Remembering Madelyn Pugh on her birthday 🎂
At her office at Desilu Studios, March 17, 1963
"'Girl-writer' is honestly what they called me. This was because comedy shows for people like Bob Hope & Jack Benny were usually written by groups of men who were known as 'The Boys'."

In the latest episode of @revalmanac.bsky.social, I mentioned a female-centered film that left a strong impression—Stage Door (1937). This classic follows aspiring actresses in a NYC boarding house, starring Ginger Rogers, Katharine Hepburn, and featuring Lucille Ball. #ClassicHollywood #StageDoor

"A backstage bulletin board listed the names of cast and crew with a series of gold stars next to each name.The stars represented off-camera adlibs.Bill Frawley's stars ran the length of the board and then some, so quickly that the project was soon abandoned. "Lack of competition,"Lucille explained.

The Forever Darling trailer opened with Desi talking to the stick figures used in the original I Love Lucy openings. The blue satin fabric under the credits was later used for the syndication reruns of I Love Lucy. Or as it's more commonly referred to as, the "heart on satin opening.' #lucilleball
