In 1951, film actress Lucille Ball and her musician husband Desi Arnaz spent $5,000 to produce a TV sitcom pilot about a Cuban-born bandleader named Ricky Ricardo, his zany, starstruck wife Lucy, and their madcap life in a Manhattan apartment. The result was the decade's biggest show and a landmark in TV history that ran until 1957. William Frawley and Vivian Vance co-star as the Ricardos' best friends and neighbors, Fred and Ethel Mertz.

A. at Last," "Lucy Gets in Pictures," "The Fashion Show," "The Dancing Star," "Harpo Marx," "Lucy Visits Grauman's," "Lucy and John Wayne," "Lucy Goes to Scotland," "Lucy's Italian Movie," "Christmas Show," and "Lucy and Superman." 6 3/4 hrs.

I LOVE the Color!
I loved the colorization! For years, I wondered what some of these episodes' colors were. Some may not be the genuine color, but just adding color makes the episode come alive, and I could finally see how bright Luy's red hair was! The decor is also beautifully colored.

Highly recommend
It is really fantastic to see some of the best episodes of I Love Lucy, now colorized. The colorization process is excellent and the colors are extremely vivid; almost like watching in 3-D. Really enjoyable to watch !!!

I Love Color
Watching these colorized versions give new life to shows I've already seen many times. If you want to have fun watching a show you've already seen in black and white, the colorized versions are what you need.

Love colorized show
I absolutely love,love,love the colorized I love Lucy shows on DVD. I've been watching it since I first got married 40 years ago. I remember cracking up at what crazy things she did and what she was going to the next. I even got my daughter and my nieces watching them. I can't wait til they see these. I would often wonder what the color of some of the dresses she and the other women on the show. I found out that that the beautiful gowns she wore on the dancing star and Lucy gets into pictures were pink just like I thought. But the color on these episodes are great. I hope CBS home entertainment do some more,especially seasons they move to the country
