Los Angeles County Lifeguards
Thousands of men, women, and children owe their lives to the Los Angeles County Lifeguards. Made famous by the television show Baywatch, these lifeguards patrol 72 miles of coastline extending from Zuma Beach to the Los Angeles
Harbor. Working on some of the world's most scenic and active beaches, Los Angeles County lifeguards protect the safety and lives of more than 50 million visitors each year. For nearly a century they have braved hazardous weather and surf conditions to rescue drowning swimmers, sinking vessels, and downed aircraft in the ocean. As the Lifeguard Operations Unit of the Los Angeles County Fire Department, they make more than 10,000 ocean rescues a year.

Lucy Show: The Lost Episodes Marathon, The (Special Edition)
In the late 1940s, when television as we know it was just beginning, the producers, directors and stars were all flying by the seat of their collective pants.
From day to day, they were all guessing, even the Network executives.
But soon, two performers began to stand our from all the rest.
They were Milton Berle and Lucille Ball.
Lucy went on to star in five TV sitcoms, one of which was "The Lucy Show".
In these hilarious episodes from that classic series, you'll see what made her TV's monarch of comedy as she romps with the likes of Vivian Vance, Mel Torme, Jim Nabors, John Bubbles, John Wayne, Carol Burnett, George Burns and Milton Berle. "The Lucy Show" was the third series with which Lucille Ball had dominated the Monday night line-up on CBS.
"The Lucy Show," like her earlier series, "I Love Lucy," ran six fun-filled seasons, and stayed in the Top 10 in the ratings for its entire run.
