4.0 out of 5 stars Is Vivian Vance the real star?
In all my years of watching 'I Love Lucy,' I always felt that Ethel (Vivian Vance) was the character who truly made the show delightful. We all love Lucy . . . and her comedic talents are exceptional-- but Vivian Vance just possessed some quality that really made her stand out. (I think she was just more believable, as a character, perhaps).

Anyway, the first...

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't Bother With Poor Quality Public Domain Episodes/Wait for Official Season Releases by CBS/Paramount Home Entertainment
Don't bother with the public domain episodes of "The Lucy Show." You're throwing away your money. The audio and video quality isn't very good. Buy the official season releases of "The Lucy Show." We already have seasons one through three out. Season four should be out sometime in March 2011. You won't believe the difference between the shabby quality of the public domain...

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't Bother With Poor Quality Public Domain Episodes/Wait for Official Season Releases by CBS/Paramount Home Entertainment, December 8, 2010
This review is from: The Lucy Show - Lucy Meets Sheldon Leonard/ Viv Visits Lucy (DVD)
Don't bother with the public domain episodes of "The Lucy Show." You're throwing away your money. The audio and video quality isn't very good. Buy the official season releases of "The Lucy Show." We already have seasons one through three out. Season four should be out sometime in March 2011. You won't believe the difference between the shabby quality of the public domain episodes and the unbelievable quality of the official releases. It's like they were filmed a month ago. In addition you get great bonus features. So stop buying the same 30 episodes. I was fooled twice and decided to wait for the real thing.

4.0 out of 5 stars Is Vivian Vance the real star?, October 14, 2004
This review is from: The Lucy Show - Lucy Meets Sheldon Leonard/ Viv Visits Lucy (DVD)
In all my years of watching 'I Love Lucy,' I always felt that Ethel (Vivian Vance) was the character who truly made the show delightful. We all love Lucy . . . and her comedic talents are exceptional-- but Vivian Vance just possessed some quality that really made her stand out. (I think she was just more believable, as a character, perhaps).

Anyway, the first episode on this DVD was all right-- but when 'Viv visits Lucy' . . . I think this episode provides some of the funniest scenes I've ever seen! A brief summary:

Lucy and Ethel-- whoops, I mean *Viv*-- are enjoying a friendly reunion, in the midst of which it is learned that Viv is worried about the hippie son of one of their friends. This son has allegedly become a real guitar-playing freak (who likes to wear his hair long and a giant watch as an earing). Lucy, naturally, decides that she and Viv ought to diguise themselves as hippies and find out what they can about this fellow.

Their costumes are hilarious and what becomes my all-time favorite scene is when they try to fit in with all the drugged-out hippies at a dance club. Lucy's method of dancing is funny-- but Viv . . . !!! I'm laughing just remembering it! The episode's story is, of course, quite ridiculous-- but the scenes with Viv make it just hilarious fun to watch, IMO.

Definitely worth seeing, if only for that one scene!
