This review is from: I Love Lucy Best of Vol 1 (VHS Tape)
In this decade, every episode of "I Love Lucy" will be celebrating its 50th Anniversary. Every episode is still funny as funny as it was when they first aired. The shows are good. The shows are wholesome. They are healing and warm and will make you feel good. Buy them on VHS and DVD today.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best of Lucy Volume 1, Feb 12 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: I Love Lucy Best of Vol 1 (VHS Tape)
This tape is a great with 5 of the top 10 episodes.

In Lucy Does a Commercial, laugh your self silly as Lucy asks if you "pop out at parties" and "are unpoopular".

In Lucy's Italian Movie, see Lucy soak up the local "blue" color.

In Lucy Does the Tango, The chicken business gets the best of the fantastic foursome. Wait until the finih of the dance.

In The Freezer, learn how big 2 sides of beef really is and see Lucy the Ice Queen.

In Harpo Marx see the talents of lots of stars drop by to visit Lucy and Ethal's friend Caroline while Lucy does "other things".Then see the real Harpo Marx and "Lucy Marx" mirror each other.

5.0 out of 5 stars Vitameatavegamin, Grape Stomping, Harpo Marx and more!, Oct 16 2001

(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (HALL OF FAME)   
This review is from: I Love Lucy Best of Vol 1 (VHS Tape)
Volume 1 of the "Best of 'I Love Lucy'" starts off with the classic "Lucy Does a TV Commercial" (Episode #30, May 5, 1952), Ricky is set to host a TV variety show and Lucy wants to do a live commercial for (all together now) Vitameatavegamin. Although she fails to win Ricky's support after staging a mock show inside their television set, Lucy arranges to get the gig anyhow. She starts off great, but the problem is that Vitameatavegamin contains 23% alcohol and with each rehearsal Lucy gets progressively drunker and funnier. Lucille Ball considered this the best bit, and one of the hardest, she ever did. Next we have the wonderful grape vat scene from "Lucy's Italian Movie" (Episode #150, April 16, 1956). The Ricardos are in Europe when an Italian movie producer tells Lucy that he wants her in his new film, "Grapola Pungente." Finding out the title translates as "bitter grapes," Lucy takes this literally and heads for the nearest vineyard where she has a memorable encounter with Teresa Tirelli stomping grapes in a vat. So right off the start, you have TWO of the THREE funniest Lucy routines (and the Candy Factory sketch is on Volume 2)!

The other three episodes might not all be classics, but they are still very, very funny. "Lucy Does the Tango" (Episode #173, March 11, 1957), finds the Ricardos and Mertzes investing in 200 laying hens. All you need to do is hear the situation and you know that Lucy is going to end up with end up with egg on her face. Okay, egg on everything. In "The Freezer" (Episode #29, April 28, 1952), Lucy and Ethel buy a new walk-in freezer. But when they grossly overestimate its capacity, they are suddenly in the meat business. Of course, as soon as you see that walk-in freezer you know Lucy is going to get locked in it. Finally, we have Lucy's legendary encounter with "Harpo Marx" (Episode #125, May 9, 1955), which showcases Lucille Ball's physical comedy in a great scene with the beloved silent Marx Brother. The mirror sequence between the two was apparently a pain to shoot (and reshoot), but worth the effort just to see the two famous "redheads" go at it.
