#1 Cheap Leave It to Beaver - The Complete Second Season Reviews
Special Price Today Go To Store!! (Limited Time Offer)
Despite airing over 50 years ago, I still get the same chuckles and good feelings watching these TV episodes today. They are timeless and priceless and usually give good life lessons, without shoving anything down your throat. The older you are, the more you appreciate this show and the great writing in it.
Anyway, new friends come and go in a few of these second season episodes, people like "Chuey," who Beaver unintentionally hurts by telling the Hispanic boy, "You have a face like a pig" when he meant something else. Guess who was behind that insult? Yup, the evil "Eddie Haskell," who "teaches" Beaver some Spanish.
Then there is old Gus, at the Fire Hall, the quirky "Gilbert," the loser Larry Mondello, the tattletale "Judy" and a bunch of others as well as reliable older brother Wally and Beaver's two solid parents, Ward and June. Who can forget these names?
There are 39 episodes so you can a lot of material, making the set a good buy at almost any price. I enjoyed this so much that I've been almost heartbroken that no DVDs have been issued since. My guess is there were not enough people like me who loved this show enough to buy these first two DVD sets. Still, "Leave It To Beaver" is one of the more famous TV shows in history it would be nice to have them available to anyone who wants a complete history of it.
Leave It to Beaver - The Complete Second Season Overview
America’s quintessential family returns with all 39 original, uncut episodes of Leave It to Beaver Season 2! Return to Mayfield for a warm welcome from its most charming family -- the Cleavers: wise pop Ward (Hugh Beaumont), resourceful mother June (Barbara Billingsley), curious older brother Wally (Tony Dow), and lovable, scruffy Theodore "Beaver" (Jerry Mathers). From building a boat to beating a bully to dealing with girls (cooties!), there’s nothing the two Cleaver boys can’t handle with a little luck and a lot of wholesome, homespun advice. Digitally remastered for optimum picture and audio quality, critics declare "…this 1957-1963 sitcom is as enjoyable today for its ‘50s nostalgia as it was then for its modern, understated humor" (David Bianculli, New York Daily News). Gee whiz!
Good old fashioned television - truth seeker -
I could watch these all weekend long. Great stories with no violence,or language or commercials. previews up front but you can ff past. Great influence on my son. Great family relationships with trust, problem solving skills and laughter, the family dinner table, harmless mischief. (That Larry Mondello). Just bought season 1 as well. Life was wonderful back then. I sure miss that.
