The complete I Love Lucy series - all 6 seasons - contains all 180 episodes; loaded with hours of special features.
Season 1 Here's how it all began-the classic episodes that started America's long-running love affair with everyone's favorite madcap redhead, Lucille Ball. Plus the rarely seen pilot episode that sold the I Love Lucy series. America just couldn't get enough of this stunning new comedy talent - Lucy as a less-than-poised would-be ballerina in "The Ballet," Lucy battling the world's longest loaf of bread in "Pioneer Women," and Lucy in her greatest performance, as the health tonic-guzzling TV pitchwoman for "Vitameatavegamin" in "Lucy Does A TV Commercial." ("And it's so tasty, too!") Fall in love all over again, with the wild and wacky series that changed TV forever!
Season 2 This hilarious five-disc DVD collection, containing the show's entire second season contains gems such as "Job Switching" - in which Lucy and Ethel do unforgettable battle with a chocolate factory conveyor belt; and "The Operetta" - in which Lucy's money problems bring down the curtain on her role as "Queen Of The Gypsies." This collection also includes the groundbreaking "pregnancy shows," including the touching moment at the Tropicana when Lucy breaks the news to Ricky that they are going to have a baby, and "Lucy Goes To The Hospital"- the record-setting episode that garnered the highest ratings in 1953!
Season 3 Laugh out loud as Lucy and Ethel rip each other's dresses to shreds during their televised duet of Cole Porter's "Friendship." Watch the fireworks when Lucy has to go 24 hours without telling a fib. Follow Lucy as her quest to recover a contest-winning dollar bill lands her in a giant starch vat. Tune in to Lucy and Ethel's unforgettable TV commercial for "Aunt Martha's Old-Fashioned Salad Dressing." Learn golf the way the pros never played it, as Ricky and Fred teach the girls their own unique rules of the game.
Season 4 It's I Love Lucy's fourth season, and it's the best one yet! Ride along with the Ricardos and the Mertzes as they head out to Hollywood to launch Ricky's movie career in this laugh-filled five-disc collection. Lucy runs the gamut - from faux Marilyn Monroe ("Ricky's Movie Offer") to TV-hostess-in-a-potato-sack ("Mr. & Mrs. TV Show"). In Hollywood, our favorite redhead sets fire to her nose ("L.A. at Last"), struggles in her big movie scene and bigger headdress ("Lucy Gets in Pictures"), dangles from a movie star's penthouse balcony ("The Star Upstairs") and even goes one-on-one with one of the Marx Brothers ("Harpo Marx").
Season 5 It's I Love Lucy's fifth hilarious season, as Lucy manages to find trouble in Hollywood, Manhattan, Paris, London, Rome, and everywhere in between. Before leaving Tinseltown, Lucy bags the ultimate souvenir - John Wayne's cement footprints from Grauman's Chinese Theatre! Next, Lucy goes to extremes to catch a luxury ocean liner when it sets sail for Europe with Ricky and the Mertzes aboard - but with Lucy still on the dock! On the Continent, Lucy's madcap escapades include getting thrown in a Parisian jail, modeling a French "designer" potato sack, causing an Alpine avalanche, hitting an accidental jackpot in Monte Carlo, and - in one of TV's funniest scenes ever - soaking up a whole lot of "local color" in an Italian grape-stomping vat!
Season 6 It's I Love Lucy's sixth and final season, and the redhead is up to some of her most hilarious shenanigans. First, Lucy meets Bob Hope at a baseball game - by masquerading as a hot dog vendor, then a tobacco-chomping pitcher. Next, even the great Orson Welles is powerless to stifle Lucy's acting bug when she "assists" him in his magic act. And in one of the funniest TV episodes ever, Lucy learns the hard way why you shouldn't put all your eggs in one basket - or in one blouse!
