Character mistake: Or continuity: When Ricky enters the Mertz's apartment, waking everyone up, little Ricky starts crying in the crib, and Ricky moves closer and accidentally says, 'Why is she awake?' instead of 'he,' as his own baby daughter Lucie was almost 2 at the time.
Suggested correction: The issue was due to his accent; several times during the course of the show, when Rickey said "he," it sounded like "she."
Other mistake: When Lucy responds to the money matter about her hair care, she states, "I can be a thin redhead or a fat brunette," when her real-life natural hair colour was blonde (later dyed to enhance her film career).
Suggested correction: Lucille Ball was naturally blonde. Lucy Ricardo was a brunette. This is, at best, trivia.
