    She was a great best friend on and off screen. The show would have bombed if she left. Lucy was very funny but even better next to vivian. 😂

    One note - Vance wasn't that old at the beginning of the series. She was in her late 30s at the time. I loved seeing her as Maxine in the Maxwell House commercials when I was a kid; but to see them now through adult eyes she really had such polished diction when she played a blue collar worker that it wasn't 100% believable!

    I've got such a crush on her warm energy! Lucy used to be my big crush of the two, but now it's Viv- and quite fitting too, since her surname at birth was Jones, which is a variation of the name Joan, and Joan is a VERY special name to me! Just another link between me and Joan- another Godwink!

    I thought was sincerely touched when narration he said, Vivian Vance crossed over instead of (died) I wish could seen more of her films outside Lucy Ball collaborations

    She first met Bill Frawley and loudly called him a 'old coot'. I dont blame him for disliking her.

    • @paulhunter6742
      @paulhunter6742 11 месяцев назад +1

      I have agree with Vivian as William Frawley was old enough to play her father. I didn't care his style because reminds too much of Vaudeville.

      Vivian was younger than Lucy! I can see why she was disappointed at being paired with Frawley.
