in the episode "A Night In the Woods", Gilbert mentioned Tuesday Weld (from Dobie Gillis).
Eddie: Who is it? Gilbert: It aint Tuesday Weld!

Some additional examples not already mentioned above...........
Ward -- "Well, dear, I'm at the age where even Susan Hayward doesn't look like Susan Hayward anymore." Beaver -- "Gee, mom, Wally's seen Rock Hudson eat in the movies lots of times." Wally -- "Even when Rock Hudson is yelling at Doris Day in the movies, you know in the end he's gonna end up huggin' her." Girl at dance with Wally -- "Wally, you have eyes just like Tab Hunter." Beaver -- "Mom? Was dad in the same war with President Eisenhower?" There's also a latter-year episode where June mentions something to Ward about his "Kennedy coloring book". |

June -- "Then my mother went to see Helen Hayes again...the comparison almost killed her."
Wally -- "This place is gettin' to be like 77 Sunset Strip!" Wally -- "The next thing you know we'll be seeing Beaver riding around in one of those sports cars on Route 66." Beaver -- "Edward G. Robinson is real good about going straight at the end of a picture." |

One of my all-time favorites.........
Eddie -- "We're going to see "Spartacus" Mr. Cleaver. I'm a student of history, and I want to see if it contains any inaccuracies." Ward -- Well, don't you let Kirk Douglas get away with anything Eddie."

In one ep Wally says Beaver was talking in his sleep; "it sounded like he was singing the Wyatt Earp theme song-- but maybe he was just moanin'."
---------------------------- Beaver: And when the bus gets to Texas, I get to go see the Alamo, where John Wayne was a big hero. Wally: Heck, Beaver, everywhere you go John Wayne was a big hero. ------------ Beaver: Alright, but even if the other guys don't know it {that Lumpy, with Eddie, started the towel fight that got Wally kicked off the track team} you'll know it. Lumpy: So what? Beaver: So you're gonna know what a big rat you are. And then you're gonna feel like a even bigger rat. And pretty soon you'll feel like the biggest rat in the world. Lumpy: Where do you get all this junk? Beaver: It happend in the movies-- to a man who was mean to Jimmy Stewart. Lumpy: Look, Beaver, you better beat it! Beaver: Okay-- but just remember what I said, Lumpy. Lumpy: I told you!-- my real name is Clarence! Beaver: I know it is-- Clarence Rat. [Lumpy makes a motion as if he's going to strike].... (sings) Lumpy - Dumpy- stupid as a rat!-- a-ah! It's also in this ep, "Wally's Track Meet," that earlier another show is referred to. Beaver tells Wally that at the last minute Eddie and Lumpy are going to come forward and admit they started the towel fight, then Wally is back on the team he runs and wins the meet for the team. Wally asks him why he thinks that "jazz" will happen, and Beaver says "It happens every week on...." And here is where I don't understand what Beaver says. It sounds something like "Luminapolis." If this is referring to a real show, that's not the title because I can't find any record of it. |
