Here's Lucy: The Complete Series Packaging Information



This information is referring to the Here's Lucy complete dvd box set released in 2014 by MPI home video.

Here's Lucy was an American sitcom which ran for 6 seasons between 1968 and 1974 starring Lucille Ball, her real life children: Lucie & Desi Jr, and Gale Gordon.  This was Lucy's second sitcom since I Love Lucy ended and followed The Lucy Show (also excellent).


I was a bit disappointed when I opened my box to find 3 of the dvd cases were cracked and/or broken. Although I suspect this was down to shipping issues it is still quite disappointing.  Lately I have had numerous items (dvds and books) arrive damaged. It appears that online companies have greatly reduced the protective packaging in recent years at the same time as the post office seems to be treating packages far rougher than previously.Annoying at best.



But anyways, each season of Here's Lucy is packaged in a standard size dvd case with the discs inside on flip holders rather than stacked and are easy to access.  On the back of each cover is basic episode information for that season.




The 6 seasons are housed in a cardboard box of very simple and lightweight design that is not going to take much (any) abuse.  The packaging could use a bit more work on this one and I think is only worth purchasing as a box set if you plan on buying all the seasons and is cheaper than buying the individuals when totaled together as this set offers nothing special beyond that.


I hope everyone is having a great day!
