Love that show. Especially "The Haircut" episode or anyone with Eddy Haskell.

I haven't watched the show in some time, but as a kid, I recall seeing every episode several times. I'm gonna tune in to that marathon.

Well, I just got in and I've yet to tune in, but I still love that show (LEAVE IT TO BEAVER) and before I go to bed tonight, I will check out which one is on.  I have yet to see them all, though I own them on DVD (burned by a very good and meticulous friend who even edited commercials... ) Only the first and second seasons are available on DVD (I suspect the first two sold less than expected or just did not generate enough revenue to warrant four more seasons released...) with age, the show I hated more than probably any other (besides GILLIGAN'S ISLAND) has, to my own suprise, fulfilled my own TV fantasy of what life was like, or what life might have been like, or what life should have been like, in another timeline.  Despite the many criticisms that may be fairly leveled at this six year program, it succeeded in fulfilling its function, and inadvertently seeped into the American subconscious (and I think the Canadians, Australians, too !  It was never shown in Great Britain proper: England, Scotland, Ireland.)

The best sit-com about being a kid.  Ever.
