First episode: ""Lucy Is Enceinte"" (broadcast date: 12/8/52). The first time pregnancy was dealt with on television, shattering a TV taboo! In fact, the word `pregnant` couldn`t even be said on TV at the time, so the Spanish equivalent was used in the title. When Lucy learns she`s expecting, she tries to tell Ricky the news, leading to a hilarious series of misunderstandings. Second episode: ""Lucy Goes to the Hospital"" (broadcast date: 1/19/53). The hysterical, historical episode featuring the birth of Little Ricky! Lucy arranged to actually give birth the day this show was aired, elevating the broadcast toa national event, and completely overshadowing TV coverage of the inauguration of President Dwight D. Eisenhower!" Director: William Asher, Marc Daniels et al.. Actors: Lucille Ball, Desi Arnaz, Vivian Vance, William Frawley . Black and White. Country: United States. No Subtitles.
