I sincerely appreciate all the interesting and informative responses (generously) provided! I guess it was the time for everyone to move on to new frontiers and greener pastures in their respective careers. William Frawley would (almost immediately) secure a regular role on the MY THREE...

Well, this is most definitely a DVD set that is difficult to not to like especially with the (welcome) inclusion of the complete version of "Lucy Takes a Cruise to Havana" (06/11/1957) something that many skeptics cast a shadow of doubt about for so long...which fortunately prove to be invalid...

Well, at least some things in life can go right on occasion. Some of the information (or misinformation) that were being reported in this discussion thread was proving to be a real nightmare...to say the least! That should (also) mean that the the other 12 LUCY-DESI COMEDY HOUR segments...

I'm sorry but I can't answer either Chad's or Paul's inquiries but there (surely) must be someone here who can. All I can hope is that my I LOVE LUCY seasonal box sets were purchased at a time when all these defective disc problems had long been resolved. One aspect of the hour long...

Well I wouldn't say that anyone in this discussion thread has gotten particularly out-of-line here...at least no more than usual! It's just that the news coming out of a certain other "informed" discussion forum hasn't exactly been the most encouraging you have to admit. Fans fully expect...

Yeah, I went back and checked out the earlier message posts in this discussion thread. Oh well, you can't win them all! At least Paramount-CBS Television should have been able to provide all 13 of the LUCY-DESI COMEDY HOUR segments in their original 50 minute running times. I don't blame...

This discussion thread has taken on a bit of a negative tone mainly because of the (justifiably) disappointing prospect that the video source elements provided will be taken from the subpar condensed (later) tv syndication versions...a sentiment that I bitterly feel myself! But read what is...

Yeah, it sure is disappointing news but I'm really not surprised. It seems that Paramount is simply marketing the selfsame video transfers that were previously released on VHS. The powers-that-be probably don't want to invest the time and expense to fully restore the lengthier version of...

I certainly don't have to mention this to the informed participants of this discussion thread but the first 5 LUCY-DESI hour long presentations were originally aired as infrequent tv specials throughout the 1957-58 television season on CBS. The remaining 8 hour long segments were originally...

Having access to rare material from (vintage) films and tv series that has generally not been previously made available is one of the exciting aspects of DVD collecting to be sure. However it remains to be seen whether the original full length (60 - 65 minutes?) version of "Lucy Takes a...

This is certainly good news...but not really so unexpected considering the (immense) popularity of the classic I LOVE LUCY (CBS 1951-57) tv series. However, as originally broadcast the first LUCY-DESI COMEDY HOUR (CBS 1957-60) special "Lucy Takes a Cruise to Havana" (06/11/1957) actually...
