Still the Beaver 1983 CBS TV movie, original cast (revised)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 июн 2020
- Revised and higher quality version of the original 1983 CBS TV reunion movie that I first posted here on my RUclips channel in November 2018.
Twenty years after we last saw the Cleaver family in Leave it to Beaver, we revisit them in this CBS TV movie first broadcast March 19, 1983. This was a precursor to what became a revival TV series also called Still the Beaver starting in November 1984 on The Disney Channel that ran for four seasons through June 1989, the last three on WTBS under the name The New Leave it to Beaver.
In this initial TV movie, Beaver (Jerry Mathers) is grown and has two boys of his own but his wife is divorcing him, so he moves back in with his mother June (Barbara Billingsley) at 211 Pine Street in Mayfield (Ward has died about six years earlier). Wally (Tony Dow) is a lawyer married to his high school sweetheart Mary Ellen Rogers (new actress Janice Kent) and they are trying to have children. Eddie Haskell (Ken Osmond) is back and is the same personality as ever, running a shyster construction company, and he has a son (Eddie Jr. - he later was renamed Freddie in the series) who is a chip off the old block (his real-life son Eric Osmond). Friends Lumpy (Frank Bank) and his father Mr. Rutherford (Richard Deacon), Larry (Rusty Stevens), Richard (Richard Correll), and Tooey (Lucas "Luke" Fafara II, aka Tiger) are still around, as is Miss Canfield (Diane Brewster), now principle of the school of the Cleaver grandchildren.
The presentation here is commercial-free due to the ads being edited out from my original Betamax recording of 37 years ago.
Copyright restrictions on RUclips also required shortening some of many clips in this movie from the original Leave it to Beaver series, but every clip from the original series shown by CBS in this movie is still represented here.
Of course, this Still the Beaver movie doesn't offer all the 1950s-era innocent charm of the original but it is filled with touching and fun remembrances, including numerous clips of the classic black-and-white series, especially with father Ward Cleaver (Hugh Beaumont died the year before this movie was made and had been ill for several years prior to that). And there are numerous sweet and nostalgic references to the first series.
Corey Feldman and John Snee play Beaver's sons Corey and Oliver, respectively (Corey was replaced by actor Kipp Marcus as Beaver's oldest son Kip when it went to the series). Eddie and his son (who was renamed Freddie for the series) are two highlights of this movie and the series. Ed Begley Jr. re-creates Whitey, and Joanna Gleason plays Beaver's wife Kimberly (she was replaced by Jeannie Wilson to play Kimberly in the final episode of the series six years later in 1989). When the series started, there were a several cast changes, including a replacement to play Mr. Rutherford in the first couple of episodes since Richard Deacon died. Kaleena Kiff was also added to the cast as Kelly, the daughter of Wally and Mary Ellen.
Beaver walking into his old house along with the voice over of Hugh Beaumont is beautiful. ❤️💔🥰
Tears welling up😥
Made me #PuddleUp.
Right?!?! Talk about tear jerker!
R.I.P. Tony Dow, Barbara Billingsley, and Hugh Beaumont! Thanks for the laughs and the life lessons!
It was the iconic family sitcom
Freddie Martin,
You forgot, Ken Osmond. R . I . P .
I am 12 minutes into the movie and can't stop crying... The old clips and music make me think of home and family.
im glad im not the only emotional one
That's crazy! This movie was released the year I was born, but the show was long before my time. Yet it has me very emotional as well. Likely because the original series was a favorite of my late father. Every time I watch the re-runs, it brings memories of my pop.
The scene with Beaver walking through the house, reminiscing. It was just so moving when it showed Hugh Beaumont from earlier days. Seeing some of the old footage,
and then seeing everyone older here in the movie, with families of their own... hard not to be touched by that.
I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. ❤
Boy, that was a time to remember, wasn't it? Love and miss the 80s😢
This movie definitely brings back fond memories
Rest In Peace Tony Dow
Amen.
And Ken Osmond
@@user-dn7pc4ew8yand Hugh Beumont and Barbara Billingsley.
Since I watched this last, my priorities changed - at 66 I had kidney and respiratory failure, and spent a month away from home and my wife - I faced my own mortality and can no longer put off thinking about death and how none of us get out of this world alive. Make sure when you leave your mortal life and enter eternity, that you do it with Jesus as your savior.
Amen!
Best comment ever!
So true.
THANKS👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙏🏽
People might complain that this doesn't belong here but once a while we need to be reminded.
Amen
True!
It doesn’t belong here. And a mortal man who died approximately 2000 years ago?
Thanks for all the good memories, Tony. Guys like you only come around, once in a lifetime! (April 13, 1945 - July 27, 2022)
The news of Tony Dow's passing brought me here. I was born the year this movie was released, but this is the first time I'm seeing it. I'm a fan of the original TV series, as it brings fond memories of my father. Miss you pop!
R.I.P.
Dad
Tony Dow
This show is popular among people of all ages. My husband and I grew up watching it on television. I've shown it to my boys and they love it too.
Yes. I'm finding out also that people of all ages still love LITB.
It was exactly 40 years ago today this movie first aired. Happy Anniversary.
Those flashback clips integrating with their present dilemma in order to solve their problems was so emotional and done well. There is a satisfaction in knowing what we, as the viewers, have seen in the origins of the show come to a full circle 20 years later when this movie was made, as the boys have now taken on the wisdom of their father being grown men themselves. I like that kind of arch in a story's characters, especially for just a sitcom. I'm glad they decided to do this years later because it meant Ward's lessons were not in vain. And that we get to see the torch being passed on.
In my lifetime I have got to see Jerry Mathers twice, I hope I can get to see him again someday. He's a great actor, I grew up watching Leave It To Beaver
Lucky you!
RIP Tony Dow. Such a good actor. Been watching Leave it to Beaver for a couple of weeks now. Love it.
The part where Beaver walks in the house and Ward says" Is that you beaver? Beaver was just reminiscing about all the memories he had in that house. It reminds me of my family how and how i think now that my mom and dad are gon. All we have is memories and we hold on to them, laugh and cry. What a great show Leave it to beaver is. I watch it daily. I even fall asleep to it😊
They just don't make TV shows like that anymore. I hope that You can preserve it for many years to come.
As a very depressed woman of 21 years, I come from a divorced household and I just hate life so much that I often think of ending it all. The way our world is and the ugly politics of this country makes me sick. The only thing that keeps me going (for now) is tuning into stations like MeTV to see old shows like Beaver, Andy Griffith, My Three Sons, The Rifleman and others. The stuff on TV today should be criminal but sadly represents the times we live in. I truly wish I could have lived back in the 50's which seemed like such a peaceful time with good family values and love of God and country. Thank you for posting this movie Russell, I really enjoy this.
@@radhikapamula4380 I completely understand. The only thing that kept me going last year was revisiting old classic shows that I grew up. It's a comforting feeling to escape back to when life didn't always seem like shit. For my birthday last year I bought the complete series of the original Leave It To Beaver. My fiancé didn't grow up with all the old shows I did (unless he happened to catch them on Nick at Nite - whereas I saw them all as reruns before their shift to cable). But he knew what last year was doing to me and really supported my new addiction of classic TV. Also just got the complete series of Maude and The Jeffersons and have been watching lots of Three's Company (and downloading everything I can think of that will never be on DVD that I wish to revisit). I hope this year brings you some much needed comfort!
@@billwenham I bought the Leave it To Beaver complete series too and someone stole it off our porch before I got home. Is it worth buying again? I read some reviews on Amazon that said it is poor quality and has commercials. Not sure if that's true or not. I have close to 100 Beavers on my DVR but I know someday when it fails, I'll lose them all. I also was going to buy the complete series of either The Rifleman, Adam 12 or Walker Texas Ranger but they are extremely expensive. I do own the complete series of Andy Griffith (not the colored episodes though, YUCK) the complete Everybody Loves Raymond series and the complete Incredible Hulk series with Bill Bixby and also the first four seasons of Dallas with Jock Ewing on it. After he died, I didn't like the show as much. I hope you have a great year too! Oh and btw, I have Season 1 of Leave it to Beaver and I believe the first 2 seasons are the best. I'm a big Larry Mondelo fan and once he left the show I really didn't like Beaver's friends at all. Wally had the better friends, especially Eddie!
@@radhikapamula4380 Now I wish I had never gave away my VCR movie collection, I am almost jealous.
@@radhikapamula4380 It sounds like you were a victim of porch piracy.
I watched the New Leave it to Beaver as a kid. Then my mom was like it was a show when I was a kid and showed me the original. Been watching them for over 30 years now. June always reminds me of my mom...Sweet but firm at the same time
Good movie…Typical 1983 all around with twist.Good to see alot of the actors in this.
Who’s still watching The Beaver in 2024?!!🎉
It aired in 1983.
I was born after this series in '88 Dec and I love LITB! My older brother (b. 1973) said episodes used to air often late at night or on USA network, etc.
Me 🎉 and 2025 too
Barbara Billingsley looked amazing and was sharp as a tack for being almost 70 in the movie.
I watch leave it to beaver every morning
The Beaver still squints his eyes while delivering his script for drama effect. The only actor I can recall that does that. His idiosyncrasy works well for him.
Classic. RIP Barbara Billingsly, Ken Osmond, Frank Bank, Richard Deacon and Hugh Beaumont.
They were the best actors ever
Mikey:
This program and the movie are two forms of being classic.
In the program, "Leave it to Beaver" I remember being taught the same values as Wally and the Beaver.

RIP
Jerry Mathers supposedly was killed in Vietnam...
Barabara had a long life
I like the flashbacks of Ward. nice tribute to Hugh Beaumont who had passed away the year before this reunion movie came out.
This movie was dedicated to the loving memory of Hugh Beaumont and I heard that in one of the TV series' episodes, his real-life sister made a guest appearance.
@@ekweseman , thanks for the info.
Was kind of sad see that Ward had passed away, I didn't see t that coming.
I used to wonder why they had Ward pass away in 1977 as opposed to closer to Hugh Beaumont's actual passing, say 1981 or even 82 when he died. Then I realized the family would still be grief stricken so soon after and the movie would have had too melancholy a feel. The narrative needed that 6 year gap to have allowed the family to move on.
@@ekweseman Hugh's sister guest stars in the thanksgiving episode in the first season of the series revival
Hugh Beaumont was my favorite TV father. I wish my own father had been more like him.
I still watch the original everyday..and I always walk away having learned some type of valuable life lesson from Ward. I still view him as my father. Such a wonderfully understanding father character that I think ONLY Hugh Beaumont could have portrayed in that manner
Nothing wrong with your Daddy.
Cant forget michael landon. I love leave it to beaver as well, robert reed next, brady bunch
My Dad was like him and himself,, always had the right advice when we needed it! I Love and miss him so much! 🤎✝⛪
Yeah. Let’s not forget he was a TV character meant to embody the perfect father.
Very nice that they added the dedication to Hugh Beaumont at the end of the credits.
One of the best shows ever
This is the only tv reboot that I can watch. Same role characters. RIP Tony! The cast will be missed. We appreciate the cast reuniting 20 years later! RIP Tony!
Lord have mercy 10 minutes into the movie and I'm already tearing up. RIP WARD
Yeah that kinda got to me as well. For some reason I thought about my mom who I lost in 2021.
died of a heart attack in Germany visiting his son.
I remember the old TV Guide. It was such a great TV guide until all the cable channels were born and TV guide went history.
There was a closet at the top of the steps before,I remember Mrs Cleaver opening the door in one episode and an accordion falling out and rolling down the stairs,and she says.. Ward it's accordion!and he replys yes we've already determined that dear,I still laugh when I watch that scene 😄
I miss network movies of the week. Was such a novelty
Yeh, the ABC TV Movie of the week, or ABC Tuesday Night Movie. and they had good well known actors in them! Todays TV is really bad.
there's barely a handful of TV shows worth watching. Maybe " _Young Sheldon_ " you know what I watch theses days and LOVE THEM!::
There's many more but, I just kind of listed a few favorites:

Rest Peacefully Hugh. Barbara... Ken.. We're still watching.
My dad passed away 2 years ago,he got me hooked on the show when I was a kid,the part when beaver walks in and hears is dad really got to me 😢
sorry for your loss. lost my dad 10 yrs ago and miss him
@@germanshepherd13 I know the feeling..I miss mine every day and night. Im a newbie to the club noone wants to belong to..my condolences to you both.
I love the flashbacks....showing their Father. Sadly Hugh Beaumont had passed away in 1982 the year before this reunion movie came out in 1983.
Principal photography of "Still The Beaver" took place in 1982, only months after Hugh Beaumont died.
Leave it to Beaver was alwasy one of my favorite shows.
I wonder how many of you know that Ken Osmond, the actor that plays Eddie, became a Los Angeles police officer after being unable to find any rolls after being typecast as Eddie Haskell.
Anyways he was shot in the line of duty three times by an escaping suspect: two went into his bulletproof vest and one went around the vest where there wasn't any protection but he survived.
I had no idea, I just learned this a month ago and blew my mind!
When Ken Osmond passed away, Jerry Mathers made a beautiful statement in honor of him. He described Ken as the best actor on the show, because in real life, he was nothing like Eddie Haskell.
A story about him was aired on the old TV show emergency 911 telling about how he got shot!
I met him along with Frank Bank about 15 years ago. They were both very nice guys and never gave me the business.
@@Jeff98177 good one, Jeff.....did Eddie say to you "Hey, Sam, you're a squirt!"
@@essessessesq Maybe :-) In the picture of the three of us, he had his hand draped on my shoulder like he would do with Wally sometimes.
I was babysitting the night this was broadcast and made the kids watch this with me. It was a little embarrassing because I actually began crying at the scene at Ward Cleaver’s gravesite. I was caught by surprise at how deeply the loss of Hugh Beaumont and the place he held within the program affected me.
Yeah, me too.
Beaver remembering his father always hits hard.
Cute show.
Especially if you’ve lost your dad...I don’t blame beaver for having that reaction and reverting to a childish state to cope with it all.
RIP Tony Dow. Best big brother in the world
Thank you so much for uploading this movie! I never saw it when it came out and I actually just found out that it was made tonight! What an excellent movie! They did a nice job keeping to the original theme and showing what a family should be!!! I wish life was still as simple and pure as life with the Beaver was!
You're very welcome!
Honestly here, Beaver is a tragic character. He’s grieving the loss of his beloved dad and that is causing him to revert to his old behavior that he had as a kid. Breaks my heart honestly.
I can relate 😔
Agreed. Honestly I don't find this movie funny. Poor Beaver.
Thanks so much for posting the reunion movie for the original series, which I still enjoy. I watched "Still the Beaver" when it first aired on CBS and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was great watching June, Wally, the Beaver, and their family circle adjust to life in the 1980s, but it moved me to tears (as it still does) to see the movie travel back to the 1950s and '60s to pay tribute to Ward. Surely, June was a nurturing and calming presence for Wally and Beaver, but it was Ward who provided a foundation and a moral compass to help the boys meet life's challenges. And he didn't even hesitate to discipline his sons when it counted. RIP to Barbara Billingsley, Hugh Beaumont, Tony Dow, and most of the supporting actors associated with both the original series and the 1983 movie. Glad Jerry Mathers is still with us:)
I used to watch Leave It To Beaver everyday after school in the 70’s & 80’s. It was truly a wholesome family show. Am sad that Tony Dow died today. You’ll be missed.
In memory of Hugh Beaumont.
What I do like is the lovely ending. June Cleaver, so very, very famous and so under-rated. Always so wry, gentle, smart and savvy, but bowing to her place in time when she raised her family. That knowing wink in her eye! It is such a meloncoly thing to see June shipping herself off to a Leasure World, but this is the order of life. Reciting off her long time list of accomplishments as the mistress of the Cleaver house is so touching. Nobody did it better. In your audience's hearts forever...
Aww.. Poor the Beav. This is really making me feel nostalgic. MIss the Cleavers. Rest in Peace Tony, Barbara, and Hugh!
Brings back so many memories. Thanks for posting...
Always Loved Leave It To Beaver. Still watching it today at 53. Tv for the last 40 years is nothing but trash. May all the cast who past away Rest in Peace in God's Kingdom.
No matter what age you are, most people feel the the shows you grew up with were the best and everything that comes later is trash. You say the last 40 years but that would include this Still The Beaver/New Leave it to Beaver revival series, which I enjoy, though not as much as original. And although I love the original Leave it to Beaver and many other series of the 1950s and 60s, I also think there have been many other great series in each decade since then, including Downtown Abbey just a few years ago.
The original series was brilliant….each episode was a little morality play…each episode a gentle and humorous lesson for life.
yes, you summed the show up just right! and Ward was a very human and imperfect, but good father figure
I loved the original Leave it to Beaver. I wish they would have continued the show with the Beaver in high school and Wally and Eddie in college. I loved all the characters, but Eddie Haskel was pure genius comedy. I was saddened by his death. He still makes me laugh. What a wonderful show.
Eddie was great, so over the top! as for Beavr, he was an awkward teen so they decided to close the series
That was a surprisingly (for an 80's movie) touching tribute to Ward Cleaver
yes, Beaver show was a refreshing change from the usual "Father is an Idiot" sitcom plots
I was born in 72 but leave it to beaver was a fave of mine.. This movie is awesome
Barbara Billings always had the best hair…before extensions. Such a classy lady.
Yessss! I absolutely love her!
I agree and she always wore her pearls even to cook and clean.
Actually, she wore them to cover a scar on her neck. I heard this on an interview with her. 😉@@danielwade434
I grew up watching Leave to the Beaver ,grandfather and grandmother, mom and dad, little brothers and sisters iam 54 right now...
RIP Tony Dow. You will never be forgotten.
I wish this film would get scanned for blu ray or even dvd. I'm sure there are many fans out there that would purchase it.
Yes, many fans would enjoy that, but it's a 41 year-old TV movie that is in legal ownership limbo and would take more money to sort it all out, scan it, upscale it for Blu-ray or even DVD, and then distribute and market it, than it would likely generate in sales since the market for DVDs has shrunk so much in the past 15 years
I just binged all six seasons and I’m sad it’s over. I never watched the show before in my childhood. Great show and I learned so much from the dad with his wisdom
When you say all six seasons, you must be referring to the original black and white TV series of the 1950s-60s. If you want to see more, this reunion TV movie sparked four more seasons of 100 episodes, all of which I have here at my channel since they have never been released on DVD or streaming and haven't been seen in reruns or anywhere else in more than 30 years.
I STILL LOVE THIS SHOW....WATCHING ON CABLE OLD SCHOOL TV......STILL 2022......MY ERA.....MY YOUTH.....GREAT LIFE THEN.....MY FAMILY LIKE THEM.....MOM - DAD - DINNERS....STORIES......WONDERFUL TIMES......!!!
You're probably referring to watching the original black-and-white TV series Leave it to Beaver. This color 1980s revival series has not been seen or available anywhere for 30 years, which is why I posted this 1983 CBS pilot TV movie and all 101 episodes of the series here on RUclips
@Muse Muser Yep, the original series is on FETV four times every weekday and twice on MeTV every weekeday. But this video and all 101 episodes of this series I have posted here are about the 1980s revival series Still the Beaver and The New Leave it to Beaver, plus dozens of videos I have here featuring the cast promoting the 1980s series on various shows. I do also have about 100 other videos here relating to cast members and the original series
@@shettrick thank you Scott!!!
Thanks for sharing, I use to run home after school and watch Leave it to Beaver. Them were some great days in America.
I still can't believe Lumpy calls his dad "Daddy", still he's such a daddy's boy
Ryan Lee I think that’s the joke...
Well I know of plenty of people that age who still call their fathers that.
@@jahimjauh-hey5653 Yeah, that's how we know it's really Lumpy.
@@markcraven8386
Lumpy reminds me of the kid on Young Sheldon.
I remember seeing every single episode of: "Leave it to Beaver" whenever I was much younger and boy did I enjoy watching it very much.
Please think positive at all times. ©®

I can't believe with my own two eyes that Wally and the Beaver are the two remaining actors of: "Leave it to Beaver" or "Still leave it to Beaver".
Please do enjoy this day to its max. ©®

I remember watching this at the time I was only 12 at the time. I never got to watch a rerun. No DVRs back then. Brings back good memories.
RIP Ken Osmond
.My eldest son Brian D Smith told me before he died in December 9 2021 like vex that show! He learned alot from Beaver Cleaver and e joyed the show.
Rest in peace 👑Tony Dow and 👑Eddie Hascal 🙏

Always remembered the soundtrack was groundbreaking for a TV movie. Lots of hits.
Thank you for posing this movie. I think a lot of people can relate to the Beaver.
RIP Hugh, Barbara, Tony, Frank, Ken and Richard.
So sad... loved watching this as a kid
This show was dedicated to Hugh Beaumont he died year before this came out.
I miss the old TV guide. It used to be great.
Me too❗☹
Damn ..20 yrs later Tony Dow STILL HOT 🔥....
I’m just here to see who the lucky girl is who got to marry Wally. 😂😂😂

RIP Tony Dow. 😭💔
@12:12 Sad Moment. Rest in Heaven Hugh Beaumont/Ward Cleaver.
This made me cry.
Miss him a lot in this ...
Heartbreaking that Tony Dow is passing, it was reported early this morning he had passed but then corrected that he is still alive but not doing well. I watched Leave It to Beaver when I was young and today I still watch it every morning at 8 am and 8:30 am really bothering me about Tony getting ready to pass away.. God Bless you Tony and family and Jerry Mathers "The Beaver"
RIP Tony. Thanks for the entertainment.
"Three more converts and I'll get a mattress."
LLMMAAAOOOOO!!! That cracked me up!
Larry is trying to convert his old friend Beaver to the Hindu faith.
Jerry much better actor as a child. almost painful to watch him but the others were good. thx for sharing!!
Yeah. He tried way too unnecessarily hard to relive the young beaver. It was hard to watch.
Ending dedicated to the memory of Hugh Belmont got me rate there sad great tv dad 😢
#1 TV dad along with Tim Allen on Home Improvement...
Life looked better black & white.
More time has passed since this movie was made than between it and the end of the original series.
Must be really hard to do this show without " *Hugh Beaumont* ".. He really was the backbone of the family. He would've gave Beaver advice on Child Custody! Hes sadly Missed! 😢
Gary Chambers , I agree sadly Hugh Beaumont passed away the year before the reunion movie came out.
Yes, Ward certainly would have given Beaver parenting advice father to father. He would have been a doting Grandpa to his grandchildren.
Ward would have told Beaver think twice about getting married.
@@schallrd1 Ward probably saw something about Kimberly he didn't like and thought Beaver deserved better.
Thanks for posting this. I grew up watching the original show ever day at lunch and I remember watching this movie when it came out but i haven't seen it since. Great memories!
This was really good. I recall watching this when it came out.
I have seen this movie over 3 times and I just love it. It brings back so many memories for me. I am now much older. Wally is just one year older than me. Meet him in person 4 years ago. He is still very handsome. Just love this show. 😍😍💘💘💘🙂🙂
R.I.P. You will truly be missed. ALOHA Tony Dow alias Wally Cleaver.

Thanks for the laughs Tony!
Rest Easy Tony! Thanks fir for the laughs & memories.
How did 1983 get so far away from us? It was ULTRA-MODERN times! Now it's loooong ago, in the mists of time and golden memories. Most of the people I loved then, have been gone for quite a while. I remember by 83, I already missed the 70s so much by then. To me the 70s were ridiculously awesome. Early-mid 80s were only good, because we just had the 70s!
That's funny you said that; I used to see it that way too- as "ultra modern" times....
The 80s were better than the 70s.
Thank you!!! What more can I say but thank you for uploading these. I am in the UK but the legend of Beaver is far and wide and I just got done watching the original show. I couldn't watch this when it originally aired but watching it now brings back great memories of growing up in the 80s and 90s. It was a different world, a simpler time and one I really miss. It is nice to relive it a little watching this now :)
It doesn't get any better than the Beav! Thank you for sharing and God bless all from Patrick
Wow! You included the TV Guide Close up...I’d all but forgotten about those! I used to love “the Guide”! As a matter of fact, my dad has a collection of Fall Preview issues dating back to the early 60s!
I’d also pretty much forgotten the opening to CBS Saturday Night Movies! Very cool, sir!
Just like Frank Costanza
I’m glad I watched this. I saw it many years ago when I was a kid and watch the show every week on MeTV. Ward was always my favorite tv dad.
I used to watch MeTV every morning. They had the cartoon show then Leave it to 🦫Beaver🦫. Since we dumped Cable-TV and began using a digital antenna, there were quite a few decent channels. Sadly though over the last year or two, those really good channels were changed. Now where MeTV was they dumped MeTV and swapped IonTV, and where IonTV was now has Defy & Grit and then THREE QVC/Home Shopping network channels! Oh boy! MeTV had some amazing programs, classic 📺TV📺shows that many of us grew up watching, or spent years watching the syndicated re-runs. I really enjoyed that channel. Every season change we seem to get a "new" 📺TV📺station lineup. And so far they've been horrible! We lost another good channel and got another QVC type Shopping channel, this one for jewelry, jewels, rings, and other "accessories". Again, YIPPEE!
I watch it also on MeTv comes on 7am to 8am.
All Garage scenes their was always a ARMY marmite Can....happy to say while in service I acquired one 45 years ago....and still have it...life time cooler...fan of the beav

I remember when I was a kid my family and I watch this TV movie thank you for the Memories I miss the 1980s
Thank You For keeping our family laugh ( for all the passed years ) 👍👌✌💋❤💙📺👱😛😗😋😎
Such an awesome movie! Thanks for uploading this! Those were the good old days! May the deceased all RIP. I grew up with this show!
The Movie is kind of sad. But ends up happy. Just sad most of them passed away now.
True - Great memories 😔
Reminds me when I got a divorce went back home with Mom a while with my two kids you can always count on mom they are wonderful
So sorry -I hope things are better and yes Most Moms are Wonderful 😔
