5/10
Paging Fred and Ethel
5 December 2022
Warning: Spoilers
The show simply doesn't work without them. The first season hadn't fixed on the formula yet . This episode had more matchmaking by Lucy and Ricky overreacts to it . This is similar to Young Fans . An elderly neighbor wants to attract the grocery man but he thinks it's Lucy interested in him. He takes a shine to her. The funniest scene is Lucy serving dinner to the grocery man and try and dissuade him. She acts like a bad housekeeper ( which he likes things tidy) pretends to have children ( which he can't stand ) and serves a lousy dinner ( which he also can't stand obviously!) . This is well done but the show isn't as good without Ethel and Fred .
