Does Anybody Find It Odd, that they named an episode
Beaver's Laundry? When It was'nt his Laundry at all,
It was Richard's Laundry.

Was that the one where they put too much soap in the washer?

I like that episode! It seems like quite a few sitcoms have used that too much soap in the washer theme,but its still kinda funny.:)

Yes It was that episode (Recardo/Merts)

I haven't seen that one in a long time. All I remember was thinking. What a mess in June's immaculate house!

"Ward, just look at this kitchen!!!!!!"

It should have been called Richard's Laundry, it was his laundry.


and his father was in a real hittin' mood that day!!!!:schmack:

Other sitcoms besides "Beaver" that used this gag:

Brady Bunch

Courtship of Eddie's Father

Others?

I think but, am not 100% Family Matters used it.

I think I remember this happening on Charles in Charge as well.

I don't know of anyone that this happened to in real life.

I can't and don't speak for the whole human race,BUT...I don't think anyone would actually do that.I mean,before you ever do laundry for the 1st time,you've seen someone else do it before,right????:)

the instructions on the box are about as detailed as you can get.:D

Brady Bunch did it.

that is correct!:wave:

This was such a funny episode! Everyone was being so funny and no one was acting like a fuddy-duddy. I really enjoyed Wally and Ward's interactions in this episode, they were getting some good digs at each other.:D

I thought Eddie was pretty funny mopping up the kitchen floor and shaking the soap suds off his foot.

That was so funny!!! And also when he said it was okay that Wally was helping out as long as it was for commercial reasons.:lol:

Beaver told Richard he'd watched his mom do laundry lots of times. If so, why did he dump a whole box of detergent in?

The only time the overflowing washing machine wasn’t a plot was on Gilligan’s Island. However I’m sure the professor could have invented one. I thought Richard standing there holding his father’s underwear was weird. Also would have loved to have seen them pulling “20” pounds of wet clothes out of the machine.

Another time Beaver was rather dumb was putting in all that soap and all the starch?? As another poster said he had seen his mother do laundry all the time.

Notice June kept pushing her hair out of her eyes to indicate she needed her hair done. Later it looked the same just off her forehead. Kinda like sheepdog. All he needed to do was comb it.

"June the Sheepdog." Maybe she should have bought some Glama spray while she was out.
