3-0 out of 5 stars [Three and a half stars out of five] Best effort of all the Kung Fu movies. Radames Pera once played on Hawai'i Five-0!
Pear and half brother Keith Carradine both
4-0 out of 5 stars kung fu:the legend begins
this is the one that you see in commercials and in other movies and in clips on the show of the same name.a very influential movie!theres a small kid who goes into kung fu training with an old blind man.then he gets big and goes to america after killing his masters killer.he gets a job in the railroad and runs into problem after problem the whole movie long!kids like it.its better than the karate kid movies and a lot of the newer jackie chan movies although jackie has better too.it beats out anything by chuck norris or van damme or segal.bruce lee does better.you can actualy learn a lot of the basic things about kung fu by listening to the old man talk.the star is david carridine.he does quite well in his role.i liked death race 2000,and the kill bill set better but liked this one better than cannonball.

5-0 out of 5 stars Stands the test of time
Excellent series still stands up for modern viewing. Still a refreshing take on the "Western" as a concept with some wonderful anti-racism statements. Only one clunker episode in the set: "The Tide," which seems more like a Bonanza script than anything else. High-calibre scripts and direction. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Lucy gets a job on Paul Douglas's "Early Bird" TV show
After the 1956-67 season of "I Love Lucy" the cast decided they wanted to try their hand at a hour-long program, which ended up being a series of specials produced periodically over the next couple of years."The Lucy & Desi Comedy Hour" was actually the title of this "show" when the specials were aired as a summer series by CBS during the Sixties.In this 9th installment (Aired April 13, 1959), "Lucy Wants a Career" that will get her out of the house.So she hires Ethel to watch Little Ricky and heads out into the world to seek gainful employment.The twist in this episode is that when Lucy answers an ad to be the "Girl Friday" for Paul Douglas's "Early Bird" television show, she impressed the show's sponsor because she is an everyday housewife.So even though the star of the show was not thrilled at all the things she did to get the other applicants to leave, Lucy actually gets the job.5-0 out of 5 stars Lucy at her all-time best
This Lucy hour long episode is one of the greatest episodes Lucy ever made.Lucy decides to apply for Paul Douglas' morning show as his girl Friday.Paul dislikes her but the producers want her to stay.The results are hilarious.Wait til you see her first day on the job.I was laughing so hard I started to cry.Lucy then gets sad because she doesn't get to see her family that much anymore because of her and Ricky's work hours.Well she thinks that she got to quit her contract, so she takes sleeping pills to sleep well that night.But she can't get out of the contract.Once again, the results are hilarious.BUY THIS VIDEO ASAP!

5-0 out of 5 stars Lucy Is Hilarious

4-0 out of 5 stars The "I Love Lucy" cast sort of makes it to Las Vegas
After six seasons of "I Love Lucy," Lucy and Desi decide to stop doing the classic sitcom but to continue the format in hour-long specials on CBS sponsored by Ford.In this third of the five specials, Ricky is booked at the Sands hotel in Las Vegas, so the Ricardos and Mertzes head east on the train, where they encounter movie star Fred MacMurray.It seems MacMurray is worried about telling his wife, actress June Haver, that he has lost money gambling.Fred Mertz had bought Little Ricky a gag newspaper with a fake headline, so Lucy decides they can do the same thing to help MacMurray out of his jam and come up with one about hunting for uranium.Of course the paper causes a mad stampede for the desert by everyone who wants to find the radioactive mineral.5-0 out of 5 stars ONE OF THE BEST LUCY-DESI COMEDY HOURS
This episode is really a breath of fresh air and very funny; a lot of it was filmed outdoors on location and it's a great change of pace for the usually set-bound quartet we all love. Fred MacMurray plays himself and he's likeable if not hilarious {although he and Lucy have hardly any chemistry together). The desert scene where greed and suspicion take hold is a clever parody of "Treasure of the Sierra Madre". Vivian Vance is notably vivacious in this; it's hard to believe she could be the same mousey Ethel in episodes past;she looked amazingly younger as the series progressed - much to Lucy's dismay (she once told make-up artist Hal King "You're making her look too good!!"

5-0 out of 5 stars Very Very Funny
This is one of the funniest videos in the Lucy Desi Comedy Hour series. After seeing the episode on Nick at Night, I had to buy it. Anyone who loves The Lucy Desi Comedy Hour and I Love Lucy will love this! ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Ida Lupino, Howard Duff and the Ricardos share a cabin
"Lucy's Summer Vacation" (Aired June 8, 1959) was the tenth of fourteen hour-long specials that the "I Love Lucy" cast did after abandoning the half-hour situation comedy format.These periodic specials started off trying to take the Ricardos and Mertzes to exotic locales, but eventually they became more about the guest stars.With this one it is Ida Lupino and Howard Duff, playing themselves, who basically take over for the Mertzes for most of the show.5-0 out of 5 stars One of the Best Episodes of The Lucy Desi Comedy Hour!
One of the best episode of The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour the show that they made after they took the 30 minute I Love Lucy off the air, I thought it was a very good episode and everyone was great including Ida Lupino and Howard Duff! This episode reminds me of the time when I was a little girl and we spent our vacation in a cabin by a lake. This episode is very good and it is just so under-rated!

1-0 out of 5 stars Worst thing Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz did
This edition of "The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour" just plain stinks.The Mertzes are written out after the first scene, and don't come back until the very end, removing two enjoyable characters.Lucy and Ricky aregiven the same cabin as Howard Duff and Ida Lupino, only it takes at least25 painful minutes of unfunny comedy for each couple to realize this. IdaLupino is written like an idiot and she should have refused to do this. Asa huge fan of "I Love Lucy," this was especially difficult towatch.Most scripts, even the weakest, Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz seem tobe able to save. For some reason, this one isn't one of them. Poorcharacter development, an unrealistic portrayal of the guest stars, and itreally comes out to be a one-joke show anyway.Get this only to complete acollection. This episode just plain stinks. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars IT'S LUCY! WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT?
This is truly a classic. It seems funny that Lucy Ricardo has two good friends that look like Ann Sothern. In this show Lucy shares a cruise with her good friend Suzie McNamara, {11/6/57} played by Ann Sothern, and meets her later to be husband Ricky... and meets Fred and Ethel Mertzfor the first time. Fred with hair is truly the moment in history that true tv classic lovers dream of. Later, on the the Ann Sothern show, {10/5/59}, Lucy Ricardo visits Katie O'Connor, {played again by Ann}, on "The Ann Sothern Show", one of my favorites. The only thing I'm saying is...when it comes to great fun, true classics, wholesome entertainment, a great feeling of the 50's and 60's television... get this show, watch it again and again...and remember, for those who were lucky to live in those days...remember when tv itself was young and worth watching....

4-0 out of 5 stars At long last, the story of how Lucy and Ricky met
The seventh season of the "I Love Lucy" format consisted of five longer programs called "The Ford Lucille Ball-Desi Arnaz Show." For the first episode (November 6, 1957), gossip columnist Hedda Hopper interviews the Ricardos and Mertzes in Connecticut as they tell the story of how Lucy and Ricky first met. It seems young Lucy McGillicuddy and her friend Suzy McNamara (Ann Sothern playing the character from her TV series "Private Secretary") were on a cruise to Havana on the same boat as young Ricky Ricardo and his friend Carlos (Cesar Romero), the Mertzes and singer Rudy Vallee. The episode sounds better than it really is, mainly because Vallee is such a boring guest star and the writers are having such trouble, although certainly an effort is made to increase production values and make this something special. In fact, this first show ended up being 75 minutes long and Desi Arnaz ended up asking "The U.S. Steel Hour" to cut its show to 45 minutes.

5-0 out of 5 stars Very funny, as usual
Of course you know Lucille Ball would never let you down. This video is hilarious, with Lucy getting into all sorts of trouble, and meeting Ricky. I'd recommend this to anyone. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Little Ricky wants a horse, so, of course, Lucy gets him one
"Lucy Wins a Racehorse" (February 3, 1958), was the fourth episode of "The Ford Lucille Ball-Desi Arnaz Show," which continued the "I Love Lucy" characters in an hour-long setting. Little Ricky wants a horse and his mom enters a contest being sponsored by a breakfast food company. Lucy wins a horse named Whirling Jet (played by "Tony" the stunt horse) and everything looks good until Harry James, who is playing with Ricky down at Club Babalu, points out how expensive it is to keep a horse. So Lucy, Ethel and Betty Grable decide to run Whirling Jet in harness races to earn the money for his upkeep. The only problem is that since the horse is in love with Lucy, she is the only one who can be his driver. A lot of this show was shot on location at the Santa Anita race track and the attempt to combine traditional movie making with the "I Love Lucy" format did not mesh terribly well. They kept trying to come up with ambitious shows to justify the hour-long format but they never seem to quite work.

5-0 out of 5 stars hilarious!!
this video is hilarious!! Of course Lucy makes it that way, with her being pulled by the horse and other funny antics. It's one of her best works

4-0 out of 5 stars Grable and James saddle up for some laughs with Lucy

5-0 out of 5 stars Brilliant comedy featuring Tallulah Bankhead in the lead
The original plan was for Bette Davis to play the lead in this episode, but it is hard to imagine anyone doing a better job than Tallulah Bankhead did in creating such a wonderful comedy which was by far the best of all the Lucy-Desi series. She kept the cast of the series on edge by pretending to be drunk in the rehearsals, but in the final take, all her lines came off like clockwork, which explains the tension that is rather evident among the cast members in the episode.
5-0 out of 5 stars Lucy and Desi take on the legendary Tallulah Bankehad
Originally written for Bette Davis, "The Celebrity Next Door" is infamous for Lucy and Desi's encounter with Tallulah Bankhead OFF screen, but it is also a very funny hour of television comedy.The story has the temperamental actress moving in next door to the Ricardos, so Lucy and Ethel begin spying on her through binoculars.When Tallulah comes over to use the phone, Lucy embarrasses herself and ends up inviting the star to a disastrous dinner where Fred and Ethel pretend to be the butler and maid.Things then get progressively worse, and funnier: Lucy accidentally sprays paint all over Tallulah who then gets Lucy to sit in a painted chair as the war escalates.5-0 out of 5 stars THE BEST OF THE LUCY-DESI HOUR SHOWS
This is a very funny hour. Lucy was terribly concerned about Bankhead's performance, as she was "taking nips" during rehearsals.(Bankhead purposely threw her co-stars off during rehearsal rather ingeniously): when the cameras rolled, she was letter perfect and brilliant in her timing and delivery. You can actually sense Lucy is a little nervous and her performance is a bit uneasy. Vivian comes off best as Ethel Mae - she's terrific and she actually looks younger than Lucy does. Desi looks tired and his performance is strained; the Arnaz marriage was really over by this time and there is some evidence of this in the performances - they seem a little tired and forced. Vivian has great chemistry with Bankhead (when she enthusiastically praises Bankhead and her plays), Lucy remarks "Ethel Mae, you are boring Miss Bankhead"! - to which Tallulah retorts "When Miss Bankhead is BORED, Miss Bankhead will let you KNOW!!" ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Mr. Television and Lucy: what more do you need to know?
For the eleventh hour-long special in the "Lucy & Desi" series the "I Love Lucy" cast got Mr. Television himself, Milton Berle.The result is a rare chance to see the two biggest stars of the first decade of network television together.The set up is that Lucy is trying to get Berle to emcee a benefit show for the local PTA, but the big television star does not have time because he has a whole lot of other headaches, including a big deadline for finishing his book.So Lucy offers Berle the use of the Ricardo Connecticut home where he can work on his book without interruption and get it finished on schedule, at which point he will gladly appear before the PTA.Surprisingly enough it is not Lucy who makes this plan go wrong, but Fred who tells Ricky all about the stranger who has been in his house all day while he is gone.Ricky hurries home and Berle tries to escape--wait for it--in drag, dressed up as "Mildred."Read more

3-0 out of 5 stars Crossing the border is never easy with Lucy Ricardo
In "Lucy Goes to Mexico" (Aired: October 6, 1958), the sixth episode of "The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour," The Ricardos and the Mertzes are in San Diego, where Ricky is rehearsing with Maurice Chevalier (you can never have too many foreign accents) for a show they will be doing for the Navy on the aircraft carrier, the U.S.S. "Yorktown."Meanwhile, Lucy and Ethel head for Tijuana, bent on finding bargains and souvenirs galore, with Fred tagging along to try and head off disaster.Surprisingly things go okay, until they try crossing the border back to the U.S. and the Customs officer (Charles Lane) discovers a young Mexican boy (Alan Costello) in the trunk of the car: he wants to see the aircraft carrier Senora Ricardo has told him about.The good news is that Ricky and Chevalier show up to bail everybody out of jail.The bad news is that since Chevalier is a French citizen, he cannot get back into the United States (pretend this makes sense and remember the comic value of people speaking English, Spanish and French at high speed at the same time).Obviously, since the U.S. Customs can spot a grown man in a trunk as easily as a small boy, there is only one solution to this problem, and that is for Lucy to end up fighting a bull in a bull ring as Max the matador.1-0 out of 5 stars Worst episode of the LUCY DESI-COMEDY HOUR!
By the time this episode aired in 1958, "Lucy-mania" was at a fever pitch.Scripts were being tailored to accompany the slew of celebrity guest stars as opposed to the well crafted character driven stories from earlier seasons.This episode is such an example of how scripts were rushed out with no thought given to any semblance of reality-based storytelling.The episode begins with the Ricardos and the Mertzes in San Diego as part of a U.S.O. tour with celebrity guest star Maurice Chevalier.Lucy and the Mertzes go shopping in Mexico and wind up in trouble with U.S. Customs after a little Mexican boy stows away in the trunk of their car.They are bailed out of trouble by Ricky, only to have the same thing happen again on another shopping venture, but with Maurice Chevalier in the trunk this time.They are soon put in jail, where Lucy makes a daring jail break thanks to the help of the little boy.She then dresses up like a matador to elude the Mexican Police, only to end up in an arena fighting a bull that she falsely assumes is a friendly bull that she's nicknamed "Max".
5-0 out of 5 stars VERY funny
this show is very funny. Lucy has trouble with the officials in Mexico, when she goes there shopping. They're accused as smugglers!!! See how she tries to get back to the United States. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Fernando Makes This Episode A Winner
"The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour" was, in essence, an hour-long version of "I Love Lucy". There were 13 of these "jumbo", one-hour Lucy episodes produced over a three-year period (1957 to 1960), with the episode on this VHS videotape being one of the funnier entries, in this writer's opinion.
5-0 out of 5 stars One of the best!
I watched reruns of I Love Lucy all the time when I was a little girl and I never knew until Nick at nite started showing it that Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz made another show with their Lucy and Ricky characters, they only made a few episodes of their hour long specials but this is one of the best! Lucy wants to go on a much needed vacation alone with Ricky but he cancels with the excuse of being to busy at work so she gets mad and has her feelinhgs hurt and goes on the sky trip anyway with Ethel and they meet a handsome sky instructor played by Fernando Lamas and Lucy decides to use him to make Ricky jealous. It is not difficult to see why so many women had crushes on Fernando Lamas he definitely looked like he was a great looking guy.

4-0 out of 5 stars Lucy & Ethel head to Sun Valley for fun in the ice and snow
"Lucy Goes to Sun Valley" was the last of the five hour-long specials Lucy and Desi did in the "I Love Lucy" format during 1957-58.Lucy and Ricky have planned a romantic vacation to Sun Valley, Idaho, but Ricky has to cancel because he has to do something for television.Lucy is upset and goes off with Ethel to Idaho, leaving the boys behind to stew.Once they get to the lodge they enjoy the activities and then the girls meet movie star Fernando Lamas.Of course Lucy enlists Fernando's help in making Ricky jealous and, of course, Ricky and Fred show up to surprise the girls.Filmed on location, the chief treat of "Lucy Goes to Sun Valley" is watching the queen of comedy doing most of her own stunts, especially the stuff ice skating.And, of course, Fernando looks marvelous.Not quite as good as Lucy & Desi #2, the infamous one with Tallulah Bankhead, but close. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars All you need to know: Lucille Ball and Red Skelton
Recommending the 8th special in "The Lucy & Desi Show" series is really easy because it has both Red and the Redhead, being Red Skelton and Lucille Ball respectively.Even better, Lucy joins Red in a Freddie the Freeloader skit.Not since Harpo Marx showed up on "I Love Lucy" have we had such a great opportunity to smile at the anticipation of how delightful any scene putting these two comic geniuses together would have to be, and in this regard we are not at all disappointed.5-0 out of 5 stars The only Lucy episode that made me laugh out loud
This is a very clever episode of I Love Lucy. She can actually sing in this one. I loved the hammock scene, but the "dinner" scene, where everything is being mimed, is the best part. It deserves every star Igave it.

5-0 out of 5 stars The best Lucy episode ever!
I think that Lucy goes to Alaska is truly the funniest episode.Lucy travels to Alaska only to find problems after problems; like always, Lucy always finds a way to make every situation funny.Wait till you get to thehammock scene! ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars The Williams family takes on the Ricardos and Mertzes
Do you remember what television show inherited the "I Love Lucy" timeslot on Monday nights at 9:00 EST? It was "Make Room for Daddy" starring Danny Thomas, who never guest starred on "I Love Lucy" because the two shows were sponsored by rival cigarette commercials (remember, until the Quiz Show scandal television shows had a single sponsor). It was not until December 1, 1958 that Danny Thomas and the rest of the "Make Room for Daddy" cast were worked into the seventh special of "The Lucille Ball-Desi Arnaz Show" (which was called "The Luci & Desi Show" when these specials were aired on CBS as summer series from 1962-1967). Most of these specials (which aired several times throughout the year) featured the Ricardos and Mertzes at exotic locations, but for this one the fun stays close to home.
5-0 out of 5 stars Hilarious! Hilarious! Hilarious!
This is one of the best Lucy-Desi specials ever!There is definantly chemistry between Lucy and Danny.Trouble begins when Ricky loans out the house to Danny for several months, while he is making a movie.All iswell, until the movie is canceled.Of course, this leads to manydisasters, which could only happen to Lucy.Loads of fun for the wholefamily! ...
