- The Discussion Episode 127 where host, Dee Burris, speaks with his guests, Jerry Mathers and Teresa Mathers as recorded at Studio 4060 in Cleveland Tennessee on Saturday, December 31, 2022.
I`m 70 years old and have seen Jerry Mathers on air many a times. This is the first time I`ve seen Jerry real open up fully and I discovered Jerry is a very bright, well grounded and pragmatic man. Also Jerry has a very lovely wife that brings out the best in him.
Thoroughly enjoyed this interview. Jerry seems like such a genuine, good guy. Good sense of humor. And his wife is a lovely lady.
We're still watching Leave It To Beaver as often as we can. It's still bringing so much joy to so many.
Thank you for this wonderful interview. I have loved Beaver forever. What an honor to talk with him. His influence changed millions of lives.
it's refreshing to watch a good program. Thanks
The BEST BEAVER interview YET! I have seen them all! This one made me feel like I got to know YOU😊
Leave it to Beaver theme song is the most recognized iconic song ever ! A happy sweet tune ❤️🙏
This was an excellent interview…great questions and interesting answers!
Jerry Mathers, and His wife are very humber people, they are simply delightful. I conitnue watching the Bever Show today, Mr. and Mrs. Mathers have a great day.
My favorite episode is where Beaver is selling water, a true lesson in capitalism
If it were remade for Netflix today, they’d have the father chastise Beaver for not selling the water in a “racially equitable” manner lol
@@georgewashington3012 for sure
I remember that 😂 And someone (I think Wally) was like "Who's gonna BUY water?!" 😅 Lil Beav was ahead of his time!
Beaver was on 11 yrs before I even existed. 😂 I loved it. So did my kids. ❤

This was absolutely wonderful! I love Jerry Mathers and Leave it to Beaver. Good job, Dee!
Thank u much
Ive been watching leave it to beaver all my life,Im 72 now and thought I was age of beaver, in love with Wally,wanted to have a Wally and Beaver when I grow up,I had 3 sons.great show always love both them
Great interview Dee.
About the Hugh Beaumont intro, that stopped about 18 episodes into season one, if not earlier. But those were good intros. Sometimes when they showed clips as he did the introduction, those scenes are never seen in the show itself, watch "Next Door Indians," and there's a cast member in the intro, but not seen in the show itself. Unfortunately, I didn't have enough room in my new Leave it to Beaver book, "The World Famous Beaverpedia," to discuss these intros. Thanks for bringing them up in this interview.
I appreciate that
Wonderful interview! Such interesting questions and things I’ve never heard before. Love you Jerry!
I always had a Larry Mondelo type around me growing up in L.A. and I was always "Uhhh..I don't know if this is a good idea"..LOL!! Robert at 68.
Great interview. Way beyond the usual. Very enjoyable. I’m amazed though that no one talked about one of the most important elements of making the show so successful: the directors. Getting those great performances from those kids and the rest of the cast took an amazing director. Norman Tokar was the first one and did lots of the early shows before other directors came on. They always had great directors and it had a lot to do with the success of the show.
Thoroughly enjoyed! But couldn't help but thinking or feeling, Roy Rogers a childhood hero was interviewing the Beave! I really felt at home! Dee bears a strong resemblance to Roy and like Dee says, the Tennessee accent does go pretty past mid-state Ohio, where Roy's from. Maybe not as rich that far north. So Dee sounds like Roy Rogers too. I know, from Detroit driving south, in about two hours, even though your still Mid-West, but definitely the Tennessee Kentuck, brand southern drawl is taking over. What can I say. I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free. These two Americans remind me of that. Beave's wife was star struck too. She knew this discussion was out of this world, I mean literally. They're were angels unawares. To us mortals, but somehow I saw through to it. Maybe it was falling asleep and waking up during. Like I was there the whole time. In the room there with friends. Just loved the experience. The only thing missing was Trigger! Sorry couldn't help that! LOL! Thanks folks🗽
thank you so much for nice comment.
Enjoyed this time with the Beaver and wife!
I don’t understand why he said he doesn’t know what happened to “Larry” after the show when they clearly reunited for the 1983 reunion movie.
I found it strange that he went from HS to working in a bank to college... never mentioning he was in the Air Force for 3 or 4 years... Little Beaver is a Veteran!..
exactly right. I was so star struck I forgot to mention,.
I believe he was in the Air Force Reserve. Unless he served on active duty for more than 179 continuous days, he is not a Veteran.
I love the Shows Theme 🎶🎶
Toy Parade 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Father knows Best was set in Springfield Illinois.
And Mayfield seemed to be in Ohio. In the later seasons Ward mentioned June being in Shaker Heights; Wally mentioned something about Cleveland, etc.
Love Jerry Mathers but could hardly hear anything.
The Honeymooners announce the actors names in the intro. There were many in those days that did it
oh, yes correct, i forgot that
As did The Andy Griffith Show too!
I just watched your show with Perry Stone who I love I really enjoy your show and I did subscribe and hit the bell I am sure you will get a lot more followers I am going to be watching now I know about you
I really appreciate that. Nothing scripted, and I'm not trained in this sort of thing. Bit I enjoy it, and I think the people I talk to enjoy it. Thank u very much
thank you
He's a good promoter of home schooling without saying so, one on one teaching.🙂
I'm into at least 30 minutes of this and all I get is a tour of southern California. I have no patience for this. Maybe, there is more in depth questions later about the show, specific episodes, or characters.
It would be better to splice parts of the interview that were repeated several or more times during the session.
9:14: "Happy Days"....The Andy Griffith Show.
Wasn't Rusty Stevens on The New Leave it to Beaver?
I don't believe so, just the 1983 movie version.
@@chass5438 Thanks...yeah, I just remember him from the movie showing up at the Cleaver home...from the ashram....I think...
@@kelseymathias3881Actually he did appear on a few episodes of the New Leaves It To Beaver series, not just the Still The Beaver reunion.
@@westy40 ok, nice to hear...maybe I'll find them on YT...there is a clip of Rusty in the movie and then another in one of the episodes....plus a clip of grown-up Judy Hensler...hilarious!
He has a wife? I thought Beaver hated girls?!
haha funny
@@deeburrisjr My 88 year old mother lives with me, and every night I put in a Leave it to Beaver disc. I start at season one and go through to season six. Then I start all over again. My home "office" is on the other side of the room and I love and know every episode by heart. I was tempted to go through each episode and make a list of what I call "Wallyisms" of all the funny and off-the-wall things that Wally says.
Does he have children?
Good question, so I Googled = 3 children with his 2nd wife Rhonda.
It's the Beave............
God truly is in charge Jerry. Jesus is Lord. I pray you come to believe in him very soon. 1 Corinthians 15:1-4
THIS INTERVIEW HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOUR RELIGIOUS BELIEFS.
Thank you, good interview but you can tell he's not a believer, sad and I hope he accepts Christ as saviour before he passes. Love litb though, watch every morning😊
@@barbarabaldwin7120Thank you. The injecting of their religious beliefs IS totally unrelated to anything in the interview, and sets up an artificial barrier to anyone who enjoyed "Beaver" who is, say, of the Jewish faith, or any non-Christian faith, or non-religious, etc.
The original TV program never pushed a particular religion, neither does this interview/discussion. The ostracizing comments of the poster are totally inappropriate here
@@northdakotaful He did mention that he felt God was watching over him, which, while that may not make him a saved believer, he is also clearly not an atheist. He may simply believe that God is not sovereign in every aspect of life. He is not without hope yet.
@@chrisfreeman9960 The interviewer did ask the question about God to Jerry,; and while LITB never "pushed" a particular religion per se, church, Sunday school, etc. was often mentioned on the show. And of course, as Jerry mentioned multiple times, Hugh Beaumont was a Methodist minister. So, the commenters here certainly have a right to point out what they noticed in the faith portion of this interview. Trust me, we all love Jerry and LITB, and ALL the fans of this show...here we all are!
Too much discussion on philosopy.
I really enjoyed this but jerry hate to say repeated himself to much. He showed his aging 😢n he’s only 74.
Showing his age at 74? When do you begin to show your age?
I you were to have an interview (or just a conversation) with someone you do not know nor really have anything in common with for an hour and a half you just might find you would repeat things as well.
Watching portions of this again, Jerry answers pretty each question as if it stands alone for his response. I imagine he repeats what might have been said prior as he is very aware in the course of editing he cannot know which question and answer might get tossed out.
@@kathleenstevens2051 You make a very good observation and you just may be right. Makes perfect sense.
Hey ..Wally,,how come Eddie is such a Creep...
Crazy that Eddie is 1 of my favorite TV characters. My recently deceased wife called me Eddie on occasion.
Brady and
"You and him were watching ... "
You were watching . him was watching
REALLY?
