www.genesiscreations.biz Ken Osmond (Eddie Haskell from Leave it to Beaver) is interviewed by Bill O'Reilly for the TV Icon segment on the O'Reilly Factor.
As the Leave it to Beaver series progressed, Kenny's sassy (and even his sycophantic) delivery got better and better. He's still a breath of fresh air.
Him being typecast is indicative of the amazing acting job he did in that role. Like Brando IS Don Corleone, Ken Osmond IS Eddie Haskel. He should be proud of that. Not many actors get to nail a role like that.
What a squared away well spoken man...even wounded in the line of duty...and to think he played Eddie Haskell...I have such fond memories of that show as a kid.
love him. it's nice to see he turned out to be such an honorable and upstanding citizen. far from what people would assume from his Eddie Haskell portrayal. just makes you realize what a fine actor he really was/is.
So sorry to hear of Ken's passing. I never had the pleasure to meet Mr. Osmond but if I had, I would have said thanks for being a part of my youth. Thankyou for the laughs, and most of all, God Bless! Just one of the greats of his time. Rest in peace, Ken. And thanks again.
Since the show started in 1957, it was really a reflection of the first half of the 1960s. Take it from someone who saw the show when it was new and lived through that era.
Loved when he would call Wally 'Gertrude'. Like "Take it easy Gertrude" and then the classic Eddie laugh. One of the best characters in tv history. Obviously he got typecast because he played the part brilliantly.
Being typecast is a real compliment because you play a role so well and so believable that people see you as that character. In fact I just heard he passed away today and I texted a friend and said “Eddie Haskell died today”. I also belive it’s harder to avoid typecasting from a long running TV show than a movie. Sounds like producers never gave him much of an opportunity to prove otherwise. I mean, Tom Hanks IS Forrest Gump but he followed that up with so many iconic roles to the point he is perhaps our generation’s greatest actor.
Whenever I see reruns of Beaver, I am so happy when I see "Eddie." My parents loved the show. I wish I had been around to see it when it was a popular show.
@@susanb2015. Wow, strong words to someone you never met in person . She might have become one of your best friends. I hope no one judges YOU so impulsively. I guess I'm judging you now. Because ro me, you are presenting yourself as a rude, jealous jerk.
As old as the show is its still very popular. Its one show that has never stopped. The re-runs have been going since the show ended and are on TV two times weekdays
It's still a popular show. I've watched it when I was little. I watched it in my teens. I watched it in my 20s. Then there was The New Leave It To Beaver in the 80s, and I recorded every single episode. And I am still watching it on tv every morning. It's a classic and will never die. RIP Barbara Billingsly, Frank Bank and Ken Osmond.
NO ONE on television played their part better than Ken Osmond. I was born in 1949 and "Leave It To Beaver" was one of my favorite shows. I've heard rumors that when the show was cancelled in 1963 there was talk of a 'Eddie Haskell' spin-off, but for some reason it didn't come to fruition. Too bad too because it probably would have been a big hit. Just about everyone in the country knew 'Eddie', and most of 'em couldn't get enough of his character.
not to sound creepy, but Ken Osmond is still so handsome, he aged really well! He looks exactly the same. Ken was also in an episode of the Munsters! He played a frat boy, he was so cute. He was soooooo cute during his younger years, there's a kid I grew up with that is totally his twin, needless to say, everyone had the biggest crush on him all throughout grade school!
LITB was one of the greatest TV programs in history, it captured America at that era perfectly, like the movie American Graffiti it captured a time that will never be seen again, Mr. Haskell portrayed Eddie perfectly, everyone knew someone like him in school, love live Leave it to Beaver, I still watch the reruns when they are on !!
As someone else alluded to, EVERYONE knew an Eddie Haskell growing up. "Hey Wally, no way is your little squirt brother coming to the movies with us......oh, hello Mrs. Cleaver! I was just telling Wallace now nice it would be if Theodore could come to the movies with us." Priceless.
Ken Osmond's Eddie Haskell was way ahead of his time....While every other character on the show was typical 50's/60's goody goody two shoes. Eddie was much more relatable as a wise-cracking, prankster...He was by far the most beloved character apart from the Cleaver family...He was one of a kind, and has never been duplicated since....RIP Ken!
Saying he made the show is little a strong the fact is that everyone worked so well together the cast and behind the scene people probably not to many egos got in the way which made for a great show
I allways enjoyed Eddies character on the show. He really made it fun to see all the pranks he would pull on everybody. Without his character the show would have been to dull and 50s. But all the actors really did a fantastic job. Always saddened not to see them on TV after the show ended. Big mistake by Hollywood in my opinion.
I'm glad Ken Osmond cleared something up in this interview. I just very recently read that when he was in the LAPD he was struck by five bullets. But, he said here it was only three bullets.
I always was thrilled by how Eddie was always so polite to Ward and June and such a wise guy to beaver and his friends loved leave it to beaver and I have the complete collection of the show on DVD, Rip Ken osmond Eddie Haskell will be loved forever
@NCISFAN1954 I met Ken a few years ago. Really nice guy. He and Frank Bank were at an antiques show in Tacoma WA. I had my camera with me and got some pictures of the three of us together.
ME🙋🏾♀️ Imagine someone getting pulled over by Officer Haskell for speeding,during the 1970s. He walks over towards the window and the person looks out the window. Saying HEY aren't you Eddie Haskell from Leave It To Beaver😂
If the show had run a little longer Eddie (Ken Osmond) more than likely would have had a spin off of his own show. It's a sin he didn't. It would have been a big hit. It wasn't until the 70's where there were spin off of shows. Not taking anything away from the others but Eddie made that show what it was.
Weren't Petticoat Junction and Green Acres spin-offs of The Beverly Hillbillies? I'd have watched an Eddie Haskell show. I'd still be watching the reruns now. I've heard that Eddie started as a one-off appearance, but Osmond brought so much to the character, they kept him.
A lot of popular actors have had spinoffs that didn't work. Flo (kiss my grits), the Roper's, Fish( Barney Miller), and Joey (Friends) come to mind. Some characters are only successful in small doses. What if they had made shows like Lumpy Rutherford Gymnast, Barney Fife Sheriff of Mount Pilot, Edith Bunker Hotel clerk, Mr. Haney Salesman Of the Year, or Wilbur Post the Jockey LOL
An Eddie Haskell spinoff could've worked, and one was being prepared in 1963 when LITB ended. It would've followed Eddie having to join the Marine Corps after getting into trouble with the law. As they were preparing the pilot, they discovered that Andy Griffith was spinning off Gomer Pyle with almost the exact same premise, so they cancelled the Eddie Haskell series. It was kind of a shame, as everyone expected Ken Osmond to go far, but like everyone else on the show he ended up typecast for the rest of his life.
just seeing this clip I remember when this originally aired always been a Ken Osmond AKA Eddie Haskell fan but I do miss Bill O'Reilly I'll say that I missed the show!!!!!
He was a wonderful actor. Loved how he would call Wally “Clyde”, “Gertrude”, etc. There was a touching episode where Eddie moved into his own apartment. He acted like he was living the high life, but his place was a mess and he was lonely and got a dog. Lurene Tuttle played his concerned landlady.
Big fan here. Played the wise guy perfectly and convincingly. At times, I'd feel sorry for him. He was the guy in the group who had nothing to contribute, so he'd do anything to get noticed.
Oh !! How sad I am it was one of my favorite program for years I would not miss it , I was about fifteen when I use to wait to begin watching all the family and I do remember Him very well .resthe in Peace.
I believe the reason the Eddie character was so successful is that he was believable. Every kid knew someone at least a bit like Eddie. He was a smoozing, wise-ass, duplicitous, selfish charmer - but a VERY funny one. I'm sure Eddie must have gone into sales!
Eddie Haskell was quite possibly the slimiest conniver to slither across the small screen until J.R. Ewing and Creed Bratton later joined his unholy trinity. I love that Ken Osmond doesn't resent the character that gave him a bit of fame and money. There is nothing worse that child stars who do nothing but complain about the role that gave them success. Great interview!
I am so happy that Eddie continued to be successful. I miss him when he isnt on the episode. He makes me smile and when he is peeping out the window at his house, it is so sweet. We get to see the side of Eddie who is timid and precious. Thank you so very much! Ken, you will always be a star in that cast! I watch it every day and buy it on apple 🍏 so i always can watch. I am 71 and you and the whole show make me laugh more than ever! Thank you for being so great an Actor!!!❤ always … Cheri B
Thank you Ken for providing me with so many laughs as a kid, I still watch Beaver today and relate to Eddie. I'm sorry that you got type cast, but surely understand how it happened. The show provided me with such a comforting escape from a troubled childhood. I still remember getting angry with the parents asking why they couldn't be more like the Cleavers, they usually responded with something like "why can't you kids be more like Wally and Beaver".... Thanks again, your hard work meant a lot to so many, please say hi to "Lumpy" also, he was great as well.
Eddie Haskell kept me in stitches. TV Land use to play re-runs of the show but I haven't seen an episode in years. They need to go back to their original format and show all the 1950's sitcoms.
@NCISFAN1954 Yes, it was called The New Leave It To Beaver and ran for three seasons. Ken was in it, of course, and his real-life son played his son on the show. Preceding that was a reunion movie called Still The Beaver. It was filmed not long after Hugh Beaumont (Ward) passed away.
@@BonnieVent I'm reading Ken's autobiography. I am almost done with it. I am a slow reader. :) It is a great book and I highly recommend it. It really saddens me that he passed away while I am reading it. It really hits home for me. :(
I wonder if the person who shot him knew he shot Eddie Haskell.... Also, Bill is wrong. I'm a millennial, and I have the hugest crush on Eddie Haskell. I think he's the funniest part of Leave it to Beaver.

Eddie Haskell is one of the most hilarious television characters of all time. Nobody could have played him better than Ken did.
Ok Gertrude

So true!
Ken Osmond had the most complicated and challenging role to play and did so well we all believed it.
one of the greatest characters in TV history.
This guy was and still is AWESOME!!!
Thank you, Ken Osmond, for bringing us so much joy on Leave it to Beaver, and living such a great life! Rest in peace.
You're welcome Patricia and thank you!

True roll model
RIP Ken Osmond....Thank you for entertaining so many different generations.
Thank you bospicks!
Loved everything about that show. The 50's was probably my favorite decade and definitely the most innocent decade and a great time to be a child.
Since the show started in 1957, it was really a reflection of the first half of the 1960s. Take it from someone who saw the show when it was new and lived through that era.
Yes it's was I wish I had the quantum leap accelerator so I could send Joe Biden back to that ear to try and run for president 🤣🤣🤣
Eddie Haskell. The punk everybody loved to hate. Ken Osmond did fantastic acting performance portraying the character.
Underground Warrior. ,0
I would have still given him a pink belly.

I love Eddie Haskell! He was the best trouble maker on T.V. that never did any harm to anyone! Ken Osmond was very entertaining as Eddie Haskell!
He was the Classic Creep but in a good funny way! Thanks for the laughs Ken. You will be missed! Condolences to the Osmond family.🙏
Thank you Joseph!
Eddie was the main reason I watched "the Beaver".
He was so good at playing the two-face kid, so sweet and charming around the adults yet so mischievous with the other kids.
Ken Osmond left a legacy with his Eddie Haskell character. It was endearing.
Yes he did!
One of the best child actors I've ever seen. Played Eddie Haskell really well; a real natural. I think everyone knew an "Eddie" growing up, lol.
WHATS < AN EDDIE GROWING UP LOL >??
I knew one at work!
Never knew he was a cop. So good to see time has been so good to him.
a true legend & gentleman. r.i.p. Ken Osmond, your memory is a blessing to those of us who grew up with you.
Loved the Eddie Haskell character..perfect match for Tony Dow's Wally.
Tony Dow was a great straight man to Ken Osmond's wiseguy.
"Hey Beave, where ya been, out scarin' babies?!!"
Love that line!!!
Eddie Haskell was my favorite character!!🤣🤣🤣✝️⚜️
RIP Ken "Eddie Haskell" Osmond. You were a great man.
Thank you Gil!
RIP Mr. Osmond. Thanks for the memories.
You're welcome Steve and thank you!
KO as Eddie Haskell often stole the show, with his beatnik quips and short shots from the era. Everybody wanted more Eddie back in the day!
lilly bloom Eddie and Wally best of the show
He is such a wise guy!! Boy mrs cleaver that's a very nice dress you are wearing today
Ikr?!🤣🤣🤣✝️⚜️

Didn't Ken rumored take off with him being Alice Cooper??
@@georgeplagianos6487Yes, and Ken Osmond was said to be porn star John Holmes.
i agree eddie wally and the lumb could have been the "happy days " of the 60s
Two enduring television icons: Bill O'Reilly and Ken Osmond. It would be great if O'Reilly returned to prime time television. RIP Ken Osmond.
Thank you Richard!
You notice how the boys always address everyone as Mister or Misses,, that's the why it was back in the 50's when i was a kid.
Great memories from my childhood!
not to sound creepy, but Ken Osmond is still so handsome, he aged really well! He looks exactly the same. Ken was also in an episode of the Munsters! He played a frat boy, he was so cute.

Totally agree!
+Breeze Martin He definitely was so cute as Eddie Haskell. I wish the show was still on Netflix!
He has aged better than Tony Dow or Jerry Mathers, who looks older than either.Great show and Ken nailed the role.
:Yer lookin' pretty good yerself there, Breeze!
:D
Breeze Martin I remember that episode. Him and his pal stole Herman and took him to the sorority house. Too funny
LITB was one of the greatest TV programs in history, it captured America at that era perfectly, like the movie American Graffiti it captured a time that will never be seen again, Mr. Haskell portrayed Eddie perfectly, everyone knew someone like him in school, love live Leave it to Beaver, I still watch the reruns when they are on !!
He still seems like like one of the guys.
What a shame Frank Bank "Lumpy" passed away five years after this aired.
RIP : (
😢
And what a shame we just lost Eddy
I just got his book (EDDIE). & I loved it! He was so open! I loved Eddie and totally respect Ken! GREAT READ!
A true American Icon. Too bad Hollywood typecast him, who knows how great his acting career could have lasted.
Wow. He grew up to be a good looking guy!
Eddie's ugly as fuck
Thank you for all the genuine entertainment. Ppl love you, Ken.
He was on an episode of Happy Days as a teacher who acted like a grown up Eddie. He was hilarious.
I loved his character. he was so sneaky and underhanded. it's unfortunate that he couldn't get more work.
As someone else alluded to, EVERYONE knew an Eddie Haskell growing up. "Hey Wally, no way is your little squirt brother coming to the movies with us......oh, hello Mrs. Cleaver! I was just telling Wallace now nice it would be if Theodore could come to the movies with us." Priceless.

Everyone went to high school with at least one Eddie Haskell. Ken Osmond brought us so much laughter.
I always was thrilled by how Eddie was always so polite to Ward and June and such a wise guy to beaver and his friends loved leave it to beaver and I have the complete collection of the show on DVD, Rip Ken osmond Eddie Haskell will be loved forever
Eddie looks damn good!!
He matured into his looks. Nice looking. Too bad he got typecast. Better looking than Wally and the Beave as an adult.
What a fantastic role....he def played it perfectly. The best shows were always those where he was scheming...
Thank You for the entertainment of my years growing up! R.I.P. Mr. Osmond
You're welcome Jack and thank you!
@NCISFAN1954 I met Ken a few years ago. Really nice guy. He and Frank Bank were at an antiques show in Tacoma WA. I had my camera with me and got some pictures of the three of us together.
Super nice guy! Met him in the 90`s.Great with kids.
Who's here after hearing about Ken Osmonds/Eddie Haskels recent death?
Oh man, with everything else in the news, I didn't even know he died.
ME🙋🏾♀️ Imagine someone getting pulled over by Officer Haskell for speeding,during the 1970s. He walks over towards the window and the person looks out the window. Saying HEY aren't you Eddie Haskell from Leave It To Beaver😂
That and to see/hear Bill O'Reilly not be a jerk, for once in his life. Rest, In Peace, Ken O'Smond. Osmond.

Just as well he didn't have a spin off. He would have had too much exposure.
Weren't Petticoat Junction and Green Acres spin-offs of The Beverly Hillbillies?
I'd have watched an Eddie Haskell show. I'd still be watching the reruns now. I've heard that Eddie started as a one-off appearance, but Osmond brought so much to the character, they kept him.
A lot of popular actors have had spinoffs that didn't work. Flo (kiss my grits), the Roper's, Fish( Barney Miller), and Joey (Friends) come to mind. Some characters are only successful in small doses. What if they had made shows like Lumpy Rutherford Gymnast, Barney Fife Sheriff of Mount Pilot, Edith Bunker Hotel clerk, Mr. Haney Salesman Of the Year, or Wilbur Post the Jockey LOL
An Eddie Haskell spinoff could've worked, and one was being prepared in 1963 when LITB ended. It would've followed Eddie having to join the Marine Corps after getting into trouble with the law.

Goodbye Eddie we love you ! The O Reily show ! Ken Osmond you will always be remembed!
Thank you Mary. Ken really enjoyed doing this interview.
Articulate, well-preserved, and sooo diplomatically good-looking...12 years later 2021 hoping all is still well with Ken O.👵🎈
I was born in 1971 and I love "Leave It To Beaver". Watched the reruns as a kid.
just seeing this clip I remember when this originally aired always been a Ken Osmond AKA Eddie Haskell fan but I do miss Bill O'Reilly I'll say that I missed the show!!!!!
Wow! Been meaning to look at this. I watch LITB everyday. Wow.
Hollywood missed out, typecasting a fantastic actor. Other events, in every other circle, took advantage of his remarkable talent.
It's neat to see Ken Osmond again, unfortunately, I had to see O'Reilly in the process.
He was a wonderful actor. Loved how he would call Wally “Clyde”, “Gertrude”, etc. There was a touching episode where Eddie moved into his own apartment. He acted like he was living the high life, but his place was a mess and he was lonely and got a dog.
Lurene Tuttle played his concerned landlady.
GREAT SHOW!! NEVER get tired of watching it!! ALWAYS LOVE seeing it!!
The coolest dude in Heaven.
Big fan here. Played the wise guy perfectly and convincingly. At times, I'd feel sorry for him. He was the guy in the group who had nothing to contribute, so he'd do anything to get noticed.
Oh !! How sad I am it was one of my favorite program for years I would not miss it ,
I was about fifteen when I use to wait to begin watching all the family and I do remember
Him very well .resthe in Peace.
Thank you David!
One of the best shows of all time. I wish I were one of the guys giving Lumpy the business.
I believe the reason the Eddie character was so successful is that he was believable. Every kid knew someone at least a bit like Eddie. He was a smoozing, wise-ass, duplicitous, selfish charmer - but a VERY funny one. I'm sure Eddie must have gone into sales!
Jerry always said Eddie was the best actor because real life Ken Osmond was completely opposite of Eddie. Brilliant, and completely believable.
he was a wise ass on th show. But you can see in real life he is filled with gratitude and humility. Rest in peace when you are ready "Eddie"
He was the character in leave it to beaver that made that show.
No Eddie- no show.
Eddie Haskell was quite possibly the slimiest conniver to slither across the small screen until J.R. Ewing and Creed Bratton later joined his unholy trinity.

He had to be a phenomenal actor to be able to play that role so well. What makes a good actor is when you can't tell their acting and he had it.
Eddie Haskell kept me in stitches. TV Land use to play re-runs of the show but I haven't seen an episode in years. They need to go back to their original format and show all the 1950's sitcoms.
MeTV is playing Leave it to Beaver from 8 am to 9 am Monday through friday.
What a great man AND a true American Hero.
Maybe the BEST supporting actor in the history of television. Thank you Ken. RIP!
