[QUOTE="Crimson, post: 383347, member: 5079"] Most versions align fairly closely to those events. Lucy was miserable in her semi-retirement of the early 80s, whiling away her time playing endless games of backgammon, but she also knew she couldn't give the public the "Lucy" they expected. Morton may have thought she'd be happier back in the studio, but she seemed to know she was being set up for failure. Pity the producers of THREE'S COMPANY didn't utilize Lucy as a guest star rather than just a host. THREE'S COMPANY was bawdier than Lucy was typically associated with, but she obviously liked it. And I LOVE LUCY could be surprisingly randy for its staid era. Lucy & Ethel in the hotel room with the travelling salesman ("You! Here! Dressed like that!") was a very proto-THREE'S COMPANY scenario.
