Yesterday we had the exclusive on a special "Message from CBS DVD" bonus item which will be part of their just-announced July 21 release of The Lucy Show - The Official 1st Season. It was shown as a (long) still picture, not as the animation that you'll get on the actual set. And, as we indicated, it wasn't in its final form yet (as evidenced by the box art at the end of it not being the same as the hi-res shot we brought you, seen again below).
Now CBS DVD has asked us to quickly bring you the updated version of that message, with additional information, corrected box art, AND shown in its proper form as a video. We've got that for you this evening, Additionally, we've learned from our retail contacts that this 4-disc set's bonus material not only includes the below message, the rare cast commercials, and the new Lucie Arnaz interview we reported last time, but it will also include flubs and original promos, too, plus we're told that Jimmy Garrett ("Jerry Carmichael") is interviewed on this set as well. That's great news! On top of that, the updated message notes more supplements: clips from the CBS Television special "Opening Night" (introducing the CBS fall line-up that year), other clips and network promos, cast bios and production notes. Take a look:
