Wally's friend, Eddie Haskell, was known to be an insincere instigator type, and was either loved or hated by fans of this show.
LEAVE IT TO BEAVER began in 1957 and lasted for 6 seasons. In today's world and watching the DVD on a 75" big-screen television,
we could see some flaws. The biggest one?
June Cleaver bringing her husband Ward an empty cup...and Ward actually drinking (fake) coffee from an empty cup!
Believe it or not, Alfred Hitchcock made the same "error" in his 1940 movie, REBECCA. [Best Picture Of The Year]
Joan Fontaine grabs a pot of coffee from the mantelpiece and pours NOTHING into a cup....then takes a sip.
The more people I meet, the more they remind me of Eddie Haskell: Not Trustworthy, Dishonest, and Selfish.
> scene from LEAVE IT TO BEAVER whereby June Cleaver happens to be in the kitchen and overhears Eddie talking to Wally:
EDDIE: Hey Wally, let's call up some girls and pretend to be a talent scout.
{suddenly, June Cleaver enters the room}
JUNE CLEAVER: Hello Eddie.
EDDIE: Oh, Hello Mrs. Cleaver. Didn't know you were home. Gee, your hair looks real pretty today.
JUNE CLEAVER: Well, you should know, Eddie, being a talent scout.
