That's a wrap! Lucy and Desi had much to celebrate at this wrap party held at the end of the first season of 'I Love Lucy'. They had just made television history by becoming the first show to be seen in over 10,000,000 homes (an estimated 30,000,000 viewers)—even surpassing the viewership of "Mr. Television" himself, Milton Berle. All of that hard work came with a fair amount of stress. It was at the end of this season that Lucy was told by her doctor that she was nearing exhaustion and needed to take a break before resuming work on the second season. "I got so nervous and keyed up I went to a psychiatrist, but she only saw me for three weeks. Then she told me there was nothing psychologically wrong with me, I was just wore out from having a baby and a television show at the same time."—Lucy as quoted in the book, 'Desilu, The Story of Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz'. #lucilleball #desiarnaz #jessoppenheimer #thatsawrap #wrapparty #miltonberle #psychiatrist #exhaustion #anniversary #71stanniversary #ilovelucy #waynelvslcy https://www.instagram.com/p/CjiglreL2Jq/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Happy 'I Love Lucy' Day!! With Desi's great mind for business matters, fantastic writers and the chemistry of all four principal players combined, 'I Love Lucy' quickly became a television powerhouse after it first aired on October 15, 1951. But, Lucille was the star after all... "The entire project rode on the radiant talent of that woman. The Lucille Ball of the 1950's was a simply incredible, stunning performer. In every sense she was a star. Unexpected qualities appeared out of nowhere. Little human, ordinary, recognizable values. Inflections that were exactly the way your sister or your mother or the lady bus driver used to sound. She was everywoman."—Jess Oppenheimer #ilovelucy #lucilleball #desiarnaz #vivianvance #williamfrawley #ilovelucyday #anniversary #jessoppenheimer #talent #chemistry #classictelevision #televisionhistory #ensemblecast #sitcoms #pioneers #1950s #happy70th #happyanniversary #70thanniversary #everywoman https://www.instagram.com/p/CVDRal-F38r/?utm_medium=tumblr

Lucy with her writers in 1948. 'Lucy would say, "This script doesn't work at all" when she meant one scene needed fixing, or would ask crossly, "Don't you have a better joke than that?" We felt like telling her we had written a much funnier joke but had sold it to Sid Caesar.'—Madelyn Pugh Davis, Laughing With Lucy. #lucilleball #madelynpughdavis #bobcarrolljr #jessoppenheimer #writers #myfavoritehusband #notfunny #funny #sidcaesar #oldtimeradio #fixthis https://www.instagram.com/p/CC_0gNkn-tL/?igshid=dv612sqct4z8
