I think the specials are amazing. I love them. I can't wait for the rest to come out! Picture is so clear, everything is wonderful. Stories are great, and of course Lucy is amazing! Not gonna lie, I usually buy DVD's for bonus features - & this one has tons! Lucy on the radio, Lucy on TV shows, Lucy's co-stars talking about Lucy - Working with Lucy, it's wonderful. FOR SURE worth it!

Let me first say that I LOVE LUCY and have since I was old enough to watch tv. I grew up watching her shows, I own I LOVE LUCY the entire series as well as HERES LUCY boxed set and the first season of THE LUCY SHOW. I am glad I bought these specials but I am sorry to say they are not Lucy at her best by any means. The first special with Dean Martin was pretty good. I did enjoy it.That being said, THREE FOR TWO with Jackie Gleason was certainly another story. I am also a fan of Gleasons, I have all the sets of the HONEY MOONERS and watch them all the time, check out the color episodes now availible from MPI, they are very funny. this special is almost unwatchable,something I thought I would never say about these two major talents. I can not imagine what they where thinking didn't anyone read the script??? I understand they were going for something different. Lucille was'nt playing LUCY and I respect that, but if it was not for my admiration of the talent involved I never would have finished this program, yes it was that bad.the set does have some great extras though,and it is worth the price for the Dean Martin special alone
Two Great Specials August 3, 2009

MPI's release of "Lucy Gets Lucky" and "Three For Two" is a great treat. Both of these specials bring back a lot of memories. Of the two specials "Lucy Gets Lucky" is much more enjoyable. It kind of reminds me of an hour long Here's Lucy episode. The bonus features on this DVD are a must for any Lucy fan. I especially enjoyed Lucy's radio series "Let's Talk to Lucy" from the 1960's. Someone at CBS should release all episodes of this talk treat radio series. It was a real treat listening to Lucy interview Dean Martin. I look forward to the next four Lucy specials ("Happy Anniversary & Goodbye," "What Now, Catherine Curtis," "Lucy Calls The President," and "Lucy Moves to NBC") that MPI plans to release in the coming months. Too bad that the 1964 Lucille Ball Comedy Special "Mr. and Mrs." and 1967 special "Lucy In London" are owned by CBS. I would love for these two specials to be released in a boxed set.
 I Love Lucy, But Not These Specials July 30, 2009

First, I LOVE Lucy and always felt that no matter what she did, it was worth watching...even 1974's "Mame" which was a clambake, had its moments. Watching Lucy on TV without live audience responses is pretty "blah". These specials that Lucy did with Dean Martin & Jackie Gleason seemed like little more than Lucy's need to work, without really reading the scripts and figuring out "What can we do to make these funny?" The Dean Martin special is tolerable, but worth skipping; however, the special with Jackie Gleason has to be the worst TV special in the history of television. There is no funny moments. Just Lucy struggling with bad material and Gleason struggling to be sober. I Love Lucy, but I can do without "Lucy Gets Lucky" or "Three For Two" in my DVD library.
