    A Stunning Re-creation of TV's Famous Couple
    This was well put together. 3 hours wasn't enough. Ms. York made me believe and Danny Pino had Desi's turn of phrase perfectly. It covered Lucy's life in surprising detail considering it was too short.

    Like a trip down memory lane, Lucy and Ricky are a part of our culture then and now. If you allowed the story to take you there, you were in for a rare treat.

    York and Pino did their jobs perfectly.

    I was very impressed with the re-creation of many famous scenes, Buster

    Keaton's involvement with Lucy's life and Lucy's close personal relationships with her family.

    Four Star entertainment!!
