  • Take a tour of the I Love Lucy Apartment in color. This I Love Lucy Tour includes: Lucy and Ricky's kitchen, living room, bedroom, bathroom and even little Ricky's nursery. You'll get a fun tour of their apartment, but also documentary style information and facts about the I Love Lucy set design. The show starred Desi Arnaz, Lucille Ball as Ricky and Lucy, and Vivian Vance and William Frawley as Fred and Ethel Mertz.
    With the recent Being the Ricardos movie and the upcoming Lucy and Desi documentary airing in March 2022, there is renewed interest in all things Desi and Lucy. This is like a documentary of the set - their apartment on the upper east side. We go over every detail, with experts along to give interesting facts, set bloopers and even props.
    If you love classic tv and especially tv homes, if you love design - you'll love this channel. We'll explore their amazing New York City apartment, like you've never seen it before - with ceilings and all 4 walls, as if it were a real life apartment.

    I always assumed that kitchen door led to a closet or small pantry. Years later, when I bought a house built in the 50’s, it had a door just like it in the same location as compared to the entry door. It was a small closet pantry and was very convenient to have. It was a very efficient use of space.

    • @MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane
      @MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane  2 года назад +2

      I thought about that at first too. But even if it was just a standard depth of a coat closet [2 ft] and then you add studs and drywall, you end up with it protruding out about 2'6" into the hallway. If the hallway is 4 ft, that only leaves 18 inches to get around. I love when others get into the details of these homes and try to figure them out.

    • @MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane
      @MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane  2 года назад +1

      @MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane  2 года назад +1

      Sorry, one more question. Was your pantry flush with the wall or did that wall bump out into the kitchen? I'm trying to figure out how there would be depth to the pantry and yet not have it protrude into the hallway. Thanks.

      By today's laws little Ricky's bedroom could not be called a bedroom because you had to go through another room to get to it. That's a no-no in NYC.

      Meee too!👌 love the nooks, crannies, built ins. I don’t live there, but Burbank and Glendale have a lot of houses, apts. like this. I’d actually like to live there JUST because of that reason. I could never convince my other though.🙁 And a lot of the furniture back then was so practical. I actually used to have a drop leaf table that when done using, there were four folding chairs that stored into it when done, a little drawer for your utensils in an (when stored) area that was about 3x18 space. The wings were a great size. When it was set up, it seated 4 easy, 5-6 a bit crowded, but you could do it, a regular size table. I’m SOOO sorry now I passed it on. It was great for sewing, buffets, too lol.

    This was my favorite apartment of the two. However, my favorite living space they inhabited was the hotel suite they stayed in while in Hollywood. There was something so quintessential mid-20th century L.A about it. You spoke of the picture that found its way into several other TV programs. One thing I noticed about Paramount Studios from the late 60's and into the 70's was how a lot of the artwork and furniture from The Brady Bunch made its way into at least two other TV shows: Love American Style, and Mannix. In fact, there is one episode of Love American Style where the head shots of the entire Brady Bunch made an appearance in one scene (I believe the episode was titled, "Love and the Dummies?"). The Brady couch even made an appearance in an episode, and also their curio cabinet in another. I'm sure stuff like that has happened a lot over the years, often escaping our notice. This was so much fun - especially with our two guests!

      Studios repurpose sets furniture all the time. They will reuse a defunct series entire sets verbatim when a new rolls out. The logic behind it I'm guessing would be, If it gets the axe after the first season at least money wasn't wasted on a new set. Most of the pieces of a set look showroom new even though they were acquired years ago.

      @@MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane Hi Marina! Here's something else you may find interesting. I commented before, a while ago, that I used to work at Universal Studios in the 80s as my Day Job when I was a young actor. One thing I had noticed was that they would trash an extraordinary amount of new sets and wood etc once they were done with them! I asked my friend, who worked in a different department and had worked there longer than me, about it and his explanation was very interesting. On the humongous Dumpsters where they trashed the set materials I couldn't help but notice that the company stamped on the trash bins was called Universal Refuse Company.. My friend confirmed that Universal Studios owned the Refuse Company separately and would collect the set materials, recycle them and then the Studio part would claim the sets as a loss come Tax Time! What a Hat Trick that was!! Ahh, good times..

The show is so much funnier than any of the “sophisticated” junk comedies aired today. I wish you could do the Ricardos’ Connecticut house in color-but that might be a real challenge, since I never could figure out the floor plan! But then, you probably could. Thanks again!

    This was a treat. I’ve always loved APT. 3 D. I try to pay attention to the props used. I’ve never seen the asian figurines, or candlesticks or vases with the long prisms hanging down. I have a few of the brown Saks hat boxes the are always visible on the top shelf of the closet. Sometimes Lucy is carrying it in, with the top altered with paper so you can’t read the logo. After many years of searching, I finally found out what company made the tablecloth that Lucy used often, even in their Connecticut home. It was a California linen company called Cala Art or Cala Print. It came in several different colors. They hardly ever come up, so when one popped up on eBay, I made sure I would be the owner. I’ve tried to figure out what the pottery vase that looks like it has a feather on the front of it. Maybe someday.

Oh - and thank you for mentioning the Jamestown, New York Lucy/Desi Museum. I've been there and it's just a world of fun to visit. There's an entire tour of "Lucy" places to visit. Just a hint for travelers through that area - it's less than a day's journey to Indiana, Pennsylvania to see the Jimmy Stewart Museum and 1/2 way between the two cities is Puxatawney where that rascal of a groundhog predicts a longer or shorter winter each year. That is a worthwhile place to also visit.

    Another beautifully rendered tour! Just fabulous! I love the mid century details of the furniture on the show. I love that you found the exact images of the little fairytale characters in little Ricky’s nursery. That set was such a great representation of the “dream home” of middle America at the time. I was having a conversation today about how the concept of the dream home has changed over time. Then it was very functional but not huge in square footage. They had some great details too. Recently nearby my neighborhood in Nashville, Patsy Cline’s “dream home” sold. It was a modest mid century ranch but very comfortable. Nowadays, no country music star would consider that their dream, they would need at minimum of 3000 square feet, a stable for horses, a guest house, and five acres, lol!

I had forgotten about the episode when Lucy and Ethyl went to see the bigger apartment, and did not remember that the former tenant had a grown daughter in what would become the nursery. Here’s a thought - maybe the nursery was a few feet longer, and the daughter could enter the tiny hallway that leads into the bathroom without having to go through her parents’ room??

    I’ve always daydreamed about the floor plans of different tv homes. In the 2nd apartment, when they came back from Europe, little Ricky had grown from a mere toddler to a preschooler. That season he had his own room, entering from a hall. I had always imagined that Ricky got permission from Uncle Fred to close off the door into the nursery by Lucy’s bed, then construct a short hall beginning from the left of Lucy’s chest of drawers, then extending it slightly to lead to little Ricky’s big-boy bedroom door on the right, and somehow connecting it with the bathroom hall. That scenario would allow for the bathroom to remain where it is in the video, I guess. 🤷‍♀️
    You imagined the apartment beautifully.

    Even tho tv home layouts are unrealistic its still fun to wonder about. Ricky Minds the Baby is one of my favorite episodes partly because we get to see more of the apartment with poor Lucy going back and forth (wonder how many steps that would’ve been on a fitness watch 😆) Ricky acting out the story was my favorite part. Thanks for these videos cause layouts was something I always thought about watching the shows growing up

    What’s interesting about these sets is that you get such lovely custom features, like the little alcove for the beds in the bedroom. And the custom Ricky and Lucy embroidery. Such talented people, makes it more homelike. And the table and chairs in the kitchen make it so intimate. And, love the fact that the fireplace is the main feature of the living room- and the TV is next to it. I’m nostalgic for the period !! Will check out your design videos. Thanks Cheers

    I just LOVE your home tours and the information and detail you provide, especially this one, Lucy's apartment. I, too, grew up with 'I Love Lucy" and like you said, it provides a getaway to the past, an escape from the issues we face today in this sometimes crazy world. I love the nooks and crannies in this apartment, the various angles of the walls instead of a perfectly square room. I realize that in reality, it might be difficult in the real world to achieve such an actual building, but I still love it. Thanks so much for all the work you do on your videos.

You know, even though it has been said; that he regrated her divorcing her until the day he died. America was so upset when they divorced. I'm 55 and I'm still upset!! LOL. but really I don't obsess over any actors but these two! I know I'm not alone. I just hope these generation X or whatever generations to come, know how great they were. I STILL LOL to their show and I've seen them over and over! FACT!! They all are so natural. God Bless Them and their families~

  • @Rangerman9404

    I have seen that picture of the set that you showed, I thought it was real, too. What struck me was that I always thought of the club Ricky played at as a remote location, not just a "room" adjacent to the kitchen. As for the reason the producers didn't have faith in the show lasting, that had a lot to do with the racism of the time: they didn't think people would be accepting of them as a couple, with him being Latino and her being white European, but it actually added to just how funny that show was.

I just finished watching the I Love Luch episode: I really appreciate all the homework and thought that you put into these videos. Espeically Lucy. It's like seeing cherished home movies again-for the very first time! THANK YOU!!! -by the way, I was the librarian at the Museum of TV and Radio (now called the Paley center) for eight years.

I’ve always seen this show and so many others in the late 59s and early 60s when our Mom worked and we were home afternoons and all through the summers. I watched reruns of all the old shows (and still do!). Your video tours are amazing! Thank you so much!

    I love your CGI recreations, Marina. What I realized in this video is how much larger the set looks on camera opposed to how it is when In (or on) the set. I worked in theatre for eighteen years and from being on the stage or operating lights and sound from the booth, I realized the same thing. Luckily we had on set photos taken for many of the productions and even comparing them not in person to photos of the set from the audience, it's amazing the perception difference.
