Yes, I've always liked Elinor Donahue, although this is a minor role for her despite being the bride.

So many great episodes…

Pilot.

When he told Martha to get under the bed.

When Martha said there’s lions and tigers in the backyard.

Christmas Story.

Dennis Duck.

When George needed the rescue squad.

When Dennis threw George’s coin in the fountain.

When the Barbecue was built.

When George got a haircut and space men were going to attack.

I love any episode when Mr. Wilson thinks he’s outsmarted Dennis and it backfires or when Dennis inadvertently takes something precious of Wilson’s. I just adore that character and think of Wilson and Dennis as a comedy team. Like when he’s trying to change the soil from his window box and Dennis is told to stay back. It’s Wilson who dumps it all over himself. Not a fan after Kearns passed away.

I love Dennis and the Rare Coin
The missing Stock certificate
The 50,000 Customer (seeing an emotional George Wilson)
The one where George starts tearing down his living room wall for the cat
The new neighbors who hate kids
The one when Mr. Wilson sleep walks
Love the one when Wilson is stuck in the space helmet.
Have to check out season 2 for more goodies.

The ending of the 50,000th customer is really touching. As is the episode where Wilson decides to give Dennis his old timepiece at the end. Dennis (kudos to Jay's acting, again) hesitates for a second, and hugs Wilson.

Yeah that stock certificate is funny, too. Hunting thru all those old phone books, when Dennis had it in his treehouse all along.

In the John Wilson season I don't think I mentioned the one where Dennis unwittingly taped Mrs. Elkins saying she only wanted the bird club presidency to further her political chances.

And ANY episode with Miss Cathcart.

I just saw that episode again Friday and it's Henry Mitchell who bashes Mooney with a pan.

There is another episode in the fourth season, where I suppose there is yet another prowler. And Mooney is hunting around outside the Wilson kitchen window, and John Wilson bops him with a frying pan. The sound effects guy really enhances these funny scenes.

Also the frog-jumping contest episode. The scene where George was hunting for the frog in Mitchell's house made that one.

Any other ones would have to be lovelorn episodes with Miss Cathcart, which wouldn't include the one where George's niece got married.

I recently watched the frog episode, weren't the frogs fake ones made of rubber?

Watching a rare coin episode right now on Antenna TV, actually the Confederate money episode.

True, the show is in its prime here, with the original Mr. Wilson in fine form.

Dennis' mother is absent in this episode, for some reason.

I'll keep an eye out for this one, Elinor Donahue was gorgeous on Father Knows Best this morning.
