But it's fucking awesome.
Urumi, I think it's called.
I should show you some videos.
One last one that we have, and I'm curious what your thoughts on this.
Amanda Barnes, who runs our whole production, Amanda Barnes wants us to talk about I Love Lucy and how it revolutionized TV.
First time it was filmed on film instead of live, which developed the process of syndication.
First mainstream representation of interracial couple.
Desi invented the multi-camera system.
Lucy and Desi ran the studio, Desilu Studios, women in the writer's room.
When they got their awards for the show, they campaigned for writer's awards.
It's still funny.
Longest live audience laughter ever recorded is on this show.
Ground-breaking show.
I've watched a couple episodes, and I remember watching it and being like, this is so good.
Like, it's so well executed, so well done.
A fun fact about I Love Lucy is that when Damien and I were on So Random on Disney Channel, it was shot at Hollywood Center Studios.
And at lunch, we would go to a different set to eat lunch, and all the catering was there.
