I Love Lucy/Funny: Difference between revisions

* Possibly one of the single funniest moments on live-action television was from the very end of the show's run. They moved to a farm during this series. This particular episode they decided to try to raise chickens. The chickens weren't maturing fast enough to suit Ricky, so Lucy and Ethel began buying eggs to plant into the chicken's nests. When Ricky came home early they hid the eggs by stuffing them into Lucy's blouse. Ricky then insisted Lucy practice a tango routine with him that the two of them needed to do later that week. The end result was an egg-soaked Lucy and a live audience that laughed for over a minute and a half. It was considered a record holder for years, and may still be one.

** Don't forget the part where Fred slams the door on Ethel's backside, crushing all the eggs in her back pockets. That sent this troper into such paroxysms of laughter that she had trouble breathing for a good five minutes.
