Here's Lucy Season 1 Episode 12 Lucy the Matchmaker

Lucy the Matchmaker is the twelfth episode of the first season of Here's Lucy. The show stars Lucille Ball as Lucy Carter, a single mother working in the entertainment industry. This particular episode aired on December 6th, 1968.

In this episode, Lucy attempts to play matchmaker for her friend Sue, who she believes is lonely and in need of love. Lucy decides to set Sue up on a blind date with a man she met at the supermarket. However, things quickly take a turn for the worse when the man turns out to be a terrible match for Sue. He is rude, self-centered and clearly not someone Sue would be interested in.

Undeterred, Lucy decides to save the evening by inviting Sue to a dinner party with her and her brother-in-law, Harry. Lucy believes that Harry and Sue would be a perfect match, and she spends the entire evening trying to get the two of them to hit it off. However, as the night goes on, it becomes clear that Harry has his own plans - he is actually trying to set up Lucy with one of his friends.

What follows is a hilarious series of misunderstandings and miscommunications as Lucy and Harry try to play matchmaker for each other, unaware of each other's plans. Lucy attempts to sabotage Harry's efforts to set her up, while Harry does everything he can to keep Sue and Lucy apart. Meanwhile, Sue is caught in the middle, trying to figure out what is going on.

The episode is a classic example of the kind of fast-paced, physical comedy that made Lucille Ball a household name. Lucy's attempts to win Harry over are particularly hilarious, as she tries to impress him by cooking a fancy meal and even ends up wearing an absurd outfit to make herself more attractive.

Overall, Lucy the Matchmaker is a fun, light-hearted episode that showcases the humor and wit of Lucille Ball. It's a great example of the kind of timeless comedy that made Here's Lucy such a hit in the late 60s and early 70s.
