I Love Lucy Complete 6th Season (4-DVD)

I LOVE LUCY debuted in 1951 and quickly set a new standard for situation comedy with its well-crafted plotlines, live tapings, multiple camera angles, and one of the finest ensemble casts in television history. Centered on the domestic life of zany redhead Lucy Ricardo (Lucille Ball) and her Cuban-born husband, Ricky (Lucy's real-life spouse Desi Arnaz), the series also broke the cultural taboos of the whitebread 1950s by featuring an interracial marriage and a female lead who was less than the obedient housewife. Indeed, it was Lucy's neverending quest to muscle in on her husband's show business career--often with the help of her meddlesome next-door neighbors, Fred (William Frawley) and Ethel Mertz (Vivian Vance)--that provided the show its main comic thrust and continues to lend it a timeless appeal. This collection presents all 27 episodes of the series' sixth season.
