Lucy gets into trouble again and again and again and again
This second volume of episodes from "The Lucy Show" finds the redhead getting into trouble at every opportunity. First up is "Lucy Gets Trapped" (Episode #134 September 18, 1967), where Lucy pretends to be ill so she can skip work at the bank and attend a huge sale at a department store. However when she gets there she is named the store's 10 Millionth Customer, which means her picture gets into the newspapers where Mr. Mooney ends up seeing it. In "Lucy the Baby Sitter" (#126 January 16, 1967), Lucy is looking for a job where she will be better appreciated after having yet another fight with Mr. Mooney over the quality of her work. At the employment agency they end up sending her to be a babysitter for a family of chimpanzees (The Marquis Chimps). What more do you need to know? "Lucy the Bean Queen" (#113 September 26, 1966), finds Lucy wanting to get new furniture for her apartment but Mr. Mooney will not lend her the money. When Lucy sees an ad that you will get double your money back if Bailey's Baked Beans are not the best baked beans you have ever tasted, she and Mary Jane go around L.A. buying up cases of beans and returning them for double their money. There is only one problem. These ARE the best baked beans Lucy has ever tasted. Still, you have to love any episode that puts Lucy on a forklift. Finally, in "Lucy Meets the Law" (#129 February 13, 1967), a redheaded female jewel thief manages to put the jewels she stole into Lucy's purse. This means Lucy ends up behind bars having to deal with hardened criminals. An interesting quartet of episodes from the fifth season of "The Lucy Show," and while none of them are classics per se, they are all first-rate examples of Lucy's work at this point in her career.
