Fred Is Cheap
by crowgrl132017-05-19

"This is a great episode, showing the Ricardos and Mertzes getting ready to make the cross-country drive from New York to Hollywood. The thing that always irritated me about this episode, though, is how cheap Fred is. He refuses to pay for half of the gas or even half of the car oil for the trip....yet he pays for his and Ethel's hotel for a month. It makes no sense. But then again, I guess that's television for you!..."

💡 Did You Know?

When the car drives down East 68th Street, the viewers get to see the front of the Mertzes' apartment building for the very first time.
