Origin of I Love Lucy:
I Love Lucy
was an American television sitcom starring Lucille Ball, Desi Arnaz, Vivian Vance, and William Frawley.
The black-and-white series originally ran from October 15, 1951, to May 6, 1957, on CBS. After the series ended in 1957,
however, a modified version continued for three more seasons with 13 one-hour specials, running from 1957 to 1960,
known first as
The Lucille Ball-Desi Arnaz Show
and later in reruns as
The Lucy–Desi Comedy Hour
.
The show, which
was the first scripted television program to be shot on 35 mm film in front of a studio audience, won five Emmy Awards
and received numerous nominations. Another award that the show won was the coveted George Foster Peabody Award
for "recognition of distinguished achievement in television." In 2012 it was voted the
'Best TV Show of All Time' in a survey conducted by ABC News and People Magazine.
I Love Lucy
was the most watched show in the United States in four of its six seasons, and was the first to end its run
at the top of the Nielsen ratings (an accomplishment later matched by
The Andy Griffith Show
and
Seinfeld
).
The show is still syndicated in dozens of languages across the world, and remains popular, with an
American audience of 40 million each year. A colorized version of its Christmas episode attracted
more than eight million viewers when CBS aired it in prime time in 2013 – 62 years after the show premiered.
