The sixth and final season of I Love Lucy finds new laughs in some old formulas while also expanding the hugely popular show's horizons with a change of scene. Things get off to a familiar start when Lucy Ricardo (Lucille Ball) gets in the middle of husband Ricky's business--in this case, disguising herself as a hot dog salesman at Yankee Stadium in order to get near Bob Hope. Hope, she believes, has ignored Ricky's offer to be the first act at his new nightclub. But, in fact, Hope had already agreed; Ricky was just sitting on the information to keep Lucy from getting typically ditzy in front of one of his celebrity pals. Not surprisingly, mayhem follows when poor Hope finds his hand slathered with condiments and his noggin bonked by a foul ball. Other celebrity sightings include Orson Welles, who copes with Lucy's aspirations as a Shakespearean actress, and George Reeves, television's Superman, who shows up unexpectedly, in costume, at Little Ricky's birthday party. Meanwhile, Lucy--who didn't want to disappoint the tyke--stands in a makeshift Man of Steel outfit on a window ledge, in the rain. A number of episodes concern Little Ricky (Keith Thibodeaux) now that he's old enough to be a functioning character on the show. In "Little Ricky Learns to Play the Drums," the lad takes after his musician father and starts playing percussion, leading to some frayed nerves. A couple of episodes later, young Ricardo gets a bad case of stage fright at school, and Lucy suggests Ricky let him play the drums at the nightclub. (But then, of course, she has to figure out how to talk her son into performing.) A big change comes to I Love Lucy in the season's second half, when the Ricardos decide it's time to become homeowners and pull up stakes at their old Manhattan apartment. Moving to a nice, new house in Connecticut, they're soon joined by Fred (William Frawley) and Ethel (Vivian Vance), and the season's storylines take on a distinctly suburban flavor, with country clubs, barbecues, and gardens figuring into the comedy. With those developments, I Love Lucy came to a close after making television history as a much-beloved sitcom. Lots of special features, including multiple audio commentaries, flubs, lost scenes, and five episodes of My Favorite Husband, Ball's radio show. --Tom Keogh

I Love Lucy - The Complete Sixth Season September 12, 2009
L. Crockett (Rochester, NY United States)
Who hasn't fallen in love with Lucy? Although Fred and Ricky have very little to do in this season, Lucy and Ethel shine like always. The writers continue to hit each episode out of the park. This season is a "must have" for Lucy collectors of all ages.
Very Hilarious!!!!! September 4, 2009

I laughed so hard that I almost cried. This is a very good buy and fun for the whole family to watch over and over again. I guarantee that even the younger generation still find this very funny because my kids love to watch this! It takes the stress out of one's life... when you can laugh all your worries away!
One of the best I LOVE LUCY seasons!!! August 28, 2009
Nick Zebrowski (Ocean County, NJ USA)
This season of I Love Lucy is the best of them all. Its filled with even more messes and accidents now that they live in a large Connecticut ranch!!
Lucy cant help but tear apart her new brick grill, accidently run over her neighbor's tulip bed, and destroy the yankee doodle day statue all in one season!!
It is hilariously funny and fun to watch!
BUY IT!

Rick Krenske (St Paul, Minnesota)
What can I say about Lucille Ball? She was a comedy genius. It's really too bad that today's writers can't learn from her and others of that generation. You can get a whole lot of laughs without everything being sexual. I purchased the Lucy Sixth Season because of the episode featuring Superman. It wasn't included as an extra in the release of the Superman series. It cracks me up every time I see Superman talking to Desi about being married to Lucy. "And they call ME Superman!"

If you grew up watching Lucy on TV, this is the DVD collection for you. Buy it and sit back and enjoy all the shows.
