Favorite "I Love Lucy" Episodes

[grinningghost]

My favorite is the one where Ricky puts Lucy on a schedule and it's on today at 11 on TV Land.

What's your favorite one?

 

[Mishetta]

There are soooooooo many but I think my all time fave was when Lucy & Ethel went to work in the candy shop!

 

[missypie]

The one where they are in California and they see William Holden at the Brown Derby and Lucy spills food on him, then Ricky brings William Holden home to meet Lucy and she has to disguise herself with a wax nose...makes me laugh till I cry every time.

Definitely the one where Lucy is trying to smuggle a big cheese log on an airplane. She has it wrapped up like a baby so that she could bring it on there with her. Half way through the flight, she decided to eat it. Another passenger is wondering what happened to her baby. It is the funniest thing I have ever seen.

in Italy at the bike races, and stomping grapes

 

[MOMTOMOOTOO]

So hard to choose they are all so great, but if I had to pick one, I would be the one where Lucy is out on the ledge in a superhero costume.

The school play! My step-mom is the little girl at the beginning telling the story, and her sister is the little bunny dancer who is not quite right. They were on because of the dance class they were in. My SM said that Lucy was so sweet when they were taping!

I love the school play too!!

But I also love the one when she is in Scotland and has the dream and Ethel and Fred are the 2 headed dragon!

TOO funny!!!

I can NOT pick just one favorite! I have been an avid I Love Lucy fan since I was 8 years old, (see my profile, that was a loooooongggg time ago!), and I own every episode on VHS, including the original pilot and Christmas episode. When my kids were young they used to love watching I Love Lucy. I can still get my DD13 to watch them with me, although sometimes I resort to bribery.. My kids, and husband, laugh at me because I can always relate ANYTHING to an I Love Lucy episode.

A couple of my absolute favorites- Lucy and Graumanns- Lucy and Ethel steal John Wayne's footprints for a souvenir. The Charm School- Lucy and Ethel try to impress Fred and Ricky with make-overs. The three Florida episodes, (especially when Ricky is being pulled up onto the boat after jumping in the water to retrieve his fishing pole and Ethel looks him square in the face and inquires, "Are you wet?" Tennessee Bound- Remember Teensy and Weensy?

Oh, I could go on and on, but I'll shut up now. Oh yeah, I've visited her hometown, Jamestown, NY, twice, and I also have every episode of The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour, and okay, shutting up! One more thing- I Love Lucy rules!

Hands down, it's the episode where Lucy is trying to tell Ricky they're having a baby. When he's singing to her in the club, it just melts my heart.

 

[DopeyRN]

All of the above...and vitameatavegamin.

 

[browneyes]

All of them. But if I have to choose one, it would be the Job Switching epi.

 

[ilovepcot]

For some reason I get a kick out of all the episodes that show her wearing her black pants (seems they were always just above the ankle) and her little black ballerina slippers. Funny thing.....I seem to always have those little black slippers on in the house myself! Wonder where that idea came from??? Wouldn't you just love to have had her as your neighbor? I always dream of finding a friend that moves into my neighborhood just like Lucy. Unfortunately, no one has ever come close and but I keep on dreaming!

 

[TalkisCheap]

I love every one that has been posted so far. My family makes fun of me cause im 'addicted' to I Love Lucy! I'm 13 and i have seen every episode....a million times?! I have recorded them all including all the Lucy-Desi comedy hours, also. Two of my favorites are Madam X, and the one where they make a bet bout who can last the longest without using anything invented after 1900(forget the exact year)

 

[PRINCESS VIJA]

I agree with Barb... the one where Lucy tells him they are pregnant!

 

[Fishbone†]

OH!!! All of them..... I LOVE LUCY!!!

But if I had to pick.....

The one where she gets locked in the freezer...... too funny!
The one where she bets Ricky that she can keep from buying a hat longer than he can keep from losing his temper........... too funny!!
The one where she tells Ricky she's pregnant by requesting "We're having a baby"............ so sweet.
The one where Ricky asks for a raise and Mr. Littlefield lets him go, so Lucy and the Mertzes dress up like several club patrons which leave the club in a huff when they find out Ricky's been let go............ giggle.

Ahhh............. I could go on and on and on

Oh! The one when they're in the train and she keeps pulling the emergency stop............. way funny!!

Okay...... I'm done. )

I almost forgot my 3rd most favorite one...had to post it while i was thinking of it. The one where Lucy, Ethel, and Fred dress up like gang members to seem 'undesirable' to the Conn. homeowner because Lucy doesn't want to move! Oh, such a classic

 

[KingsFanInRI]

I am not a big "Lucy" fan, but I have a favorite episode....

the one with Harpo Marx, where he plays "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" on the harp and then he and Lucy do the mirror scene. What a classic.

 

[JetMom]

Nobody has mentioned my favorite yet ....

Lucy Gets A Paris Gown -- My Mom gave me a Lucy doll for Christmas wearing the famous potato sack dress.

I also love the one where Lucy is on a schedule - especially when they all start throwing the biscuits around the room.

Oh - how about the one when Lucy & Ethel sing "Friendship" and tear the dresses off of each other.

I could go on forever!!!!!

Lucy Rules!!!!

 

[Melora]

Just remembered one I always love...

The early one where Rickys boss (?) is into the occult and Lucy invites him over for dinner and has Ethel pretend to be psychic. I love that Tillie is Mr Littlefield dog!! (Hope I haven't screwed up the plot too much!)
