I'm reading Lucy's book now and sure enough, when Desi was asked what he did to change (after they reconcile in 1944,) he said he now sleeps with the windows open, at night, because Lucy likes it that way. Sorry but as Bob Hope said, I can't understand what Lucy saw in Gary...
That closing scene is pretty bawdy for the day, but it shows how much had changed in the sexual revolution by 1965. I think it would have been unacceptable just 10 years earlier. The series started in 1952, and it still "feels" very 50's 13 years later, but that closing is very 60's. "Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice" were just a few years away.
The whole time I was watching the Olympic gold medalists, the Marine just kept intriguing me. I kept thinking I knew who he was, but couldn't place him until he was introduced - Billy Mills. It was the uniform I guess, and I'd seen him in the 1964 Olympics, on the cover of Sports Illustrated, Olympics Hall of Fame ceremony, etc. He and Jim Ryun were heroes to this young boy. Love seeing these old shows - keep'em coming!!
That bit about Brando @4:30 was thin ice but I bet no one in the audience picked up on it and the panel probably didn’t til after. His publicist worked overtime trying to keep a lid on his goings-on. But Brando made no effort to hide that side of his life. He genuinely didn’t care, which drove his wives away. Women thought they could “change” him but that was never going to happen.

That was WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!
"Is he a heavy?"(Marlon Brando)--not back then but oh, yes, he was very heavy in the future!
Aww Lucy and Gary's kiss at the end is so cute ;)

She's the 1965 National Easter Seal Chairwoman and I started a year later in 1966. Her daughter Lucy Arnez continues in her mother's tradition.
She said she wasn't a millionaire. I don't believe it. Lol
When Lucy died she was worth over 40 million dollars. (that does not include the worth of her properties - she had 3)
Billy Mills check him out and his amazing victory ..he is only American to ever win the event. He is a native American with a very inspiring story.
"Every once in a while she'll say 'goodnight Gary' and then walk into a we
A wall*" HAHA PRICELESS
Boiled dinner is good
Billy Mills is Native American
it's cute how steve calls jayne "jayney bird"
Billy Mills was a famous athlete in the running community.

Lucy is not Lucy Ricardo.
She was already Lucy Carmichael here.
Steve Allen gets on my nerves!
