Leave It To Beaver, a series both praised for its family-bolstering innocence and panned for its homogenized sappiness, served as a bridge between the waning radio comedy and the blossoming of the television "sitcom." Beaver ran on network television from October 1957 to September 1963; the first season on CBS and the last five on ABC.
This is a family photo of the Cleaver family; Jerry Mathers, as the youngest character, starred as The Beave. As a young girl with budding hormones, I thought older brother Wally was HOT! Mrs. Cleaver, played by Barbera Billingsley, would never be caught without her pearls. Jeez! Gimme a break.
No matter how young you feel, this one still hurts...
Yikes! My eyes! My eyes! Do you recognize them? That's Eddie Haskell on the left, Beave in the middle, and {sniff} Wally on the right. When did they get so freakin' old?????

OK.....it's 5:45am out here in Denver (the Doughboy is on a roadtrip) and this was the equivalent of a wake up call. Beave.....how could you let yourself go like that !!!
LOL!
I thought the same thing last time I saw David Cassidy on TV.
(oh great! Now I'll be singing "I think I love you" all day)

Oh, my...I want to be sick. Ewwww!
Never does to look in the mirror or have your photo taken as you go into your sixties - the results are always too shattering. You are best to remember that you are still young at heart! Thanks for visiting my blog.
Wally is still kinda hot. I cannot believe I just thought that. Much less print it.
Wow. Apparently they avoided the warnings about how too much sun can destroy your skin. Does the Beave's face look a little lopsided??
Wally is still kinda hot in my opinion. I had a big crush on him growing up, of course it was already in sindication by then...I wonder what ever happened to Mary Ellen...that was the name of his girlfriend, right?
I cam over from Mental Pause Chronicles...you have a great site..I willd definitely be back!
Oh my Gosh that's too funny. Time flies by so fast. GASP!
