I saw just a few seconds of it while channel surfing. I did wonder what was going on.

When it was first on, my Mother never liked it. She said it was silly. I sort of agree with her. I thought Fred, Ethel and Desi were all better than Lucy.

It was watchable but that is about it. I sort of thought it was a spin-off of “The Long Long Trailer”.

Everyone knows the country’s best days are years behind it. The number 1 show was actually made 60 years ago, and the number 2 show is a period piece about business life 50 years ago.

My “something is wrong with this” senses are all red lining on this story. I smell manipulated statistics or apples and oranges comparison.

Who aired the I love lucy? Broadcast or cable?

I think Lucy was/is hilarious. She was an amazing talent.

Limbaugh spent a LOT of time on mad men. Rush spends a LOT of time on a LOT of TV, but I’ll never forget, ever, how he pretended, ridiculously, to have no idea whatsoever who honey boo boo was. Doctor 2 brains made the same observation.

Not me. Jon Hamm is a libtard nut case, that’s why he’s always on Bill Maher’s show.

Mad Men series finale was extended 20 minutes. Booooring. It seemed to drag on and on and on. Draper ends up at a hippy-type commune.

Ha! the grape stomping funny.
I’m actually watching one now, when she tries to sneak cheese on airplane & pretends it’s baby.

I saw Lucille Ball in an old movie and was surprised just how stunning she was when she was young.

The fact that she was a communist did not endear her to me.

I never heard of Mad Men until I heard Rush talking about it today.

I’ve never heard of Mad Men, but I remember loving “I Love Lucy”.

She was not just a comic, she was a remarkable woman.
