The classic TV series won't be making its Blu-ray debut until May.
As previously reported, Paramount was preparing 'I Love Lucy: The Complete First Season' for Blu-ray on April 8, but now the date has been changed to May 6.
You've loved and laughed at Lucy, Ricky, Fred, and Ethel for years, but you've never seen 'I Love Lucy' like this on glorious high-definition. Coming to Blu-ray in a highly collectible set with special gloss packaging that includes every episode from the first season, each one beautifully restored in high definition, in original night-of-broadcast form with original sponsor openings and closings. The set also includes a number of special features, many never before released on DVD.
Specs have not been detailed yet but the 6-disc set will include: Audio Commentary (from the Criterion Collection laserdisc); Nine Production Featurettes; The Very First Show (1990 Network Special); The Very First Show: Outtakes; Series Bloopers/Flubs; Clowning Around; Interview: Meet Marc Daniels; The Sunday Lucy Show (SD); 1951 Promo (SD); Lucy On The Radio ("My Favorite Husband" radio broadcasts, audio only); Photo Gallery; and Production Notes.
Suggested list price for the Blu-ray is $119.99.
