    My late wife was such a Lucy nut, she knew every line from all the episodes. I have so much of her memorabilia that she had and even though my wife has been gone 9 yrs I can't part with it. I even said while watching this video, Gloria this one is for you. She would of wanted to buy everything in that gift shop.

    OMG, visiting the Lucy-Desi Museum is at the very top of my bucket list!! Like other women you mentioned, I too consider Lucille Ball my favorite Comedienne of all time. I’m so glad you took us here, Jordan-thank you. It was great seeing all the many costumes and the (recreated) props I’m so familiar with!

    Wow, so great to see the Lucy-Desi Museum. I may never get there, Jordan, so I am happy to see it this way. Just fantastic! This place is worth its weight in gold! For people who don't know, you can find many of the shirts showed in the video at the Lucy-Desi museum online. Every time I find a shirt at their website, it's sold out. I love that "Don't make me use my umpire voice" shirt, so I'm on the waiting list. The Bob Hope episode where they sing Nobody Loves the Ump is one of my favorites. Seems like such an underrated episode.

    Lucy was the biggest star we ever had around here. When John Wayne or Bill Holden to name a few were on the show they had Lucy as star struck. In reality it was the Hollywood Stars who were star struck. Lucy paved the way not only for Mary Tyler Moore , Carol Burnett and so on, Lucy also broke through the door and owned and ran a major studio. When Lucy was on "What's My Line" the panelist and audience knew they had Hollywood royalty in the building. Lucy was that big of a star.

    Thank you Jordan! for a fun and thorough look into the museums and Jamestown! You looked like you had a blast. I am a huge Lucy fan. In fact I was just there in August. My last visit to Jamestown was 10 years ago. I had to see the new Comedy Museum. I am so grateful I was able to go to the big Lucy conventions in 2000 and 2001 in Burbank. I got to meet all 4 writers of ILL, chauffeur, hairdresser, guest stars on her shows and friends ( Edie Adams, Carole Cook, Teensy and Weensy, Sheila McCrea and many more) book authors, Lucie Arnaz, Fred Ball, cousin Cleo and more. It was a dream! 🤩💝

    The museum did a wonderful job and it sounded like there were alot of people there, which is nice that so many people are interested in I Love Lucy. I'll have to drive down to see it next summer. I hope Lucy, Desi, Vivian and Bill can see this. Lucy would have put up with Desi's womanizing if he had been discreet about it, but he wasn't and Lucy didn't want to look like a fool, so she divorced Desi. Lucy loved Desi up until the day she died.

    Fun fact: William Frawley and Vivian Vance could never get along off camera, but you would never know it by seeing them work together as a TV husband and wife in the show. It's a testament of how good they were at acting. So, props to them as well. I love the replica of the apartments it's like a time capsule. Thanks for the tour I enjoyed watching it. This was such a groundbreaking show

    Was lucky to do this tour and stay in Jamestown this time last year; really loved everything about Lucy and Ricky that we were able to see in the town and especially the costumes at the museum (chick-chicka-boom, lol). The National Comedy Center in Jamestown is also well worth a visit and has some great memorabilia on display from numerous world-famous comedians, too (Bob Hope, Three Stooges, Groucho Marx, more Lucy stuff, Seinfeld, Betty White etc). Jamestown is also midway between Erie and Buffalo, so there is a lot to do in the larger region .We also took a 3-hour trip down to Indiana, PA, to see Jimmy Stewart's hometown and museum - well worth the visit if you get the chance. Thanks Jordan - fun to hear your thoughts and impressions about the museum.

    My all time favorite episode had Lucy on stage singing a song, while Fred Mertz walked across the stage, carrying a plant. Then he comes back across the other way, and the plant was bigger. He keeps crossing behind her, with a cheesy smile, and a bigger plant until he finally goes by carrying a TREE!!
