  1. "Ricky" is a 1983 song by American parody artist "Weird Al" Yankovic, duetting with voice actress #TressMacNeille. It is a parody of the 1982 song "#Mickey" by #ToniBasil, which itself is a cover of #MikeChapman and #NickyChinn's "Kitty" recorded by #Racey. The song focuses on #LucyAndRickyRicardo in 1950's #sitcom #ILoveLucy, and their general discussions and hobbies within the show. "Ricky" was one of the last two tracks added to "Weird Al" Yankovic.

  2. "Strawberry Sensation"
    Teableau for 03/15/26

    A friend sent me this magazine. She's one of two friends with this "secondhand obsession" wherein they don't share my Lucy mania but will get excited on my behalf. ❤️

    I practically grew up in this apartment, which, if it really existed, would be in the middle of the East River.

  5. Ricky’s mother is played by Mexican actress and singer Margarita Cabazos AKA Mary Emery. Despite not being Cuban, she was hired because she looked A LOT like Desi Arnaz’s actual mother (seen on right)

  6. Desi Arnaz and Lucille Ball were married for 20yrs, had 2 children and successfully ran television studio together. A letter by Desi read at Lucy’s Kennedy Center Honors ceremony held just days after his passing famously ended with “‘I Love Lucy” was never just a title” (youtu.be/vNBWBO1svBk?si=5aPyJZ)

  7. @MatthewTitus88 yeah, I found that weird as well since I think you could still go to Cuba until the early 1960s

  8. RE: Fred’s reference: John Bunny was a comedic stage actor and vaudeville comedian who was a popular in the early Vitagraph silent comedies

  9. Little Ricky was played by actor and musician Richard Thibodeaux. The show and the promotional trail would mean that he spent years playing Little Ricky- to the point that he’d become close, lifelong friends with Lucy & Desi’s actual kids (pictured here w/ Desi Arnaz Jr.)

  10. I know they had a lot going on but I would be pretty happy if we’d gotten a Lucy & Desi as glamorous married crime solving team a la Nick & Norah Charles

  11. Mr. Benjamin is played by Frank Nelson, who’s most famous for his appearance as a smarmy customer service dude saying “YEEEES??” In various things but most notably “The Jack benny Show”. Also, he would appear on “I Love Lucy” 11 times as various characters
