- There are scenes of moderate sex, as well as moderate sex references. Lucille Ball challenges the discriminatory attitudes of television executives who are uneasy about her insistence that her real-life, Cuba-born husband Arnaz play her fictional spouse in an "all-American" sitcom; the discrimination is historically contextualised and Ball gets her way. Ball is seen on a film set wearing make-up that gives her face the appearance of being bruised after a comment is made about the role she is playing of "a burlesque girl who had just been beaten up by her pimp". There is cigarette smoking throughout the film which reflects the historical period in which the film is set.
