Fox News
Friday marks 70 years since "I Love Lucy," the comedy starring Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz, first hit TV screens in American households.
The site features replica sets of Lucy and Ricky Ricardo’s New York City apartment, "623 E. 68th Street," as well as their California suite at the fictional Beverly Palms Hotel. Props, scripts and the couple’s wardrobe are all on display, and fans can take the opportunity to place themselves in their favorite scenes.
"Visitors definitely have this visible reaction full of nostalgia," Journey Gunderson, executive director of the Lucille Ball Desi Arnaz Museum and the National Comedy Center told Fox News.
"For most people, stepping into the museum and seeing sets of ‘I Love Lucy’ takes them back to an era, gathering with family around the television, laughing together and enjoying with the entire country what is arguably the most successful television show of all time by several measures," Gunderson added.
