  • Have you wondered about the Leave it to Beaver cast? From the main characters, we’ve lost many of the cast members. The Leave it to Beaver cast was a dynamic set of actors who gave us one of the best sitcoms in the history of American television. As we look back at reruns of the show, let’s make sure we pay respects the members of the Leave it to Beaver cast who are no longer with us.

    There’s Hugh Beaumont who played Ward Cleaver, the patriarch of the family and one of the earliest examples of a classic sitcom dad. Barbara Billingsley played June, who was the All-American mother and an idyllic example of what an American woman should be. Who can forget about Ken Osmond who played Eddie Haskell? This character was the friend of Wally Cleaver and was the troublemaker who added to much of the show’s conflict and comedy.
    Frank Bank played “Lumpy” Rutherford who was one of the bullies in the show. His performance was praised and despite the roughness of his character, he was one of the most loved characters from the show. Richard Deacon played Fred Rutherford who was Ward’s unbearable coworker. He was one of the earliest examples of that coworker you just wish would call in sick sometimes!
    And finally, let’s not forget about Madge Blake who played Margaret Mondello - the mother of Larry Mondello who passed away in the 1960s. These actors and actresses may not have known it, but they helped create one of the greatest sitcoms in American history. So how did they pass away and how can we remember their legacy?
    Let’s look more into how each Leave it to Beaver cast member died and their unique lives and careers. Let’s also catch up with Tony Dow and Jerry Mathers who are still with us…

      I don't see the show in that way. It is repressed judgmental people that really never existed. Never anybody but white upper middle class Christian people. This group of people that are most likely to be child molesters.
      One episode Wally meets a girl at the movies that smokes and drinks beer. She is from California and they all look down on her and wonder if she is a divorcee. That term is so repressive and sexist it makes me sick.
      So no I don't wish for a time that never existed that was sexist, racist, homophobic, and repressive. America is all about the freedom to be who you choose to be. This TV version on America is more like North Korea than what the founding fathers intended.

    I grew up in the 50's next door to a family like the Beaver's. The father owned a local business and was liked by all the kids. When we were out playing in the yard, he would sit on the porch reading the paper and watch. We all felt secure when he was around. He had two sons and a wife that was a real homemaker. As a eight to twelve year old, I would even spend time with her even when no one else was home. She always had a kind word and never seemed too busy to talk. That home saved me from my dysfunctional home. Back then, kids were free to roam the neighborhood. But that house was always full of the neighborhood kids and we were all accepted. Now I wonder how she put up with us all, playing games and yelling every day after school.

    Eastbound on the Ventura Freeway heading into Hollywood, I noticed a white full sized Bronco on the shoulder. Having been a freeway service technician for years, it's a natural for me to stop and assist if I can. This guy's body was out into the right lane trying to change a tire and could've been hit. NOT GOOD. I pulled past him (saw him too late) and got out of my vehicle to assist ... JERRY MATHERS. Didn't recognize him at the first glance. I told him I would change the tire, I wanted him to motion traffic away from the immediate area lest we both get killed. As it turns out, the spare tire was not holding air so we pulled it and went to the nearest service station to get it patched. All the while, everyone we encountered was pointing and saying 'Hey it's the Beav', LOL. To be expected. Got the repaired tire on the road and said farewell. Glad to help, celebrity or not.

The times of Communist Witch Hunts, blacks not being able to sit at diners, or having to sit in the back of the bus, back when the Police, the Catholic Church and Boy Scout masters were always right.

    One of my favourite episodes of that series is the one where Beaver and Wally withdraw some money from their bank accounts to buy their dad a new duck hunting jacket. Not just *any* duck hunting jacket either - a very expensive one from an ultra-ritzy sporting goods store. Ward at first thinks Beaver and Wally had spent their money on expensive baseball equipment, but when he opens the box, he sees a beautiful new duck hunting jacket. The boys had overheard that his jacket was getting worn out, so they wanted to give him a brand new one. Try converting the money from the fifties to today's money. They basically paid around $400 in today's money for a nice duck hunting jacket.

    I loved watching Beaver back in the day. Eddie Haskell was so funny, and all the shows were pretty good. Hard to believe we were all so innocent back then, but we were!

    Probably not a forgotten show because it holds a place with shows from the early days of TV. Like a lot of those shows it shows up on cable stations from time to time. Always liked the show.
