I know we all love Lucy and her washing machine trade show. However,My favorite was Vitameatavegeamin. I watched it for the first time back in 1973 when The Price is Right had a night time version. On that particular TPIR,a woman, nmamed Tricia Garcia, won a complete FRIGIDAIRE kitchen in Poppy Red.I was excited and happy for her and just after it went off,I Love Lucy came on. I was audio taping TPIR and fell asleep just as I love Lucy was coming on. When I woke up,she was begining her script with the Vitameatavegeamin and I laughed so damned hard,tears came down my face and it got worse as the act got better! I kept the audio tape and listended to it for years to come.It also had a recording of a Frigidaire washer from the laundromat doing its 18 minute cycle.My second favorite was the episode called "Job Switching" where the husbands stayed home to do housework and the ladies went out to work at a chocolate factory.Between Lucy getting melted chocalate rubbed all over her face,Rickey was slipping and falling onto the floor while whiping up the mess consisting of cooked rice all over the floor! It actualy ruined the 1952 Westinghouse Electric 40 inch Range that they rigged to have rice pumped up to from underneath using a toilet plunger. It was replaced with a 36 inch Roper gas stove afterwards untill they repaired or replaced the W'House model.My third favorite was the washing machine episode.I will always love Lucy and may be going to Jamestown New York again this coming August to her birthday party bash!!

What exactly was the name of the machine that Fred and Ethel bought off Ricky and Lucy?....... funny though, Lucy never had a washer in her kitchen until this episode, used to be a fridge behind the back door, and now they sold only the washer and replaced it with a a washer and dryer in the same spot....oh the things we notice... I think we have about every episode on DVD, now I'm gonna have to dig thru and find this one, and watch again and roll on the floor all over again...lol but if my machine jumped like that, and threw clothes at me, I'm getting out of there! |

You're a smart cookie. That Handy Dandy was a Westinghouse canister in disguise. And you might recall that in order to accommodate a sponsor, Lucy, lamenting to Ethel that she had to return the cleaner said "it does work very well." An earlier episode shows Lucy vacuuming with a Hoover upright while the cleaning tools lean against the couch in a box that proudly says HOOVER. Westinghouse was pissed when they saw that. ah, how fondly I remember the Twin-Turbine Dynaflow in my 1962 Buick Electra... |
