MacShadowsBall's "Lucy" Thread

[MacShadowsBall]

So as some of you know, I'm a big I Love Lucy and in general a Lucille Ball fan. She was an excellent comedienne and often referred to as the Queen of Comedy. She along with her husband, bandleader-turned-producer Desi Arnaz created the groundbreaking I Love Lucy television series in 1951, which laid down the basic foundation for what the television sitcom would be for decades to come.

Much like Fleetwood Mac and the Rumours album, Lucille Ball is known for much more that just the I Love Lucy show. She starred in several movies before and after her "Lucy" fame, along with 2 more TV sitcoms until 1974!

So I thought each week or so I would share some of my favorite Lucille Ball works of art!
