RIP Michael J. Pollard

1939-2019

Oscar nominated actor Michael J. Pollard has died at age 80. He was born in 1939 in Passaic, New Jersey. In addition to his many film and television credits, he was the original Hugo Peabody in Broadway’s BYE BYE BIRDIE in 1960.  

In January 1964, he appeared as Ted Mooney, son of Gale Gordon’s Banker Mr. Mooney, on “The Lucy Show” (TLS S2;E16) who was dating Lucy’s daughter, Chris.

In the episode, “Chris Goes Steady,” Mr. Mooney bristles when Lucy suggests that Ted and Chris may get married, dreading that they would be related. In “Here’s Lucy,” Lucy’s character is indeed related to Gale Gordon’s – she is his brother-in-law. They are also related by marriage in “Life With Lucy.”  

This was Pollard’s only appearance opposite Lucille Ball, although he would go on to appear in “Star Trek”, a Desilu series.  

In 1967, Pollard was nominated for an Oscar and other major acting awards for his role in the film BONNIE & CLYDE.

The Cars 2nd studio album was released on 13 June 1979, almost exactly one year after their debut. The label wanted to delay the release of the album, since the band’s self-titled debut was still selling well, but the band insisted on putting out new material.

Candy-O peaked at #3 in the US charts and is cited as “one of the best second albums ever made.”

Drummer David Robinson coaxed 83-year-old Alberto Vargas out of retirement to create the cover art (a painting of 31-year-old actress/model Candy Moore).

Lucy and the Great Bank Robbery

S3;E5 ~ October 19, 1964

Synopsis

When Lucy rents out Viv's room to two gentlemen visiting for the World's Fair, they turn out to be bank robbers who stash the loot in Viv's mattress.  

Regular Cast

Lucille Ball (Lucy Carmichael), Gale Gordon (Theodore J. Mooney), Vivian Vance (Vivian Bagley), Candy Moore (Chris Carmichael), Jimmy Garrett (Jerry Carmichael) and Ralph Hart (Sherman Bagley)

This is Ralph Hart's first appearance in season 3.  This is the first time the entire regular cast has been together since “Ethel Merman and the Boy Scout Show” (S2;E19).  

Guest Cast

John Williams (Carter Harrison) was born in England in 1903. He is perhaps best known for his role as Chief Inspector Hubbard in Dial M for Murder, a role he played on Broadway, in Alfred Hitchcock's classic 1954 film, and on television in 1958. From 1924 to 1970 he appeared in more than 30 Broadway plays, winning a Tony Award in 1953. This was his only appearance opposite Lucille Ball.  

On "Here's Lucy" Gale Gordon will also play a character named Harrison Carter.

Lloyd Corrigan (Gordon Bentley) was a portly character actor who played bit parts in silent movies before switching his attention to writing and directing. He returned to acting in the 1940s, appearing in two films with Lucille Ball. He first appeared as Mr. Holly in “Lucy Puts Up a TV Antenna” (S1;E9).  He will return for “Lucy the Choirmaster” (S4;E13).    

In the end credits, John Williams is listed as playing Bentley and Lloyd Corrigan as Harrison. When the characters introduce themselves to Lucy, they say the reverse.

Roy Rowan (Radio Announcer) was the off-camera announcer for every episode of “My Favorite Husband”, “I Love Lucy” as well as “The Lucy Show” and “Here’s Lucy.” He was also the voice heard when TV or radio programs were featured on the plot of all three shows. He was first heard announcing the TV football game in “Lucy is a Referee” (S1;E3). His first on-camera appearance was in “Lucy Takes Up Golf” (S2;E17).  

Hazel Pierce (Bank Customer) was Lucille Ball’s camera and lighting stand-in throughout “I Love Lucy.” She also made frequent appearances on the show. Of her many on-camera appearances on “The Lucy Show” only once was she given a character name and credited, in “Lucy Plays Cleopatra” (S1;E1). She was also an uncredited extra in the film Forever Darling (1956).

Uncredited background performers play the police officers, bank staff and customers.  

This episode was written by Bob Schiller and Bob Weiskopf.  Although they departed the series as regular writers in season two, Lucille Ball convinced them to contribute several scripts to season 3.

This episode was filmed on June 4, 1964, before the production went on hiatus for the summer. It was aired out of filming sequence.  

The night this episode first aired, “The Lucy Show” was aired opposite “The Andy Williams Show” on NBC, which featured frequent “Lucy” guest star Tennessee Ernie Ford.

Viv and Lucy discuss Ralph Bagley, Vivian's ex-husband.

The two boarders claim they're in Danfield for the nearby 1964 World's Fair held in New York City.  The New York World’s Fair was held in Flushing Meadow, Queens, opening on April 22, 1964, just three weeks after this episode first aired. It closed on October 17, 1965, although it was not open during the winter months of 1964/65. It was first mentioned in “Lucy and the Scout Trip” (S2;E26). Due to the great influx of tourists to Queens during the Fair, it was not uncommon for residents to rent rooms to visitors. 

August 31, 1964 was Lucy Day at the World’s Fair! Ball was treated to a parade through the fairgrounds, a VIP tour, and an honorary luncheon and performance. 

Chris mentions The Beatles. The day this episode was filmed (June 4, 1964) The Beatles began their first and only world concert tour starting with a performance in Copenhagen. The Beatles were previously mentioned in “Lucy and the Plumber” (S3;E2).  

Bentley calls Harrison the "Bard of the bandits." Only a few months before this, John Williams (Harrison), had played William Shakespeare, 'the bard of Stratford-upon-Avon,' on “The Twilight Zone.” This is the second episode in a row to mention the CBS sci-fi anthology series.

Harrison says he wants to stop robbing banks and rob art galleries instead: “Imagine pilfering a Picasso.”  Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) is regarded as one of the greatest and most influential artists of the 20th century. He is known for co-founding the cubist movement and the invention of constructed sculpture. He was previously mentioned Picasso in “Lucy Builds a Rumpus Room” (S1;E11) and “Lucy Decides To Redecorate” (S2;E8).  

The two boarders also wonder about robbing drive-in banks: “Just toot for the loot and scoot.” The first drive-in bank window dates back to 1928. The post-World War II spurt in automotive sales saw steady growth in drive-up banking.  

This is the fourth time we have seen Viv’s bedroom and each time the layout has changed. In this episode, the bed has been moved across the room. In all four episodes, however, Viv has the same headboard. Before the remodeling in “Lucy Decides to Redecorate” (S2;E8), the painting above the dresser was on the living room wall.

Viv's lumpy mattress was previously the subject of “Lucy and Her Electric Mattress” (S1;E12).  

Lucy thinks the cash in the mattress belongs to Viv, calling her Mrs. J.P. Morgan. John Pierpont Morgan (1837–1913) was an American financier and banker who dominated corporate finance and industrial consolidation in late 19th and early 20th century.

Reading The Danfield Tribune, Viv notes that Oscar the butcher has a special on rump roast.  This is the third butcher to be mentioned on the series.  The first was Ernie (Joe Mell) in “Together for Christmas” (S1;E13). The second was Mr. Krause (Tom G. Linder) in “Lucy and the Plumber” (S3;E2).  

Viv says the all those henna rinses have finally pickled Lucy's brain. Henna Rinse was the dye that Lucille Ball (and Lucy Ricardo) used to keep her hair its distinctive orange color. Bear in mind that TV viewers still had not seen Lucy's red hair because CBS had yet to air “The Lucy Show” in color!  

The robbers stole $8,500 dollars from the bank's safe. The radio announcer (Roy Rowan) says the theft would not normally have been reported until Monday, but Mr. Mooney showed up at his desk, forgetting that it was Saturday. This neatly closes a loophole in the plot and earns a laugh from the studio audience.  

Of course, Lucy immediately assumes Viv stole the cash.  Lucy compare her to Ma Barker. Kate Barker (1873– 1935) was the mother of several criminals who ran the Barker gang. She traveled with her sons during their criminal careers. FBI director J. Edgar Hoover described her as "the most vicious, dangerous and resourceful criminal brain of the last decade." Her legend was kept alive by the 1960 feature film Ma Barker's Killer Brood starring “I Love Lucy” veterans Lurene Tuttle (“The Club Election” ILL S2;E19), Tristram Coffin (Harry Munson) and Paul Dubov (“The Handcuffs” ILL S2;E6). Ma Barker was parodied as Ma Parker in a 1970 episode of “Here's Lucy” starring Carole Cook as the maternal criminal.  

Viv asks Lucy to “stop acting like a mystery guest” and explain her accusations. 'Mystery guests' were participants in the CBS TV quiz show “What's My Line” (1950 to 1967). Lucille Ball appeared on the show numerous times.  

Callbacks!

When Lucy hides the loot under her baggy sweater and stretch pants, her look is similar to when Lucy Ricardo tried to smuggle raw eggs under her clothes in “Lucy Does the Tango” (ILL S6;E20).  

Blooper Alerts!

Beauty Sleep!  At the start of the episode Viv says that she is not wearing any makeup, but it's obvious that Vivian Vance is wearing both eye makeup and lipstick.

Name That Tune! At least on the official 3rd Season DVD, the music heard on Jerry's portable radio is definitely not The Beatles. Sometimes licenses for music expire and producers must replace the original soundtrack with a royalty-free version. Whether that is the case here remains unclear.

Seeing Double! The bank seems to have two adjacent bulletin boards, each with the exact same notices posted on them.

Stray Props! When Lucy's grocery bags break (as well as the robbers' shopping bags), a couple of items are left underfoot in front of the teller window.  

Crash Prevention! When Lucy is turning the mattress in Viv's room, she nearly knocks over the lamp on the bedside table. Lucille Ball takes a moment to steady it before continuing.

Door is Ajar! When the thieves return from the World’s Fair, they leave the front door open. This may have been intentional to facilitate the easy entrance of Mr. Mooney and the policemen.
