I Love Lucy
The story of how Frawley was hired to play Fred Mertz in "I Love Lucy" is told in "I Love Lucy: A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Sitcom", a comedy that had its world premiere in Los Angeles on July 12, 2018. The play, from Gregg Oppenheimer (son of "I Love Lucy" creator-producer-head writer Jess Oppenheimer), was recorded in front of a live audience for nationwide public radio broadcast and online distribution.
