I was not yet two years old when "I Love Lucy" first aired and my parents didn't purchase our first television till 56' or 57' when I was six or seven years old.

Lucy (you got some splanin) Tribute to "I Love Lucy":love_heart:
 

When I was a little girl the "I Love Lucy" show came on every Sunday night at 8pm. I loved the show but since my bedtime was 8:15 My Mother would send me up to bed in the middle of the show, I was really enjoying it so I would try to stall, I would say "Mom did I have my milk?" She would say "Yes" then I would ask "Mom did I have my cookie" and she would answer "Yes" in a more angry tone. Before I could ask a third question my Dad would say to my Mom ,Let her finish watching the show. Then she would scream at him and say "Well then you wake her up in the morning for school." I would feel bad she raised her voice at him and I would run up the stairs to my room. I never got to see the end of the show ,but it was better than hearing my Mom holler at my Dad.
 
I enjoyed watching it as a kid.

Now, having learned a few things about the personalities of "Fred" and "Ricky", I see them in quite a different way.

Also, Lucy's crying and whining is now like nails on a chalkboard.
 
I laughed like crazy at the scene where the girls worked in the candy factory as wrappers trying to keep up with what was coming off of the belt.

Yes, it's the same way with me after watching reruns now. I notice now that so many episodes involved Lucy scheming to get to perform at the nightclub. It made for the development of a character that I would not care to know now. I would like Ethel. :shrug:
 
My Mom and I loved the I Love Lucy Show. Dad hated those type of shows, he had a great sense of humor but thought they were silly. I hate reruns but three that I would watch over and over were the candy,vitamin and grape stomping episodes.
 
I haven't watched any old shows in quite awhile but did like most of them.

Sometimes I'll watch an old black and white show just to go back in time a little. Saw some Make Room for Daddy with Danny Thomas and enjoyed that.

I love looking at the styles, the hair, the furniture...those kinds of things. :)
