For More LUCY head on over to EVERYTHING LUCY at everythinglucy.youns.com

Who could resist Ann Sothern and Lucille Ball? Thank you for posting this.

I fell in love with Ann Southern when I was a little boy in the 50's watching these shows. She was my first blonde!

Ann Sothern is so beautiful. I am watching her Maisie movies today which I had never heard of. They're wonderful. She's wonderful in it.

Ann had the most wonderful smile !

She's so pretty. I used to love her show. Wish I could find them all. Thanks for sharing this, Vic!

Wow, this show just takes off when Lucy shows up. Love seeing her play a vamp, going way over the top. She just lights up the screen.

I love these old sitcoms. Thanks!!!!!!

Two favorite comedians. Thank you for posting.

I loved the Ann Sothern Show. Watched the reruns as child. She seemed so sophisticated to me. I wanted to be like her.

How fascinating to see Lucy Ricardo on another show, in another context, with perhaps different writers. So many other dimensions come out. They are both brilliant and perfectly suited to each other.

THIS was a VERY unique show. Lucy had matured quite well then.

I really love Lucy her and Ann were great together.

Ann Sothern Show, Barbara Stanwyck Show, Loretta Young Show, Jane Wyman Show, Judy Garland Show...

This is the first time I've seen The Ann Southern Show. I saw her in an episode of The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour. The other show I saw her in was an episode of The Lucy Show. I never knew she had her own show.

This is What Talent Is

Can't beat the shows from long ago. Thank you Mr. Ritchey for posting and bring back pleasant memories. Las Vegas, NV August 8, 2021

I remember watching this with my mother back in the late 60's.

This has that Desilu stamp of high quality and polished production.

I loved this show when I was a kid. I had a crush on her boss.

I just loved Ann Southern she was a great actress and very pretty lady

Thanks for uploading this video, the show brings back good memories!!

This show is actually really hilarious 😆

Co labs the way to go. I did not look at this program much @ 8 years old but its great to get into it now. Thanks for posting c];-D

Lucy also played the friend of Ann Sothern’s earlier character, Susie MacNamara, on the series, “Private Secretary”, and the first episode of “The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour”.

She was also the voice of the mother in My Mother the Car.

I loved this show when I was a kid. Thought an Northern was so pretty.....and she was.!

- - - - - - - This episode is a rare treat, because we get to see Lucille Ball as guest star, playing the character of Lucy Ricardo. It’s noteworthy that Ann Sothern guest starred in an episode of “I Love Lucy.” This show was filmed by Desilu®. Although Desi Arnaz was credited as Executive Producer, “The Ann Sothern Show” was not a Desilu production. It was, however, produced in association with Desilu.

just love it, love it to death,Thank you for sharing this

Loved Ann Southern. She was great in the movies and her series of Maisy movies during WWII were fun! Off course when Viv left the "Lucy Show" Ann replaced her as the countess.

Bless your heart ! Thank you ! I loved this show

Thanks so much for posting this!!

The conversation between Ann Southern and Lucile Ricardo was sounding like ppl will meet after Corona ends!!! I was meaning to invite you for the last five years😂😁🤣

I saw that show at the age of 12. It was entertaining. It was already off the network before I discovered the series.

I love those old shows. They were better than the junk on today. You didn't have to worry about what they said and did.

Wow you got a lot thumbs up is awesome my friends

"...two kids and a beagle. _Beautiful_ beagle!"

Oh my goodness I never new this existed love it . Thank you sooooo much

Thanks for the information, Vic. Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Wow! I still love it!

Recorded on late June/early July 1995 (during Nick at Nite's 10th Anniversary celebration week). See 12:16 for screen bug.

I used to look at this as a kid

I never heard of this show, 👌🌟🌟🌟

I remember watching Susie and I loved her. As an "only" child, TV was my friend... I am TRULY a child of the '50s! Later, Susie came on after school, along with reruns of I Love Lucy. It is so vivid in my mind: American Bandstand and the Mickey Mouse Club after school, then later, I Love Lucy and Susie. I also remember seeing a royal wedding, it must have been Princess Margaret's. When I was home sick, I'd watch the Tennessee Ernie Ford Show and Lucy ( she was ALWAYS on, like Law and Order is now! haha).I also loved The Honeymooners and Amos and Andy. And the commercials! I remember big bags of dancing potato chips (Buckeye potato chips,Buckeye potato chips get 'em at your grocer todayyyyyy! haha) And dancing packs of cigarettes! Even in selling ciggies, they used SEX, because SEX SELLS! Hey, remember the Hit Parade? And My parents liked Midwestern Hayride for the dancing ( could have been regional) yes, my parents were Black hillbillies! hahaha We watched Gunsmoke, Have Gun Will Travel, Wanted Dead or Alive and Dragnet as a family. Also Sid Caesar and Milton "Uncle Milty" Berle. Those were the days my friend... I thought they'd never end. But they did OH BROTHER did they END!

Shades of "Lucy and Ann get drunk" scene from "The Lucy Show, Lucy and the Countess".

1959 and wasn't going to get married just because that was what was expected of her. Talk about way ahead of her time!!!

I love all the old "Maisie" movies.MGM should have made much better use of her talents

Awesome

I never seen that show before but that's good and funny I've seen her in private secretary though.

Keep mas episodios de Lucille Ball and Ann Sothern, please.

Ann also appeared in an episode of I Love Lucy

That really did express how unhappy Lucy was in her marriage to Desi at that time! They would divorce not too long after this episode (well, the following year, but close enough). ;)

Lucy looks like Barbara Billingsly in the episode :-)

With the late Betty White taken from us, I just wanted to see some her contemporaries. Love Lucy, Ann and Eve Arden. In the 30s Ann was quite the Glamour Girl and Fashionista.

The hotel room appears to be a redress of the Ricardo apartment

Ann Sothern and Lucy were good friends, personally and professionally. Ann's first series was Private Secretary that did well in the ratings. But she clashed with producer Jack Chertok and quit that show.

these two repeated this same skit on The Lucy & Desi Comedy hour and on The Lucy Show during the third season.

Remind me of my sister

Ricky was Cuban, and spoke Spanish

Beautiful women back in the day. !!

Ann's name was really Harriet Lake, and I thought there's absolutely nothing wrong with that name on a billboard or marquis. But nothing succeeds like success... she knew what she was doing.

And Southern was a stunning woman. Don't really remember these shows. Great to see this one with Lucy. Wasn't Ann Southern The voice of the mother speaking through the car on my mother the car?

This episode reminds me of how unfair it is that the word bachelor (a man who's never been married) sounds cool, but the word spinster (a woman who's never been married) sounds pathetic.

Ann Sothern and Ann Tyrell equals Lucille Ball and Vivian Vance .

Lucy said Ricky was a Latin, I don't think that's correct. I never saw this show before, did it do good? I love being able to go back in time, even 1 half an hour, at a time, it's still a nice little trip to take. ThankYou.

Ah for the times when women dressed in good taste -

Keep this on KZfaq, please!

Lucy’s got some splaining to do!

Wonder why they had to edit out the famous Desilu animated script logo at the end? I thought Viacom owned all Desilu content syndication rights. Guess there are exceptions...

Damn enough sleeping pills for Lucy to sleep until the 23rd century 😄😄🤣🤣😂😂

Ricky ricardo

I make it 550 👍

The original cross over

This man is Lucy's real cousin in real life that she's pretending to flirt with

Oh my god she ruffied Lucy!!!! She mixed sleeping pills with booze holy cow!

Spinster implies a much older woman who has never married. Perhaps Bachelorette would have been more appropriate in this case.

Aren't they cousins in real life and she's playing a part of flirting with her own cousin on tv

Where's Fred & Ethel?

The canned laughter is sickening...

The plot is irritating. Two women spending an entire episode of two jealous women drinking from the same saucer of cream. Insulting.

Is she playing the Countess Here? I don’t get it.
