notorious "Madame X" that has been robbing nearby apartments; she's really been collecting objects for a club bazaar.

10. "Changing the Boys' Wardrobe": Disgusted by Ricky & Fred's aging wardrobe, Lucy & Ethel sell their husband's old clothes to a second-hand man.

11. "Lucy Has Her Eyes Examined": A visit to an eye doctor doesn't help Lucy audition for a jitterbug number that she has practiced for.

12. "Ricky's Old Girlfriend": Lucy's worried about Ricky's reaction to a visit in NY by one of his old Cuban girlfriends: Carlotta Romero.

13. "The Million-Dollar Idea": Lucy & Ethel's TV commercial to sell Lucy's salad dressing ends up doing much better than expected.

14. "Ricky Minds the Baby": Ricky doesn't do as good a job as Lucy of taking care of Little Ricky.

15. "The Charm School": Lucy & Ethel go to charm school to keep Ricky & Fred interested in them.

16. "Sentimental Anniversary": Lucy & Ricky want to have a quiet wedding anniversary, but Fred & Ethel have other ideas.

17. "Fan Magazine Interview": Lucy & Ricky prepare for a fan magazine interview, but a quarrel between them could change the interview outcome.

18. "Oil Wells": The Ricardos' new neighbors want them to invest in oil wells.

19. "Ricky Loses His Temper": Lucy bets Ricky that he can't keep his temper and that she won't buy

Everything, Lucy has been an all time favorite since I was little. It is hilarious. I have the first three and eventually plan on getting the others as well. Season three is one of my favorite seasons.

Always wanted to obtain the complete series at a reasonable price., decided to purchased each series separately. Bought this at a good price and DVDs were in excellent condition, considering they were used. Probably not played very much.

  Great family TV
Review created: 12/07/07

I took the time to write out many reviews on the I Love Lucy shows because it is just great TV. I can no longer trust "Family Hour" on TV anymore. It is filled with so much crap that I can not alow my kids to watch Tv with out us supervising it first. That is why I love these old classic tv shows, and I Love Lucy is the best. Very funny and we just loe seeing how much trouble Lucy can get in to and out of and what she does to pull everyone else into the drama. I have all the I Love Lucy and plan on buying the other shows she has done.

  "I Love Lucy boxes sets are always a great value!
Review created: 10/20/06

Another great boxed set! My favorite is Lucy tells the truth, when lucy bets Ricky, Fred and Ethel that she can tell the truth for 24hrs and they laugh and don't think that she can do it. Well Lucy really wants to win the bet, so she has to tell all of her friends what she really thinks of them, including Carolyn Applebee. She almost wins until the end when she is auditioning for a part in a play, and she tells a little fib about speaking another language and has to have knives thrown at her from the guy because she couldn't understand what he was saying. She gets scared and runs to Ricky crying saying that she lied and she'll pay the money, but Ricky laughs it off and says that he will pay the money, and then she gets mad at Ricky for not stopping that guy from throwing knives at her because she could have got hurt. Ricky then explained to Lucy that it is a trick and that the knives come out from the back of the board and that she wasn't really in any kind of danger at all. They all laugh it off and it is a really good episode of "I Love Lucy," another favorite on my list. Anyway all of the boxed sets have really good clarity and they all come with added bonuses including "My Favorite Husband" the radio show, starring Lucille Ball and special deleted scenes, if you choose that from the main menu. The boxed sets are a great value and worth it just for the added bonuses but if you are a fan and love watching "I Love Lucy" over and over again then this is definetely a must for you.

What can I say, a great comedian, a great EBay seller, and a completely satisfied wife made for a win-win-win for me. The 3rd season is one of the best overall.

  Third Season Continues to Strike Comic Gold
Review created: 12/28/06
by: carstairs38-- a member of Epinions and Top Reviewer in Movies

Pros:
31 episodes that are still funny 50+ years later

Cons:
Absolutely none

The third season of I Love Lucy finds the writer and actors producing their best stuff to date. Unlike future years where the setting changes, all 31 of these classic episodes are set in New York and find Cuban Band Leader Ricky (Desi Arnaz) and his wife Lucy (Lucille Ball) getting into and out of all kinds of scraps. Along for the ride are their neighbors, landlords, and best friends, Fred and Ethel Mertz (William Frawley and Vivian Vance). There are many classic episodes in this season. "Lucy and Ethel Buy the Same Dress" and almost ruin their friendship over it when they both wear them to..
