another tvland LITB board question but here goes. heres mine it started out june and Eddie were having a conversation (I dont know what they were talking about though) and he was just about to go up to Wally and Beavers room (i think) and Eddie walks by the stove he then stops and sniffs what's cooking and remarks, 'It smells delicious...Whatever it is. :lol:. what yours?.

i love all of eddie's moments. he is never ever boring when he's on screen. let me take that back, i don't like the season 1 or 2 eddie because then he was just a little troublemaker, but when he grows up and his character is retooled he is just great. he is great with his typical wise guy stuff, always full of fun and energy. but i also like when he has to show his good side, like when he suddenly does the dishes because the cleavers let him stay over or when he helps the beav with wally's suit. he hits the highest notes i think on the show, he gets more of a range than anyone else does.:wave:

great question.

I have SO many favorite Eddie moments...they are probably all my faves!!! I have absolutely no idea what's happening with the TVLand awards, but I hope somehow they honor Ken Osmond. He really deserves an award.

I agree 100%.

Eddie Haskell deserves a category all his own as a sitcom character. Never been anyone quite like Eddie before or since. He's the Mick Jagger or the or the Elvis Presley of sitcoms. He's a legend. Eddie got reactions out of everyone he came in contact with on the show, and from anyone who ever viewed the show. You'll hear a difference of opinion from people about charactes in sitcoms. Some will say they liked, didn't like, could take or leave, so and so on. Or they'll say that the actor or actress wasn't convincing or memorable in their role. When it comes to Eddie Haskell, though, you'll always here the same thing, "The guy was a crackup, and ya gotta love 'im".

Very well said. Kitt

Ken Osmond does deserve a special TVLand award! Every "Eddie moment" is a classic. The minute he enters a scene, I know it will be priceless!

Agreed!
He should have a category named in his honor, like "Eddie Haskellest wise guy" or something.
And my favorite Eddie moment:
EDDIE: I would have stopped by sooner, but I had to go see my girl.
JUNE: Oh, you have a girl Eddie?
EDDIE: Oh yes ma'am. She goes away to boarding school. My father says that's a pretty good indication she has money.
JUNE: Oh, is that so?
EDDIE: Yes ma'am. My father says it doesn't pay to waste time with people who don't count.
JUNE: Well it was nice of you to stop by anyway Eddie.

Has anyone noticed how most of the really classic Eddie moments happen between him and June? They had a "special" relationship. ;)

i think they did i think she liked him a bit. no not like that but she tolarated him didn't she?. it seems like maybe once Eddie should of told her he had a crush on her it seems like eddie did for some reason. :)

And we know how funny it is when Eddie is actually in a scene. What can be equally as funny sometimes is when just a reference is made about him, usually by Wally. One of my favorites is when Wally made reference to the time when Eddie showed up to an ROTC meeting wearing a German helmet!

I think the thing that made Eddie and June so funny was the fact that June saw right through him and he knew it so he was always working extremely hard with her to try and pull the wool over her eyes. My favorite line was this:

Eddie: Gee, your kitchen always looks so clean.

June:Why, thank you Eddie

Eddie: My mother says it looks like you never do any work in here.


Classic!

that's funny, sami.

i think the other element to that is that june is sometimes caught off guard and almost falls for the phony charm and then eddie takes it one beat too far and wakes her up again.

but it's a great dynamic between them.

ward just has no patience for eddie. neither does beaver.

Another Eddie moment I like actually envolves Ward, not June. Remember the one where the tire on Ward's car goes flat and Wally and Beaver secretly have it patched?

June sets the phone down and goes to get Wally.
Ward picks up the phone.

WARD: Hello?
EDDIE: Hey Wally, did you get that crazy flat tire fixed before your old man came home and caught you?
WARD: What tire is that Eddie?
EDDIE: Oh...uh...Hello Mr. Cleaver.
WARD: Hello Eddie...What's new?
EDDIE: Oh, nothing sir. I have to go now, I think I hear my mother calling me.

:lol: I love how Ward says "Hello Eddie, What's new?":lol:

Another Eddie moment I love is the scene where he and Wally meet up with Beaver, after Beav lost the doll carriage, and Eddie doesn't tease the Beaver and actually offers to help get the carriage back. Then after Beaver leaves, Wally asks him about it, and Eddie tells the story about how when he was young, his sitter gave him a perm, and everyone laughed at him. I just love this scene, because it shows Eddie being very genuine. And I loved it at the end when Wally teased him that the perm lasted a long time. LOL

There's this one NLITB episode I want to see really badly again (well, all of them actually!), that kinda explores Wally and Eddie's friendship. It starts off with Eddie promising to get Wally a new air-conditioner for his house (since Eddie is the contractor that works on Wally's home), and he gets this cheap version that doesn't work. I don't remember what else happens, but Wally gets SO mad at Eddie and actually chases him down, and they both go sliding on Kevin's Slip-n-Slide, and Wally's got a hold on Eddie's neck, and Eddie's turning all blue under the water, and some members of the family are protesting, although I'm sure Beaver was happy.;) So then Eddie promises to get Wally his money back and an air-conditioner that works, but Wally doesn't trust him, and decides to go with him. And all the time, he's thinking "Why am I friends with this guy????" So they are on the road together in Eddie's truck, and Eddie's ticking him off left and right. I think Wally tried to listen to some music, and Eddie kept turning it off, because he doesn't like 80s music, and starts to sing the Beatles, which makes Wally even madder. Then they pass this woman who's hitchhiking on the road, and to Wally's protest, Eddie stops for her. She pulls out a gun and makes them give her all their stuff, including their wallets and clothes, and she takes off in the truck. So Wally and Eddie are abandoned on the highway wearing only their underwear. I think Wally was wearing a tank undershirt and regular (maybe striped?) boxers, but Eddie was wearing a t-shirt and boxers with hearts all over them, and his socks were actually held up by these garter type thingies. They were so funny!!! But we got to see how skinny Ken Osmond really is. I can't remember what else happened, but somehow Wally, who was ticked off more than ever, started noticing that Eddie never gives up and maybe some other good things about him, and the show ends with them walking down the highway together, in their underwear, both singing the Beatles. It was so cute!!!!!! I really wish some station would show this series again!!!!

I love the the conversation about eddies perm and wally says ya know what its holding up real good. and i'd SO love to see that scene from the NLITB i have never seen it but it sounds TOO funny!!!!! :) :lol:

Ward picks up the phone.

WARD: Hello?
EDDIE: Hey Wally, did you get that crazy flat tire fixed before your old man came home and caught you?

:lol:

Thanks for refreshing my memory about that episode. I haven't seen that one in years. Somehow I guess my timing is off. But what you wrote is definitely my favorite part of that episode. You got a good laugh out of me.

The best Eddie Haskell moment is when a girl is making fun of Beaver in class and Eddie teaches him how to insult her back. Classic!!!

At the end of the credit card episode Eddie is worried that he will lose Wally's friendship and nobody believes him. June Ward and Beaver discuss how Eddie must be up to something and then Eddie goes to talk to Wally and asks if they are still friends. Wally tries to find out what Eddie really wants and Eddie is upset that Wally doesn't realize that Eddie cares so much about the friendship. A very serious and good Eddie moment.
