The Lucy Show Lucy and the Lost Star (1962–1968) watch online HD

I have to disagree with the previous poster...this is a typical LUCY SHOW episode, with the usual jokes and such, and several times I did laugh at Lucy's, Viv's or Joan's jokes. Joan is not "in a fog" and she does not "slur" her speech. She appears quite cognizant throughout the show, and Lucy (the perfect hostess as the star) defers to Joan when appropriate. I am not a Crawford fan (I actually think Bette Davis is the better talent), but I find it too sad that Joan Crawford's personal problems in her later years have influenced IMDb posters to make such negative comments about her. She may not have been perfect, and maybe she was a real bitch, but she WAS a star for five decades and she deserves at least a little respect for that!

Terrible sixth season episode of the long-running "The Lucy Show" has Lucy and Viv beset with car trouble and stranded on the roadside; Lucy convinces a grumbling Viv to walk two miles to the nearest house to use the phone (I hope their heels held up!), only to find out it's the home of movie star Joan Crawford. Since La Crawford is having her house redone, there's no furniture downstairs, leading the girls to believe she's fallen on hard times. It's tough deciding which is worse here: the flimsy premise, the second-half featuring the cast (plus Joan!) putting on a musical show for charity, or Crawford's slurring, stupefied performance. The fashion runway costumes (particularly Vivian Vance's coat in the last scene) are far too extravagant for a program like this, and Lucy never gets a funny line--those are all given to Gale Gordon.
