| has gloss | eng: Ethel Mertz is a fictional character played by Vivian Vance in the 1950s and 1960s American television sitcom I Love Lucy, where she was one of the four main roles. Ethel was born about 1905 and raised in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Her maiden name was Ethel Roberta Louise Mae Potter. Her father ran a sweet shop. She was married to Fred Mertz, whose character was played by William Frawley. Ethel was Lucys landlady, and Ethel and Lucy were always scheming though Ethel generally provided the voice of reason as a counterpart to Lucys more hairbrained ideas. |
