I've said this before on other forums, but wouldn't you think the Haskells would know Wally better than for Agnes to call him "that Cleaver boy?"

Not surprising, Ward and June were friends with the Haskells in the early seasons, but seemed only acquaintances with them in the later ones.

Yup that was weird. Ward goes from calling him George to Mr. Haskell. Of course they changed actors playing his parents. Just in Bachelor At Large George told Ward to not let Wally visit him in his rented room. I think Ward calls him Mr. Haskell. At least we get to know that Lumpy has a sickly purple car and Wally, a green car in need of a paint job. Better call Maaco.

I like Karl Swenson when he played Eddie's father in Voidoo Magic.

George, Frank, then in that Credit Card episode, doesn't Eddie's name read Eddie Haskell Jr?

Yes, Voodoo Magic was the funniest moment for Eddie's pop.

Why would they broadcast "Teenage Forum" on Thursdays at 11AM.......Most kids would be in school and have no chance to watch it?

Excellent observation and no way to record and watch at night. We think of VCR's and was it Tivo? where we wouldn't miss a show. I remember what it was like to miss a show on TV and that was it, you missed it. Everyone would be talking about it at school and you were the odd ball.

Love how Beaver disappears long enough to miss the part about pre-recording the show. Leave it to Beaver. Mrs. Rayburn saw the letter and knew he was on so she could have surmised that it was recorded since she was a principal.

As we've said before, but then we would be about ten minutes short of a show.
