She was the perfect clown ❤, and Desi helped with that. In this case he knew she hated sweets. He told the prop guy put honey in that bottle, it won’t hurt her but boy will she react! She was ready to hate it, and she sure did! In Florida when she and Ethel had to carry that tuna from hotel room to hotel room he had the prop guy buy a real tuna at the fish market! Both girls reacted to it! It smelled bad, it was slimy! Desi was brilliant too. In real life he was the funny one, Lucy was not a funny person and didn’t think Lucy Ricardo was funny! She did what she was told and enjoyed the audience responses! She was a great clown!

@@jeffreymartin6369 She was also technically and socially brilliant. It was her idea for the three camera system that's now SOP for all TV sit-coms with live audiences. It was also Lucy who fought for Desi to be her husband on the small screen, as CBS bureaucrats were initially dubious about glorifying a "mixed" marriage! On the other hand, it's a shame that Desi couldn't be as maritally faithful in real life as Ricky Ricardo was on the series.

Lucille was the star of the show, and she made it happen on stage, but Desi was making making magic behind the scenes! Married 10 years he knew she hated sweets! He told the prop guy to put honey in the bottle, and make sure she didn’t know. It won’t hurt her but boy she’ll react! He knew reality was funnier than fiction! She could clown like crazy, I’d never try to take anything away from her because in reality she was a very serious person. She was a taciturn sardonic woman. Her idea of humor was to catch a friend returning from the bathroom for example and say to someone else in the room, “well here she she is tell her to her face! Go on, tell her what you told me!”

Miss Ball was a perfectionist with more self-discipline as an actress than anyone else in her era as well as forthcoming generations. She was a legend in her own time; but not for the sake of ego.... She was continually fine-tuning her talent and potential. Her originality, creativity and talent in this Timeless character of 'Lucy' in this series is "classic"; as well as the 'I Love Lucy' series itself is a Timeless Classic. A fine example of her talent is evidenced in the program that features Harpo Marx 👏. The blending of the two characters is perfect, with impeccable timing. I've never seen such an amazing, compelling example of talent, such as Miss Lucille Ball's in this performance. She is an artist that began as a model, dancer, and movie actress, with much versatility as seen in various movie roles, some early roles of course infused with a distinct humor that is only her own. She truly is an actress that is a "Timeless Classic."
