I
Love Lucy was an immediate smash hit and during its six
years in originals, never ranked lower than third in popularity
among all television programs. The plots, by series creator
and producer Jess Oppenheimer and writers Madelyn Pugh and
Bob Carroll, Jr., were superb, the gags were inventive,
and Lucy's clowning the piece de resistance that took I
Love Lucy beyond the realm of other contemporary comedies.
As wacky as she was, audiences could emphathize with and
adore her.
