If I were to just make a suggestion about this game or any other it could take quite some time to wait until the person who correctly got the answer to post his reply. If they were to go on vacation, or get sick, or a cruise then we are left to wait until they return.
Why not first come first serve as they say. If someone gets the answer then, lets say, anyone can start up the game again. Just a suggestion.
One of the most re-runned (?) B&W TV series of all time - But I liked other episodes more.
Another one of Lucy Ricardo's half-baked plans to get into Show Business. She pretended to be sick to get Ricky to agree to let her on the show but Ricky finds out she's faking. He hires a fake doctor to treat the fake ilness. a rare tropical disease. Ricky also rigged up a green lightbulb over where Lucy was laying to make it appear she had turned green. The Quack diagnosis is golbloots from the hind legs of the booshoo bird, you have to remove your zorch to fix it and if it gets too bad you turn green ... and you can never trummle again....EVER!
Needless to say,... NO. I have no idea what the episode title or number is I think it was on Nick at Night years ago before TV Land existed
I can't honestly say the light bulb was green,... it was a B&W show
In this thread, you don't need the episode title, just the name of the show. I think WW will probably give it to you. (Luille Ball had a few shows, but only one that featured Desi (Ricky) as well, if I recall correctly.)

Let's see... Lucy Ricardo, Ricky, yeah, close enough.
You needed to just name the series, the show, and that's
specific enough. (Only one show had Lucy RICARDO, and had Ricky,
more or less.)
BTW, like the rest of "Name That TV Show", I actually quoted a few different
episodes. I shall identify them.
Oh, and yes, it's your turn now. "Wikiquote" will help if you're
absolutely stumped for ideas.
" 'El Breako the Leaso'?"
Lucy and Ricky wanted to move to Connecticut, but the Mertzes wouldn't let them out of
their lease. So they became very unpleasant tenants.
Culminating in Lucy recommending Ricky's band rehearse in the living room.
When Fred and Ethel were guaranteed to be home, Lucy recommended they play
that old Cuban folk song, "El Breako the Leaso." According to her, that's the
name of the Mexican Hat Dance. By the end of the song, the Mertzes were hit with
falling plaster.
"Introducing Rhea, the Medium.
Well done, Medium Rhea!"
Lucy was superstitious. So was a prospective client of Ricky's.
So they dressed up Ethel to pretend to call up a deceased loved one for him,
Tilly. Then he asked for his deceased wife.
Lucy faked the voice for Tilly, and Fred faked the Mrs.
He was especially convinced because that's exactly what Tilly would have
sounded like, IF SHE COULD TALK, she was his former Cocker Spaniel!
That was also the episode where Lucy and that client were both into
numerology.
"I got the golbloots from a booshoo bird?!"
"We may have to remove her Zorch."
Or just half of it. After all, half a Zorch is better than none.
Yes, this episode was correctly identified and described.
The one flaw was something nobody ever caught....
Ethel saw Lucy as green under the green light bulb-
but should have seen everything else was green ALSO and known
something was up!
"How can you sell meat so cheap?"
"I'm glad you asked that. We rope, we brand, we butcher. We do everything but eat it for you."
They bought a big freezer, then decided to buy meat in bulk.
They knew "a side of ham" was a certain size (half a pig),
so they figured "a side of beef" was about the same size (no, it's half a COW!),
and Lucy and Ethel ordered a side of beef EACH (about 1 cow's worth of meat!)
They tried to sell some of it off to customers at a local butcher's shop,
and Lucy had to explain why it was cheap.
(Actually, they DID save a lot of money buying in bulk. Too bad they couldn't
keep that much frozen...)
"What do you know about rice?"
"Well, I had it thrown at me on one of the darkest days in my life."
The boys and the girls changed roles to see who had it tougher.
Lucy and Ethel went to work (remember the chocolate scene?)
and Ricky and Fred cooked dinner-chicken and rice.
Ricky asked this question when they decided what to cook.
"It's going to be called "Bitter Grapes." I wonder what part they want me for."
"Oh, you're probably going to be one of the bunch."
They were visiting Europe. At the stop in Italy, a director wanted to cast
Lucy for a small role in his new movie, "Bitter Grapes."
So she went to a local vineyard where they still stomp grapes to learn how.
(This scene should come back to you!)
When she returned, she was all covered in grape-juice stains from getting in a
fight in the vat. The director explained the name was a METAPHOR and the movie
wasn't about the vineyards. He had wanted her to play the role of a tourist,
but he couldn't count on her getting all the stains off her skin-
so he cast Ethel!
That's all of them. I hope that brought back a funny memory somewhere.
Well crap, I couldn't find anything for the show I wanted to do except one or two measley quotes. I'll pass. The show I wanted was "My Favorite Martian"
When I get back to Adare in June I'll play properly - sorry.

I don't think other people have been checking in.
The Jack Bauer reference means this is "24". (Which I've never watched.)

Usually people will say "I'll be out of town, so anyone can take my turn"
or something along those lines.
In this particular case, if you're saying you want to take the next turn,
go ahead, you can take mine.
(If you don't post, I'll post eventually.)

Oh sorry, I didn't know it was, as I never named the show. I didn't know which of Lucy's shows it was, and never "named it"
I'll go to the University's library and get one of their archived TV shows for some quotes this afternoon

Movies are a little easier, since IMDB tends to have a page of
