Liz Stretches The Truth

Liz can't help but make things bigger and more dramatic than they really are. So she decides to do the opposite and tell things exactly as they happened—and she does it really intensely.

My Favorite Husband is an American radio program and network television show. The original radio show, starring Lucille Ball, shaped into the famous sitcom I Love Lucy. The series was based on the novels Mr. and Mrs. Cugat, the Record of a Happy Marriage (1940) and Outside Eden (1945) written by Isabel Scott Rorick, the earlier of which had previously been adapted into the Paramount Pictures feature film Are Husbands Necessary? (1942), co-starring Ray Milland and Betty Field.
