It was the early 1950s, and "I Love Lucy" had America enraptured. The show was so popular that, as Lucille Ball, the star who played "Lucy" would say,
"In 1951-52, our show changed the Monday-night habits of America. Between nine and nine-thirty, taxis disappeared from the streets of New York. Marshall Fields department store in Chicago hung up a sign: 'We love Lucy too, so from now on we'll be open Thursday nights instead of Monday.' Telephone calls across the nation dropped sharply during that half hour, as well as the water flush rate, as whole families sat glued to their seats."
But in 1952, the show nearly came to a stop. Lucille was pregnant. She and her husband, Desi Arnaz, were expecting their second child.
Joyful it was for the couple but problematic for the show, considering the societal taboos around depicting pregnancy on television. Sensing an opportunity to be bold and help shift social norms, the executives and writers wrote Lucille's real-life pregnancy into the show, though they used the word “expecting” instead of “pregnant.”
As Lucille's pregnancy unfolded on screen, the show handled it with warmth and humor, delighting viewers and adding to its immense popularity.
On January 19, 1953, Lucille gave birth to Desi Arnaz Jr., and just 12 hours later, 44 million viewers – 72% of American households – tuned in to see Lucy welcome Little Ricky into the world. The episode garnered more viewers than President Dwight D. Eisenhower's inauguration the following day.

@FAMa_DIRPA Je suis RDCongolais, je suis très fier du peuple malien et de la démonstration qu'ils font a la face du monde que le peuple Africain est en phase de renaissance. Se réveillant d'un long sommeil pour jouir pleinement de sa souveraineté sur le sol de ses aïeux

@fifimasuk @fatshi13 BRAVO.Les nuages peuvent cacher le soleil un moment mais finissent par se dissiper sous sa chaleur. Ne sous-estimez jamais les gens gentils ils ne sont pas faibles ils sont simplement éduqués. Ils savent pardonner une erreur mais ne savent pas pardonner une méchanceté. Les mines!
