Cousin Ernie is funny to me. I do like his character and you can tell Desi likes this guy because when he says something funny watch Desi laughing. I never noticed before but I can't unsee it. Lucy as the wicked city woman is a treat.

Sleeping arrangements

Warning: Spoilers
Funniest thing is Tennessee Ernie Ford sleeping in the roll away like you wouldn't believe!

Ernie is hopelessly naive or at least in a way he is . Despite being annoyed Lucy and Ricky genuinely like Ernie . Yet he's constantly doing things that set their nerves on edge especially for Ricky. The only thing they think will send him away is according to his mother's warning a real life painted up city woman. Ricky is so desperate he is all for Lucy pretending to be one ( in disguise of course) . The problem? It backfires big time he starts chasing Lucy around and will find her if he has to stay there the rest of his born days!

My title, for this show's 2-part program "The Naive Native", Part 1 of 2.

I will also leave a comment in the "Tennessee Ernie Hangs On" episode. (Part 2 to me) This comedy & slang put together is truly humorous, from beginning to end! The show needed something to boost it back up to its "normal" rating of number one! When Tennessee Ernie Ford was picked & he accepted to do the numerous slang terms, "in my dictionary" I phrase them as "Numerous AND Humorous"! In "Tennesssee Ernie Visits", my favorite scenes & quotes are: Scene 1, "Ernie" walking and looking around the doors, then finally whispers in Ricky's ear, as if he was looking for an outhouse, and Ricky told him 'it's by the bedroom'. Ernie pretended to be shocked. That scene got me to create the term, for restroom "The Outhouse, In The House!". I call it by that term quite a bit, when company is here, or I am at someone else's house. The most humorous quotes, to me were, "Ernie" calling Long Island "a Lond Island" & William Frawley aka "Fred Mertz" nicknamed "Cousin Ernie" as "Li'l Abner", referring to Al Capp's comic strip. I like Ford's singing, through out all three episodes, especially when he, "Fred Mertz", "Ethel Mertz", "Ricky Ricardo" and "Lucy Ricardo" sang together as a 5-part quintet, and in the concluding song is trivia to me, that "Lucy" did not sing "off-key", as in all (or almost all other songs she sang!). In Sincerest Honesty. 63x927is58401.
