Who looked better? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Tony Dow, Jerry Mathers (currently) or Hugh Beaumont during Leave it to Beaver? They were around the same age at these times and I feel Hugh looked better then than either Jerry or Tony looks now.

Your opinions?

I think Hugh B. did look better than the others do today!

Hugh was a doll. Looks better in his late 40's, early 50's than the others looked even just a few years ago.

I agree that Hugh looked better then than Tony or Jerry do now but to me the stars of yesteryear all looked better than the ones today.

I also think that Hugh looked MUCH better. Of course I thought he was a very sexy man anyway. Tony wasn't bad but, Jerry's looks seemed to fall apart once he hit puberty and it never improved. He was a little cutie as a little guy though.

It is always amazing to me how Jerry's appearance changed during the show's run. We all change as we grow up, but with him it's hard to even tell it is the same kid!

Michael [hXc] · 08-14-2004, 04:39 PM

Tony always looked the same though. But when seeing him on the show, you'd think he'd grow up to look like Ward. People say I look like Jimmy Fallon from Saturday Night Live but I don't think I'll grow up to look like that.

Tony changed a lot during the show too, though! In the early years his hair was much lighter, and more curly.

To me he changed because in the beginning he resembled June more (head shape, light hair, etc.) but in later episodes he more resembled Ward.

I think that's true! As a kid I didn't look like either of my parents, but now I am looking more and more like my dad all the time!

Michael [hXc] · 08-14-2004, 04:49 PM

Most people say I look like my mom but people also say I look like Jimmy Fallon (SNL) and my dad's the one who resembles him a bit. So that's almost like saying I look like my dad

I look like both I guess.

If you look like Jimmy Fallon you must be Irish!

Michael [hXc] · 08-14-2004, 04:53 PM

Not at all. If I were to see Jimmy Fallon and decide on what nationality I thought he was I'd pick Italian. But some people think I look Irish. He doesn't look Irish to me.

Now Conan O'Brien looks Irish

duluthduke · 08-14-2004, 04:57 PM

That's true, but most Irish people around here have dark hair and fair skin! And Fallon is an Irish name!

Michael [hXc] · 08-14-2004, 04:59 PM

To me Irish is sandy colored hair and greenish blue eyes. But I guess I could look Irish too.

Do you watch Late Night with Conan O'Brien? I want to but my grandmother thinks it's inappropriate for kids. My friend and I saw an episode with John Ritter.
