​National I Love Lucy Day — 15 October

Who loves Lucy? We all do on National I Love Lucy Day every October 15. Consider that at this very minute, somewhere in the world, Lucy and Ricky are arguing in 44 countries. Imagine Ricky declaring to Lucy, “You’ve got some ‘splainin’ to do” in French, Spanish, German, or Japanese. Today, we recall a simpler time when the family gathered around one (we repeat one) rabbit-eared, black and white TV set with only three channels. CBS was the only channel to watch on Monday nights at 9PM. So throw on your pj’s and bunny slippers to walk down memory lane.
