<p>It's all led this: Chapter 10, prepping the first ‘I Love Lucy’<em> </em>episode.  And we begin with another perfect storm, this time of logistics.  Where will they shoot in L.A., and HOW with multi-cam on 35mm film, in front of a live audience?  Not to mention in front of the camera had its own issues.  Remember the Pilot didn’t have the Mertzes;  and now they needed to find them.  Rehearsals got under way in the same space construction crews were still building sets.  And Lucille herself?  Coddling her pregnancy (understandably;  after all, it was ten years in the making).  Then we’ll close-out the season, our story, on Saturday, September 8th, 1951;  the first official ‘I Love Lucy’ shoot day<em>.</em>  Would it be a hit?  Maybe.  The conservative estimates in their favor?  Rooting FOR them?  They had a fifty-fifty shot.  Please chime in here with your questions &amp; comments, or just sharing your love of Lucille Ball and her road to ‘I Love Lucy!’  Thanks for listening ...</p>
