  7. I Love Lucy • Lucille filmed this show with her husband, Desi Arnaz. • They thought that to keep the marriage together they should have a project, so the started “I Love Lucy.”

  9. “I Love Lucy” Awards • The show got 5 Emmys. • And over 200 awards • And respect from everyone

  10. “I Love Lucy” Gets a Child In January of 1953, Lucille made everyone stare in awe as she gave birth to her son, who on the show name was “Little Ricky.” Over 144 million viewers watch as Lucille give birth to her son.

  11. After 179 episodes of “I Love Lucy,” Lucille and Desi decided to call it quits. They quit to save their marriage. After they all said goodbye to this show, they started to make a new show called The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour.“ This show didn’t need a lot because of the reputation of “I Love Lucy.” “I Love Lucy” Goes Bye Bye

  16. Her Death • Lucille Ball died at age 77. • She had to go through open heart surgery. • Afterwards she got a ruptured aorta and died. • She died on April 26, 1989.

  17. If She Never Lived • If she never lived, I think that a great TV show and movies would not be as good as they were with Lucille in them. Her great sounds that we will always love would never been heard, like her famous crying sound. Last but not least, her great acting skills would never been introduced.
