|
|
I just finished watching the 50th anniversary special
on CBS- Thank you for all the hard work and congratulations to you and
Desi for a job well done! I so appreciate when the two of you are
involved if any tributes to your mother and father and their
extraordinary talent! I always know that because of your
involvement it will be entertaining, informative, and top notch-
I've been a huge fan of "I Love Lucy" since I was a child. I just watched the TV special and would like to thank you and Desi, Jr., for doing such a great job on the show. It brought back wonderful memories and made me laugh and cry. Especially poignant was the footage of your and Desi's visit to your mom's childhood home. I've got tears in my eyes right now just thinking about what that trip must have meant to the two of you. Thank you again, and I hope all is well with you and your family and Desi and his family.
I truly enjoyed the "I Love Lucy" special tonight (Nov 11,2001). I also enjoyed about 8 years ago the special you hosted about your mother & father. And I have enjoyed various visits you have made to talk shows & the memories you have shared about them. They were truly an American treasure. Incidentally, my favorite episode was the William Holden episode. Thank you.
I Just finished watching Lucie's and Desi's anniversary show on CBS. They did such a Fantastic job, really very well made, very classy! I loved it very much and I bet Lucie may have another Emmy winning production here! It really is superb, and both Lucie and Desi were terrific in it.
Congratulations to Desi, Lucie, Gary Smith, and
everyone involved in the production of this masterpiece. I can't
begin to count the number of times tears welled in my eyes at the
thought of these people getting this kind of recognition 50 years after
the fact. I tried to watch every one of the Top 10 clips as if I'd
never seen them before, and it worked. I burst out loud laughing
at least two dozen times.
I just watched the I Love Lucy 50th special on CBS,
and was very pleased. I thought it was very well put together, and
was surprised to see so many celebrities on! I was pleased to see
a nice look into Lucy's old house on Lucy Lane, which has been
Kudos to Lucie Arnaz (and Desi, Jr.). Lucie has a real knack for these sorts of documentaries. This special went way beyond my expectations. There were wonderful anecdotes, great guests, fine editing. There was tenderness and laughter mixed all together in a perfect concoction. It brought out a wonderful assortment of laughter and warm feelings, making this a most ideal night of television.
I just watched the 50th anniversary of Lucy. As I was
watching the #1 episode of her with the vitameatavegamin- I kept
thinking that if Gilda Radner had lived- it would have made a
wonderful side by side comedy shot- with Lucy on one side/Gilda on the
other recreating that great episode. I don't even know of anyone
who could possibly had pulled that off better. It was a great
show, and here's to an innocent time in our lives when we were filled
with laughter and we thought the worst was over.
You guys did so good on the 50th anniversary special, Lucie and Desi Jr. I loved it soooo much! you should put it out on VHS and DVD (if it isn't going to be already). You rock! I know it's going to win an emmy! Lucie and Desi Jr. rule! I love ya sooo much! You did great!
What a terrific special! The clips were
beautifully edited, the music was great - it was all good. The
sense of family really permeated the whole thing. The Arnaz brood
should be damn proud - and I for one would like to see Lucie do some
more dancing!
It was an incredible show. The Babalu was great
but I thought it was especially touching when Lucie was giving Desi the
tour of Lucy's homes.. it was so sweet. I can't count the number
of times I cried...
The CBS special was one of the best shows I've seen,
it should get an award. You guys did such a great job, it was so
entertaining. As well, you are both such good looking people, and
talented. I especially enjoyed the singing and drumming, it was
exciting, like you were there with your parents. I am sure they
are smiling down from Heaven at you both.
I just watched the I Love Lucy 50th Anniversary Special and I want to tell you that both you and Desi Jr. did a wonderful job on this show. You know, I have long been a fan of I Love Lucy (since 1988 when I was 11 years old) and of you father, mother, Vivian and Bill. You are a wonderful actress and I loved your duet with Desi and Arturo Sandoval. May your star shine bright forever.
I watched the I Love Lucy 50th Anniversary special last night. You and Desi did one of the greatest shows on CBS. I bet that Lucille ball and Desi Arnaz Sr. were watching. Your parents brought joy to me for so many years. Lucie, I just wanted to thank you for showing everybody the home that your mother grew up in and showing us Jamestown, NY. Thanks Lucie and Desi.
Yesterday, we were watching CBS and came across the 50th Anniversary special of Lucy. We loved it! We saw you and your brother. It was very touching, me and my friend even started crying! Thank you for everything!
I really enjoyed the 50th anniversary special last night on TV. Thank you for putting so much work into it. I really appreciated it, and I'm sure the millions of other I Love Lucy fans appreciated it as well. Thanks so much for all you do!
Loved the Anniversary special last night. I made a pilgrimage to Jamestown last year. Am hoping to make it back again when there is another Lucy Weekend. Hope to see you and Desi there as well. The part with you and Desi visiting your Mom's house was my favorite part of the show.
Seeing the Arnaz talent as they are today was a treat: Desi Jr. and Lucie too, on drums, singing, dancing; doing the duet "Patria" (written by Billy Hinsche of "Ricci, Desi & Billy"). Seeing Lucie dancing more, would be great - and singing more too! Hope she gets her own TV Special. Seeing Desi Jr. in Jamestown for his first time there, made you just want to cry. Also, Great RARE clips (from the I Love Lucy "movie") of Desi Sr. introducing the cast to their audience; that was A+ and reminding us that Desi learned every aspect of the show and gave it the quality we still have today and that he was a talented actor too. It was a great special.
I just wanted to say that the special last night was amazing. The performance that you and Desi gave was excellent and I only wish that I could sing as well as the two of you. Also, I wanted you to know that the fans here in Canada adore your parents and I, for one, can not stop watching reruns of "I Love Lucy". There is not one show that could ever top the "I Love Lucy" show. Take care.
Thank you so much for putting on the "I Love Lucy
50th Anniversary Special" last night on CBS. You both did a
superb job and you should get several Emmys! I especially liked
the part of your visiting Jamestown and where your Mother grew up.
It was very touching and a new insight of why We all Love Lucy.
Also your singing was delightful and a wonderful honor to your Father.
