    "Leave It To Beaver: Season 1" -- A Personal Review

    I have no idea about the "Film" dates with regard to LITB, or the "Small World" pilot. But the pilot aired for the first time (in syndication) in April 1957, so it was either filmed in very early '57 or late '56 even.

    JUNE -- "Ward, why don't you ever bring me flowers?" WARD -- "I'm the kind that says it with seat covers." :) :) :) :)

    "Leave It To Beaver: Season 1" -- A Personal Review

    For just a second (when I saw "review" here in your post) I thought that perhaps it was I who had foolishly put such inaccurate info in my review here. But then I saw that you were referring to somebody else. Yes, that person is definitely mistaken re. the pilot. I've had it on homemade VHS...

    Merry Christmas to you too, Mike. (And everyone.) And I, too, Greg, would send that talking TV packing due to its horrid taste in sitcoms. A shocking lack of Beaver appreciation! :)

    "Leave It To Beaver: Season 1" -- A Personal Review

    Something else for you to watch out for next week, Mike, when you get your Beaver ....... Watch for an "alternate take" of one line of dialogue by Ward during the pre-show "Preview" clip on "The Perfect Father" episode. Ward's line "By the way, it's regulation" (referring to the new basketball...

    "Leave It To Beaver: Season 1" -- A Personal Review

    I recently discovered this promotional photo (below) of the Cleaver gang. It's a Christmas promo pic. Unfortunately, however, there was never a Christmas-themed episode of "Leave It To Beaver" made (despite the fact that there were six opportunities in which to film one during the series'...

    "Leave It To Beaver: Season 1" -- A Personal Review

    Another scene and hunk o' dialogue I'd never seen or heard prior to these DVDs...... In the episode "Brotherly Love", Ward says to The June-ster: "June, a man's head has always been softer than a woman's heart." :)

    "Leave It To Beaver: Season 1" -- A Personal Review

    LITB Trivia For Today......... I just noted via the sparklingly-clear ending credits on the S.1 DVDs from Universal that the "Assistant Director" on many of the LITB episodes was Hilton A. Green .... the same Mr. Green who was Asst. Director for the film "Psycho", and who pops up on a DVD...

    "Leave It To Beaver: Season 1" -- A Personal Review

    Note Re. The "SDH English Subtitles" For "Leave It To Beaver: The Complete First Season" ......... These subtitles are very nicely done, with all dialogue written out verbatim on screen (plus even references to background sounds and ambient noises -- e.g., "Footsteps Approaching" and "Phone...

    "Leave It To Beaver: Season 1" -- A Personal Review

    Yeah...that price is highway robbery of the first order. No question about that fact. Especially when comparing it to the $210 price tag that I'll end up paying for the six top-quality and officially-licensed LITB complete-season sets via Universal. (This assumes that all six seasons will be...

    Some of these LITB "Trading Cards" would make a nice bonus item in future Beaver collections as well...... :)

    Shame on you, Mike! Such foul-mouthed language! I'm sending you to Mrs. Rayburn's office post-haste...and you can have a taste of her automatic "spanking machine" for your attitude! So there! :)
