I'd guess their screen time on the show was about the same amount. As for Aunt Bee, you probably only had 20 percent chance of working with her on any given day. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

A good friend of mine knew Don Knotts because his grandfather lived in the same apartment building in or near Beverly Hills. He said Knotts was the nicest guy you could ever hope to meet. They often knocked on his door and he happily let them in and regaled them with Hollywood stories. I got the impression he was as kind as his character on the AG show, but not as stupid.

Andy says he was the straight man for everybody on the show. But any comic will tell you, a good straight man is 80% of any act. Lewis said it about Martin, Costello said it about Abbot. Don Knotts said it about Andy. Their timing has to be impeccable, and Andy's was flawless. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25010 | Things I learned about I Love Lucy. She was continually on the air in a sitcom on CBS from 1951-1974. I had no idea, I never watched any of her later shows. Vivian Vance and Bill Frawley, Fred & Ethyl on I Love Lucy, hated each others guts. Never spoke to each other outside of the script. He was such a jerk and had been kicked off so many movie sets, that Dezi gave him a warning when he hired him, behave or you're done. Vivian Vance had worked with him before and wanted nothing to do with him. When he finally died years later her comment was: "Hooray, break out the champagne." If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I remember the names Here's Lucy and the Lucy Show. But I really didn't think she was very funny and never watched. What's ironic is, she was very serious in real life and not funny at all. Her daughter says she ran their home like a drill instructor and never joked at all.. Jerry Lewis was the same way, except not only was he not funny, he was an egotistical asshole. Never thought he was funny either. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
