It was the closest you could get to being under the big top and if you are old enough to have seen a few of the live performances, you are indeed blessed. "Old and Young" are just words.

Binge Watch The Complete Show Free



Do you remember....
Leave It to Beaver? 

If not...... it was American television situation comedy about an inquisitive and often naive boy named Theodore "The Beaver" Cleaver who was portrayed by Jerry Mathers. It followed  his adventures at home, in school, and around his suburban neighborhood.
The show also starred Barbara Billingsley and Hugh Beaumont as Beaver's parents,
June and Ward Cleaver, and Tony Dow as Beaver's brother Wally.
The show has attained an iconic status in the United States, with the Cleavers exemplifying the idealized suburban family of the mid-20th century.

The show aired from 1957 -1963 and I was right around the Beaver Clever age. I still have to laugh at the miss adventures he would get himself into.
In a typical episode Beaver got into some sort of trouble, then faced his parents for reprimand and correction. 
However, neither parent was omniscient......... indeed, the series often showed the parents debating their approach to child rearing, and some episodes were built around parental gaffes.

  The show was created by writers Joe Connelly and Bob Mosher. 
Veterans of radio and early television.... they often found inspiration for the shows characters, 
plots and dialogue in the lives, experiences and conversations of their.... very own children.
"Leave It to Beaver" is one of the first prime time sitcom series written from a child's point of view.






The complete....." Leave It To Beaver Series "is embedded just below.
Just keep watching.. one after the other.... and you could binge watch all the episodes!
 I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

Thanks For "LIKING" Yesterday Television



"I'm nuts and I know it," Red Skelton quipped, "But so long as I make 'em laugh, they ain't going to put me away."
As this hilarious compendium of out-takes from his television appearances proves, Red could be at his funniest when he departed....whether intentionally or not.....
from the script.
