I Love Lucy (1951–1957)
2/10
A Horrible Role Model for Women
22 August 2022
Lucy is the absolute worst. She's a conniving liar who constantly meddles in Ricky's work under some wild delusion that she has a modicum of talent. They even dedicated a whole episode to Lucy not being able to tell the truth for 24 hours. What a piece of scum that can't even go one day without lying. Even when caught in a lie she just keeps adding more lies.

She is one of the most passive aggressive people to ever slime their way across a TV screen. If she doesn't get what she wants she throws a tantrum and makes everyone's life hell until she gets it. She lives a privileged pampered life but plays the victim like she's married to a drunk who beats her senseless every day. She doesn't remotely deserve Ricky and is in serious need of a reality check.

More than once she calls Ricky claiming to be in mortal danger from an attacker just to see if Ricky "really loved" her and would rush to save her. She'd deserve every bit of it if something did happen to her, ala 'The Girl Who Cried Wolf'.

The real star of the show is Ricky and his unending patience. He's a real role model for a gentleman. Lucy however is a horrible role model for women.
