What is the meaning of enciente?

Pregnant is Spanish- see I Love Lucy episode "Lucy is Enciente"

In an I love Lucy episode Ethel says you don't buy 16 shoes for comfort you buy them for looks How much would those 16 be in todays rates?

Since I'm not sure exactly which episode this came from (if you know please do tell) we'll assume that the year would be 1951, the year "I Love Lucy" started. According to the inflation calculator a pair of shoes that cost $16 dollars in 1951 would go for approximately $132 in today's money. Not cheap but certainly not the most expensive pair of women's shoes you could get today.

Check below for the source link on inflation.

When was the Lucille Ball Show first run on TV?

I hope I can help you with this one. Lucille Ball did several tv shows, but none were called " The Lucille Ball Show ". " I Love Lucy " began airing in 1951. " The Lucy Show " in 1962. " Here's Lucy " in 1968. A brief return to tv was in 1986 with " Life With Lucy ". I hope one of these shows is the one you were asking about! Isn't it really something that I Love Lucy has NEVER been off the air since it first began! What a legacy!!

Actually, after I love Lucy ended in 1957, they continued the characters on "The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour" which ran until 1960. I think this is what you are talking about, because the original working title of this show was called "The Ford Lucille Ball - Desi Arnaz show for the first of the three seasons and then changed to "The Westinghouse Desilu Playhouse presents the Lucille Ball - Desi Arnaz Show"
