All time favorite show... Not many shows where i can name so many iconic characters....the beaver..Wally..June and Ward...Eddie Haskell ...Larry model..Clarence "lumpy" Rutherford..miss landers.. Best line ever "ward, aren't you being. Little hard on the beaver.."
I am surprised Jerry didn't mention that he had already worked with Hugh Beaumont on a short film for a life insurance company in 1957 the same year he started as the beaver. I am pretty sure he did that before "Beaver".
What a wonderful story. That was one of things that made that show so great. The casting.
What a great story...and well told, imo.
Aww.. love it
Fascinating hearing Jerry reminisce about how he got the role and he has a very interesting way of telling a story!..
i loved the cub scout story! i was a boy scout. great organization! LR

Nice to see a child star actually turn out fine for once.
I liked " Gee beaver, what'd you go and do that for "?
Woo Hoo Great story.
