Several years ago when Nick at Nite unveiled the "beautifully restored" episodes, and showed them on weeknights, well, as it should be. This show defies boundaries in its affect on so many aspects of television and our personal lives. Having access to even a segment of an episode is akin to a visit with an old friend or a beloved departed relative. I recall when CBS still had the rights and ILL was shown weekdays at 9:00 am. I used to love to be sick so that I could stay home form school to watch. I agree, how could this timeless treasure be upstaged by MASH, Cheers, Golden Girls, etc.? All good shows, yes, but just that, "good shows." Many times I have sat down for ILL and told myself, "Okay, this time I will watch objectively and stay aware that these characters are fictitious (especially Ms Ball) and ACTORS; not real people" I have not succeeded, the acting and characterizations are just too good. Today is January 1, 2010...how I could go for an ILL marathon. Hopefully a network will realize the value and offer Ill its entitled showing. For now, "nix" to Nick at Nite and TV Land, and a Black Mark to Hallmark.DBnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10862718.post-88650404524509895632009-12-27T17:25:59.061-07:002009-12-27T17:25:59.061-07:00I am very sad and disappointed that Hallmark took ...I am very sad and disappointed that Hallmark took I Love Lucy off the air - She is the queen of comedy and deserves to be honored during the day - every day, morning, noon and night. Who wants to watch 10 episodes of The Golden Girls or Mash? Someone needs to get a clue and get their ratings back up to speed. Until then, I will not watch anything on Hallmark, TV Land or Nick at Night....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10862718.post-89401079015832366102009-09-20T16:22:15.549-07:002009-09-20T16:22:15.549-07:00Thanks "Anonymous" for your comment, but...Thanks "Anonymous" for your comment, but to reiterate from the story above, I Love Lucy is not shown anywhere 'nationally' on TV sets across America. That means no big national broadcast station is showing the program. You may have smaller local channels showing the program but nothing nationally. This is the first time that has ever happened. It's great you can still get it on your Channel in your area, but for other people, even in the New York City area where I live, we do not get the program at any time on any of the cable stations.VRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13877583305982137757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10862718.post-10082730532713092402009-09-18T20:58:39.219-07:002009-09-18T20:58:39.219-07:00Hello, i happened to run into ur blog and this art...Hello, i happened to run into ur blog and this article about i love lucy.
