With the passing of Tony Dow, this was so nice to see, got alittle misty eyed watching this..

I've been watching leave it to beaver my whole life, i will be watching it the rest of my life!

[@judyschreiner3096]

My husband and I watch an episode or two every night before going to bed. Takes us back to that wonderful time growing up. Things were so much simpler and innocent in those days.

[@americanspirit8932]

My brother and I, may he rest in peace, we never missed an episode of Leave It to Beaver. We never had a mother and father at home, so leave it to Beaver's family became our adopted family. It was always a moral to the story, and it shows how children should be raised in a wholesome family teaching respect for others. Missing so much in today's world. Thank you for the post today is February 22nd 2022.

Just a couple days ago I saw the episode where Gilbert dares to make a goofy face in the class picture, and bails on Beav at the last second, so Beaver's the only one making the stupid face in the photo. Funny stuff.

[@aaronweiser5421]

Lol, I remember that episode 🤣

[@rhymereason3449]

They had the photographer alter the picture by hiding his face with a big hair bow drawn in on the girl in front of him... a creative solution because it was too late to retake the photo.

[@chrisfinch8637]

And another moment I can always remember, is that one time where Gilbert tempts The Beaver to sneak him in the cinema (only because he spent all his money on a pogo stick he was too big for) to see Tony Curtis on the big screen, only to have the theater usher catch both of them, as if THEY were both trying to sneak in the theater, itself. Yeah, Gilbert was quite the troublemaker on the show, but he certainly wasn’t like that, outside of it.

[@moonriver3552]

Both of them are just genuinely older versions of the same kids we grew up with. I've seen Jerry thru the years. He always comes across as a very nice, humble guy. This is the first time I've seen "Gilbert" Stephen since back in the day. What a pleasant, down to earth guy. Some iconic TV stars turn out not so good in real life. They fall on bad times or make bad choices....but some let it go to their heads and are just truly A-holes (like any profession.) Refreshing to see these guys turn out so well. Thanks so much for bringing them together and letting them talk!

I tell people that my childhood mirrored LITB, except I didn't get into trouble every week. I had two loving parents, a big brother, two best friends and neighbors that looked after you. Even the town where I grew up in, Burbank, California was similar to Mayfield. I'm 70 now and I have to tell you growing up in the late 50's/early 60's was the absolute Best Place to Be!

Ms. Sorrentino , I’m 65 going on 66 and I STILL watch this show daily . It makes me remember when I was 10-11 years old and for an hour I am again .

[@True_Christian]

METV speeds up the rate at which the show is played *and* heavily butchers the content for time as well. You really should watch LITB on the DVD set, as they are uncut & complete episodes and played back at their normal pace.

[@jehobden]

Gilbert was about the worst of Beaver's friends for getting him into trouble. MeTV recently reran "The School Picture", where Gilbert was at his worst, talking Beaver into ruining their school picture but not doing it w/ him, leaving Beaver to look like a fool by himself.

[@tonym994]

I should tape some of those. haven't seen 7 AM since a brief trip to the bathroom. BTW, that episode where they show a toilet after getting their own crocodile, is not just historic, but hilarious! Ward gets bit by the thing. look at Beaver's reaction when Capt.Jack (Edgar Buchanan) describes what a croc will do to your finger ."he would SAW it off!" priceless TV. I'm still amazed that they dealt w/ alcoholism realistically, on the show where the painter needs a belt to keep from getting the shakes. ahead of it's time. this podcast should've been 90 min. at least. but I'll take it.

It was off the air b4 I was born, but it's been my ABSOLUTE favorite since I first "discovered" it in the 1990's. My VERY close 2nd is a show that aired "in my time", but I was young & sent to bed before it came on TV: M.A.S.H. (honorable mention: ALL in the family). I've had no idea what's on TV since "Friends" & nothing looks appealing. Caveat: There was after "Friends" I liked: "Mike & Molly".But NOTHING comes close to the oldie 3 I mentioned.

Hard to believe they both ended before JFK was assassinated, which was sad, since the Kennedy Family was mentioned. Both were classics, when it began in the late 1950's.

[@jehobden]

Very nice! It was great especially seeing Stephen Talbot embrace his past as Gilbert, since for years he refused to do anything associated w/ LitB. I remember watching a couple of his PBS documentaries back in the 1990s, and he even called into a local talk radio show to discuss 1 of them, and the host made no mention of his past acting career. The episodes that he mentioned at the beginning are 3 of my favorites: "Beaver Sees America", which was the last episode filmed before the finale, "Box Office Attraction", which had that "woman of the world" coming on to Wally, and my favorite LitB episode of all, "Beaver on TV", where Gilbert mentioned Rod Serling a few times. I thought it was great to have Stephen Talbot's character mention Rod Serling, since he made 2 "trips" to TZ himself: "Static", 1 of only 6 videotaped episodes where he played a boy who speaks w/ the main character about an old radio, and "The Fugitive", where he plays a friend of a crippled girl who had a space alien for a friend.

[@rosezingleman5007]

Stephen Talbot sounds *exactly* like he did as a kid, trying to get Beav into trouble. I always thought he was a natural. I was a child actor in LA (a couple years younger than Talbot and Mathers) and understand how great it was to get on a series. I once saw Stephen from a distance on the lot and developed an awful crush on him! Talbot’s father was a movie actor of some renown who appeared as another dad in an early season of LITB. Stephen was part of a dynasty. Thanks for this guys. It’s like seeing old friends.

@lynn m I used to live in a house in Oakland that Stephen used to live in. Him and his brother David live in S.F. and their sister in NYC.

Their dad was one of the people starting The Screen Guild. Starting the union and the woman he was involved with was the widow of one of the Warner family. He had 2 strikes against him that kept him off the A list. Stephen and David were local media in Bay Area. Stephen on Ch. 9 and David writing for papers and he started and sold Salon.
