I LOVED this show and grew up with it. Where some shows from that time can be so painful to re-watch, Leave it to Beaver holds up pretty well. I especially liked the soup episode. One of my favorite characters was Gus. Thank you for this and Merry Christmas.🎄
One thing that I noticed was The kid's bedroom placement. The bathroom would occupy the space at the end of the second floor hallway as the entry doors are about six feet apart on the same side. Also. When the bathroom door is closed, the mirror hanging over the desk between the doors shakes in a way that indicates that wall is a single sheet of plywood versus a solid wall. It oscillates. The interior panel isn't connected to anything but corner anchors. I question the structural integrity of the Cleaver home.
Even though this show was way before my time. I enjoyed watching the reruns. I had a crush on June Cleaver. "Anyone speak Jive ? I speak Jive" ! Hilarious 😆
Candy Moore is the actress in Mother’s Helper, who also appeared as Lucille Ball’s daughter in the first three seasons of The Lucy Show and was married to actor Paul Gleason, who played the assistant principal Richard Vernon in the 1985 John Hughes movie, The Breakfast Club.
5:52 Actually that's a checkered "Newsboy Hat" Derby's had an all around brim and a dome crown. 🤓😎✌🏼I oughtta know, I just watched "The Kurwood Derby" caper on Rocky and Bullwinkle!
Right, I get my hats mixed up. I should have remembered that. I've been watching Laurel and Hardy off and on lately. Derby was the first word that popped out my head. Thanks 😀
This was one my favorite videos here, there's something about seeing a show like Leave It To Beaver have so many bloopers that is just funnier then most others. Also I did get those prices right, but I wasn't born until 1968, so I just know how much cheaper things were even in the 1970s and 80s, I figured the movie tickets would be pretty cheap back then, and the groceries, I figured either the $23.86 or the $12.15, but leaned towards the first one, since there were two bags.
As far as I can guess, the Cleaver's live in New York. In one episode, Beaver aproches Richard Rickover at a street side bench, Rich informa Beaver he won't go home until he spots an out of state license plate. And when he does, it's New Jersey, which, as we all know, is just south of N.Y. In the episode were the Cleavers and the Ruthafords are on a pic-nic together, Mr.Ruthaford is wearing a New York Yankees ball cap.
Wow, great catch on that letter content!! Yes, they really had a great sense of humor back then.... Thanks as always for your outstanding observations on all these classic shows.
Definitely learned about a lot things I never knew or saw when viewing the series back as a kid. That letter was awesome. Great humor putting that one together. Small correction. In the ending clip, Beaver gets stuck in a soup bowl, not a can. It's a possibility that the town is right next door to Mayberry, and Andy changed his name to Floyd when moving to the new location. It is a bit odd that Howard was typecast as the same character before being so well known as Floyd the Barber, AND, that he was called "Andy".
That makes sense maybe Andy Floyd was in a relocation program and Andy Taylor was assigned to protect him from some criminal types. I do wonder if anybody that worked on the Andy Griffith Show knew about Floyd's appearance on Leave it to Beaver.
Hugh Beaumont appeared in an episode of Jeff's Collie (Lassie), also playing a good guy. He also was in a Ford sales short in the early 50s showing a rookie car salesmam how to sell cars. Beaver and Wally appeared in at least one car commercial for the 1960 Fords. An interesting read, if you can find it, is The World According to Beaver by author Irving Applebaum. It has a lot if interesting facts about the show and info on the main characters. BTW, my mother tried cutting our hair once and only once. There's a reason people go to barber school.
Merry Christmas Tvcrazyman! Leave It to Beaver is one of my favorite shows even though it started airing before my mother was born. I got several good laughs out of this video. I always wished that Eddie Haskel would have gotten arrested on the show for all of the horrible things he did, it would have taught a valuable lesson to all the characters in the show and people watching at home.
I think Ward is a CPA or a civil engineer. I base civil engineer on the fact that during WWII he told the boys he built airstrips and other things for the war effort. Mayfield is located somewhere between Los Angles and San Fransisco California. I base that on the fact that we never see snow, but people do wear jackets on a regular basis and it does get cold. Also, on the roller coaster episode, before they set out for the park, you can see the breath of the actors. It was obvioulsy cold that morning when they filmed the scene.
After I finished the video and uploaded it my wife said she saw a California plate on Ward's car. I'll have to go and look for it later. But, of course that's probably due to the fact they filmed it in California.
Yes that is the Munster's house. It was built in 1947 for the movie So Goes My Love. And up until the Munsters looked basically how you see there. For The Munsters they changed it to make it look spooky. It remained somewhat looking that way until the 80s when it was painted red and slightly refurbished because it had become run down. Then sometime in the late '80s it was painted blue and used in a lot of movies and TV shows including the 1989 movie The 'Burbs as Corey Feldman's house. The last series it was used for was Desperate Housewives. It was remodeled to no longer look like the munster's house because the producers didn't want it to look like The Munsters house. It's on Colonial Street at Universal. Google it and you can see how it looked over the years from the first time it was made up till now.
In season 6 I think episode 1 Junes hair length changes to long to short.After all these years I never knew season 6 had different intro music. Thanks for a excellent presentation
I enjoy your videos! This was a good one because I’m a fan of the show, I knew most of these, but was surprised by some. Like Eddie doing that thing with his hands! I didn’t know Hugh Beaumont had been on the Lone Ranger! I noticed how in some episodes they have a TV in Ward’s den but usually it’s just a globe.. And because there were usually several episodes in between where they needed a TV it was usually a completely different TV set!
If you listened to Gunsmoke on the radio you would know that Andy killed a man in a bar fight so he changed his name to Floyd and moved from Mayfield to Mayberry.
Hugh Beaumont was my #1 dad. I was always astounded that the boy's room had a separate full bathroom set up just for their room. Amazing for back then. My parents finally had a separate bathroom built that was right off Their bedroom. The letter contents was hilarious as the needed prop.
I’m pretty sure this was never shown in the UK. Looks pretty good tho. Once again the stuff you spot is amazing! That letter had me in stitches. Brilliant! 🤣
Happy holidays, TVcrazyman! I don't always comment on your videos, but I enjoy every one of them that I've seen. So many of these channels purporting to be about TV history are run in a pretty slapdash manner, with very little research (if any) and A.I. narration, and many of them are produced in non-English speaking countries by people who've never even seen the shows or the stars they're trying to tell us about.. At least if you mispronounce a name, we know you're not some kind of robot or computer. Thanks for what you do, and the best to you and yours in the coming year!
Thanks, I appreciate that. Narration is one thing that I feel A.I. just doesn't work as well. Some of those videos seem to say the same thing over and over again in different ways. No soul. Thanks, again, and have a Happy New Year!
I’m enjoying these moments caught by some very eagle-eyed viewers. How about making a video about the sequel series to several of these shows two decades later. Examples: The Munsters, Gidget, Leave It to Beaver, The Twilight Zone.
I've been thinking about the new Twilight Zone for a while. I have to get copies of the shows on DVD or online though to go through them. I've got the 80s Twilight Zone right now. I haven't seen the new Leave it to Beaver since the 80s. That might be fun to watch again.
@ Before the move, I had several discs of the New Leave It to Beaver. They were quite daring in their stories. I remember the one with Eddie Haskell having a mid-life crisis and starting a band. There’s one with one of the kids just exploring love with a party phone line. Another was a musical. The one that impressed me the most was the one where Wally gets into a motorcycle accident and flashes through clips from the new and old series. However, the order of the clips was a progression from indecision about continuing to live towards being brave. It even included color footage of a young Wally and his father teaching him to be brave and swim in the pool.
This was the first R rated sitcom. It happened thusly: June Cleaver said the following: "You were a little hard on the Beaver last might weren't you Ward."
That's a good one. That show has some real spooky episodes and some that just really make you wonder if it is real or not. My favorite I think is the one with George Washington.
I think Ward says when Wally and beaver are looking through his trunk. I believe Ward says he was a civil engineer one of the episodes. He says he was I’m pretty sure.
The awful haircut had company. I got up on a Sunday morning and gave myself a haircut. It was bad. Mom gave me a short butch and saved my day. It was very buzzy to the max. Never did it again. Should have gotten a photo taken.

Great video. Loved this show & to me Ward Cleaver will always be the # 1 tv dad.
Great video about a great show. I watched it as a kid and I still watch the reruns occasionally.
Thanks
I hope you all get a laugh or two from the goofs and find the trivia for Leave it to Beaver interesting!😀 Merry Christmas!
.. this one was great 👍 ..

WOW Great Catch on ALL that !
You the Man !
The Beav show was great and you did it so well !
Thank you, I appreciate it!
Merry Christmas to you too. Beaver was one of my favorites. Good principles. Thanks
I appreciate it
We watch it today on me TV.
It reminds me of growing up
back in those days. 😊
That letter is hilarious. It must have been fun being the prop guy who made that! Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
my favorites episodes were the credit card and the soup bowl episode

Mayfield had one of the top cloning labs. That’s why all the kids looked the same at the theater

Well, you did it again! You really completely amazed me!
Great job brother!

I like your videos and short commentaries and pleasant, calm, not speedy jacked-up voice!

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU & THANKS FOR THE NOSTALGIA. Happy New Year too. 2025 🎉

What an awesome holiday treat❤ ty TCM
You're welcome! Have a great holiday!
Thanks & Merry Christmas
You too! I appreciate it
If Mayfield is close to Freeport, my guess is that it's in the Bahamas. That might explain how it's 20 miles from a beach.
10:55 Imagine being an actor typecasted as a barber the rest of your career 😂
its type cast.
no need for the -ed
Yeah, there are some actors I've noticed that would rotate types of roles but gravitate to certain occupations like cops or detectives.
If you listened to Gunsmoke on the radio you would know that Andy killed a man in a bar fight so he changed his name to Floyd and moved from Mayfield to Mayberry.
Hugh Beaumont was my #1 dad. I was always astounded that the boy's room had a separate full bathroom set up just for their room. Amazing for back then. My parents finally had a separate bathroom built that was right off Their bedroom. The letter contents was hilarious as the needed prop.
That's true for back then, they would have probably been considered very wealthy.
3:25 Maybe She's looking back longingly at Batman because She OBVIOUSLY just came down from upstairs via The Batpole! 🤓😎✌🏼
6:48 Yeah! Five DOLLARS??? Sheriff Taylor would have an apolexy if He had to give Opie that much just for a movie!
It even looks like that letter with the address at the top reads
Mayfield, State
If I'm reading that correctly.
Little known fact - TV Crazy Man was a neighbor of the Cleavers. He and the Beaver didn't get along, so he wasn't on the show.
How did you know? I tried keeping that a secret for decades.🤔😀
@@tvcrazyman Eddie ratted you out.
Loved This!
Merry Christmas and thanks for the video!
Thank you! Merry Christmas! I appreciate it.
I still watch this show, it’s usually on Tubi free
11:16 Why would that be odd? Wally wouldn't want one of those...Mt. Pilot haircuts.
3:50 also you never see a rear view mirror in the tv cars.
And the rear glass of the Plymouth was removed, due to reflection
The rear window of the Plymouth, car, was removed to stop reflection. Seen in opening of show when backing out of driveway
Loved this vid.. merry Xmas 🎄
Thanks and Merry Christmas to you too!
Wall’s ’Orchard’ is actually Orchid.
..Hugh Beaumont was a lay minister in the Methodist Church ..
He also played Mike Shayne P.I. in 5 movies before Beaver.
You made a Goof talking about a Goof- The title of the episode is "Wally's Orchid" not "Wally's Orchard" Believe It Or Not....
I’m pretty sure this was never shown in the UK. Looks pretty good tho. Once again the stuff you spot is amazing! That letter had me in stitches. Brilliant! 🤣
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it.
That was good
I like the address on the letter saying, Mayfield, State.
My wifand I are watching through the series. On high def you can see shadows if the boom mic in a lot of scenes.
I always wanted Hugh Beaumont to be my dad. Nothing wrong with my real dad but I thought Mr. Beaumont was so good looking.
