Premise: The TV icon plays a widow living with best bud Vivian and their kids while she works as a secretary for long-suffering banker Mr. Mooney. Five years after `I Love Lucy,' and without Desi, Ball scored another hit series that showcased her gift for physical comedy and her chemistry with old cohort Vivian Vance (who left after the third season). After undergoing a format change in 1968, it was retitled `Here's Lucy.'
