Sickening Beaver

[Corvetteguy]

Is it just me ? or is Beaver really sickening and pathetic in these episodes. He acts like a stupid moronic wimp. The episode they showed the other day about the sheep dog comment is a good example. He wines around like a five year old and then slicks his hair down to look like a mayonaise accident and sits at the table making weird contorted facial expression until someone notices his new do. The best part is when Wally starts laughing. I also thought it was funny when the woman at the drug store suspected the spray was for him and tricked him into saying so. Another episode is the record club episode. I hope ole Beave didn't get a hernia doing those snazzy dance steps. Poor Beaver with his hair problem. Something like that could give him a trauma

No, you are not the only one who finds the last years of LITB to be sickening and pathetic. The show went on just a bit too long after Beaver began to mature. The show was appealing in its early years because it was about a cute little 7 year old boy who got in and out of trouble. When Beaver grew to be as tall as his Dad and to have a head as large as his Dad's and began to show a shadow of a moustache over his upper lip and began to sprout zits he just wasn't cute anymore. The producers however kept him stuck in the same situations he was in when he was 7 years old. Well, he was cute when he was a 7 year old but he wasn't cute as a 12 year old. He was stinky, greasy-looking and pathetic. I agree with you about his dancing - I thought the scene was an example of early TV computer enhancement. It looked like poor Beave had St. Vitus' Dance. It was pathetic but worth seeing. I would never discourage anyone from watching the last years of LITB. Though the episodes cannot compare in merit and greatness to the first several years of LITB they are still worth watching for the fact that they chronicle the demise of a once great show and put closure on the series.
