We start at the end of a glorious career! Is it all as bad as we were led to believe!? Can we still love Lucy, even in 1986!?
In an article entitled: Lucy, Coming To Life By Tom Shales... we read, "Behind huge thick glasses and a blur of pink lipstick, and under a head of hair that's now a mutant orange, there's still a Lucy there somewhere. A wacky redhead, a compulsive cutup, a housewife who longs to be in show business, a chorus line cutie, an aspiring saxophonist, a grape stomper, a candy packer, a Vitameatavegamin girl."
"She's not a shopper. She's a worker. She's been working for more than half a century, through movies and radio and television and now, at 75, she's the boss lady again. The living legend wants to do a bit more living. And so "Life With Lucy" takes its place in the lineage after "I Love Lucy," "Here's Lucy" and "The Lucy Show."
