Season 2 of I Love Lucy includes two of the most famous half-hours in television history. “Job Switching,” originally broadcast mid-September of 1952, is the crazy, battle-of-the-sexes episode in which husbands Ricky Ricardo (Desi Arnaz) and Fred Mertz (William Frawley) trade roles with wives Lucy (Lucille Ball) and Ethel (Vivian Vance), culminating in the men making a shambles of domestic chores while Lucy and Ethel take disastrous work at a chocolate factory. That’s right: This is the show where the ladies have a Chaplinesque experience with a too-fast factory conveyor belt, forcing them to hide candies in their mouths, in their hats, and down their blouses lest a tough forewoman fire them for incompetence. A half-century later, the scene is still so fresh and funny it would grace any current sitcom. “Lucy Goes to the Hospital,” which received an amazing 71.7 rating on January 19, 1953, is the historic episode featuring the birth of Little Ricky and a load of wonderful slapstick. The other 31 episodes included in I Love Lucy: The Compete Second Season have choice moments, too. “Lucy Becomes a Sculptress” finds the ever-ambitious redhead falling for empty flattery at an art-supply store and commencing an ill-advised career working in clay. Ricky agrees to bless this new endeavor if an art critic says she has talent, but Lucy tries to increase her chances by posing as a bust of herself–resulting in mayhem, of course. The usual running themes in I Love Lucy–Lucy’s misguided desire to be a part of Ricky’s musical career, and her penchant for disguising herself to investigate something–are all over The Complete Second Season. “Ricky Loses His Voice” is a delightful piece in which Ricky’s laryngitis inspires Lucy, the Mertzes, and an aging chorus line to put on a Tropicana spectacle, and “Ricky Has Labor Pains” finds Lucy and Ethel going undercover as male reporters to find out what happens at a stag party…”"
