Happy Birthday Lucille Ball gone but not forgotten
And there were the episodes when she was pregnant. Who can ever forget the episode when Ricky, Ethel and Fred are practicing for when Lucy is ready to go to hospital. The timing of the comedy routine is perfection. Goodness knows they must have practice it a million times and it paid off. That episode when they have to call the doctor, get a cab and so on is probably one of the funniest 30 minutes of television.
But then again all of her shows were funny. Thank you Lucy for giving us something we can treasure even in year 2011. Your children and grandchildren and probably great grandchildren should be proud of the work you and Desi did.
