Day 33- I love Lucy is a family affair

Prompt- I Love Lucy

As a baby boomer I grew up on I LOVE LUCY. We would sit in front of the only TV in the house, straighten the antenna and plop down for a front row view.
From ages 6-10 I enjoyed watching the reruns. Lucy grew older and made the Lucy Show but it never measured up in hilarity like her shows with Ricky, Fred and Ethel.

Of course when my 5 children reached the ages of 6-10 they delighted in the those same shows. They didn't seemed to notice they were black and white and certainly didn't have to fiddle with an antenna.

Now some of my 10 grandchildren are between 6-10. Some think her shows are funny others think they are boring. One grandson even asked "Oma was the world only black and white in those days?"
