That dog and some of those people are dead.
ChooseCarefully
I loved that show.
beansofthunder
Darling, can I pick you up?
callmedarlingdarling
You may. :)

Wait a sec, Ricky was Cuban. Was he white enough to pass or did their relationship get hate back in the day? Or did redheads not count?
RosaParx
Look at Dezi's face in the 2nd to last frame like "Look Lucy! How cute is this shit about to be?"
REDfohawk
That dog is dead now :(
dontcallmeplath
The man who played Little Ricky owned the ballet studio I went to as a kid. I grew up in MS. Flipping small world.
dominaeleonora
I thought Desi Arnaz Jr. played little Ricky.

When I see animals on old shows, all I think is "that dog/cat/horse/rabbit is dead now." Sometimes I think I intentionally depress myself.
khaleesimarie
Desi used to beat Lucy relentlessly. He was a drunk.
HerpaDerpMapleSerp
fuck yeah! puppy love
motherfuckinmoonmoon
Too bad that dude used to beat the living shit out of Lucy. I guess we can pretend it was OK b/c everyone did at the time.
bluesparrowmarie
awwww the feels!!
Gr33nJ3llyB3an
I love Lucy SO much. RIP
ArtemisShanks
They hated each other in real life.

I love this show. *Gir voice*

IAmAGlitteryUnicornOnTheInside
I feel as though I will jump on my SO and piggy back ride them across the threshold.
ANADOESNTSHAREFOOD
It's her birthday today! :)
BunnySando
and mine too!
Pinoniemi
Happy Birthday!
KeekUras
I do this with my SO all the time. Usually it's because she's drunk.
ImTheGoddamnBatwoman
If I remember correctly, they did most of the scenes in one take - including the famous conveyor belt candy factory one.
FlickTigger
The toast launch is my favorite.
wolflegend9
I liked the episode when Lucy gets drunk on cold medicine.

That's my favorite too! So perfect!

Growing up as a child of immigrants, I can begin to describe what it meant to have a latino lead actor to idolize on TV.
DoctorWatchamacallit
its also interesting because Lucy was basically the brains behind it but technically had to put power in her husband because 50s.
TheHappyCanadian
funfact: I'm related to Eric Estrada by blood (grandmother's cousin's grandson)
DoctorWatchamacallit
i'm related to the highest ranking officer (major general) to die during the entire US Civil war. also descended from King somerled.
TheHappyCanadian
neat.jpg
DoctorWatchamacallit
its not remotely latino, but I bring it up to show that sometimes you never know what cool people you are related to.
SonOfTheShire
That kid should pay close attention to the fact nobody carried him over the threshold.
Courtzo

ShereeAnderson
True fact: that little kiss at the end was not in the script.
TheGreatVindaloovianEmpire
Truer fact: that dog will be dead by now.
Sakoura
I hate you
PupperPup
Why.... WHY MUST YOU RUIN MY HAPPINESS?
LoadedPotatoSkins
you must be fun in public
katiokins
Last time Ricky and Lucy were on Imgur, I went on a binge read/research. Although interesting, some of the magic was lost unfortunately.
chandlersthirdnipple
I also would like this better if I didn't know the backstory to this television fairy tale .
Hokie5
dat little kiss at da end :)
imnotthedoctor
Aw:) that dog has been dead for probably 50 years now
9GagSentMeHere
He said "I love you too!" *lick!

Woah, spoiler much;

WindrunnerTheMovie
Well I was only born like 59 years ago!
thebrownknightrises

I miss when television shows weren't all based on fake reality
iamthediscofapper
Fakality
InappropriateElsa
yikes--desi was a raging alcoholic, and abusive, Lucy was bipolar and suffered from depressive stages--not really like this : (
BDSMBlooddoll
Actually this was, considering their real life relationship wasn't that great :/ Sadly.
jvjanisse
Those two had one of the worst marriages ever.
Nineteenletterslong
*unscripted fake reality
itsawerewolfbarmitzvah
Have you never heard of the 50s? Do you know what was happening then?
DoctorWatchamacallit
I find it kind of funny that America tends to remember this decade solely for the life portrayed in sitcoms completely forgetting all the 1)
DoctorWatchamacallit
3) of north korea and cuba, the beginning of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, CIA orchestrated regime changes, and lobotomies
DoctorWatchamacallit
2) racism, sexism, communism paranoia, constant threat of nuclear war, parents going insane over comic books and elvis, MKULTRA, the rise
imredheaded
I think some people are missing your joke about the darkness behind the show that we all want to ignore.
bufferkiller
I missed it.
bufferkiller
TV is better now than it has ever been.
parallaxis
This is probably the best time for American TV dramas ever.
Candymostdandy
Luckily we have some pretty fucking good scripted shows these days to make up for the soul-crushing reality shows.
Airscape
tyrant and the strain
uninquisitor
Do people do this anymore? I hope they do. I'm gonna do this when I buy my first home with an SO.
CNNnews
FUCK!!!! I JUST BOUGHT A HOUSE AND COMPLETELY FORGOT ABOUT THIS!!!! DAMMIT OP!!! i needed you a few weeks ago!!
AnnieOminous
I just bought my first house, and now I wish I had someone who loved me to carry me over the threshold.
Momof2needsabreak
I've never had that, maybe someday I'll get treated to it.
defcon275
Did it to my wife after we got our first apartment. She rewards me for that often :)
jackwhitesotherotherotherband
I did, we were already living together so it wasn't a new house but it was the first time crossing the threshold as husband and wife.
TheAtomicTangerine
I did to my wife when we got home from our wedding. I almost tripped on her dress, but we did it and it was worth it.
FestiveFerret
We didn't because we had to spend the first hour of home ownership shoveling snow to clear a path to the house and we were too tired.
epicor
I did.
mynameisnotalice
As a fat woman, I really hope, my bf doesn't try it.
MrsWhitekeys
My husband wouldn't. It made me sad :-(
CARDBOARDish
I'm holding you to this. :)
azurepenguin
do people still use the "word" SO?
IdeletedmyoldaccountandIneedanewonetoupvotethings
"an SO"

I am, when I get a girlfriend... let me rephrase: IF I get a girlfriend*
ClassyBirch
A* SO
Lemonlilly
Married 9 years. Lived in 4 homes together. He's carried me across every one of those thresholds! Even at 7 months preggo
fordprefectstowel
awwwwwwwwww
Lemonlilly
Ps. Yes. I have the best husband ever
Superkroot
Rub it in, why dont you!
GrumpySecretary
Been together 20 years, married almost 15 and my hubby has done exactly the same at every new house.
skolyr
My ex-loved this show and scene, so I would do this all the time into random rooms
JasperSirGalahad
Crap!!!! I totally forgot to do this.
Harumochi7
Do it now!!!!
uninquisitor
surprise them! Go up behind them next time they walk in to the door.
JasperSirGalahad
We've been in the house 4 years now, so probably a little late, but next house.
TheBlackShakes
Anniversary?
strangelyaddicting
It's never to late for romance dude... trust me, she'll love it.
Edyr
Yeah, none of that bullshit, @BurghRunner
DonkeyKongsLongShlongInABongIsWrong
making enough money to buy a home AND getting a SO. you're not superman, dude.
impaulsible
Move to the boonies...
kmikl
Hey... Superman never made any money saving the world from Solomon Grundy. http://youtu.be/ihUIPlLw2ZE
djbarbe
It's a lot easier to have enough money to buy a house if you're married....
Harmonex
It's a lot easier to get married if you have a house...
djbarbe
I think most people don't own their first house until they are married.
Harmonex
/shrug. People are attracted to security. If you own a home, you're more attractive. Same goes for people with steady jobs.
relevenceisinthemindofthebeholder
i cant do it aaalll on myyyy owwwwn

Oh I know. I'm no superman. Dooooooooodooooooooooooooooooo I'm no superman

"That's backwards. It's been bothering me for years."
baneofthewalrus
i fucking loved that. i hated it being backwards cause the rest of the show was so accurate.
firsttimescientist
This is what I was thinking too! hahah. we are all fucked
MissRenegadeRabbit
My parents are in their 60s and just bought a new home. My dad carried my mom over the threshold. :)
olyrachel
My husband and I didn't do this, mainly because I get too nervous that I'm too heavy to be picked up, but I wish we had.
hoofbeatsandsnowflakes
I'm afraid of that too, one of the reason I'm trying so hard to lose weight is because I want my boyfriend to comfortably pick me up
SuckAnElf
You should've carried him, haha. We did that in out wedding photos.
olyrachel
That would've been hilarious! Sadly (for me), he is a very strong, thick man. I'm strong, but not that strong, lol.

Step #1 Find a SO
FaceOfBeaux
It's one of my main dreams for when I get a new house.
jsktrogdor
Make sure you do it viking style. Light a fire somewhere, grab an axe and carry her over your shoulder.
FaceOfBeaux
Well since I'm the girl in the relationship, it would be hard to carry myself. But I like the Viking idea :)
uninquisitor
and also scream "PREPARED TO BE PILLAGED!"
jsktrogdor
Nonono,
You "pillage" land and plunder. You *"RAVAGE" bodices and potentially goats if pickings are slim.
FerYerHealthYaDingus
My husband did this when we got our first apartment together.
giraffytaffy
Mine too!
ooshwiggity
I punched my SO when he tried. I don't know why we're still together...
kevlarkate
That's healthy.
Yoshiru
My wife went in first with the agent while I was still signing paper work... lots of tiny things messed up in our marriage. :(
Yoshiru
I know it's not life or death... but I really wanted to do it
