Just started watching Leave It to Beaver about 2 months ago. Hugh is so warm, patient, and understanding as Ward when he gently disciplines Beaver and Wally with a talk (pulls up a chair and sits down with the boys, too). The brothers and their friends get into mischief, but nothing delinquent or violent. The children speak politely and respectfully toward adults. I record the show from MeTV and watch it after work. They recently broadcast the final episode (The Scrapbook) and are starting over with the very first episode (Jerry and Tony were so young!). It relieves my stress.
My uncle had the pleasure of meeting Hugh Beaumont. He was dining at a Mexican restaurant with his family and took the time to sign autographs for fans. He told my uncle to try the enchiladas. He was a great man.
This was very interesting to see. I was fortunate enough to see Leave It To Beaver in after-school-reruns. My Mom & Dad were married for 62 years. It was my sister and I and we had a wonderful childhood. I wish that families were still like this today. We've raised our sons like I'd like to think June & Ward and my Mother & Father would have. Always trying to keep our house "in order". I salute the other poster that pointed out that keeping Jesus in your house is important too!
I wish families were still like that too,they had high standards and do the right things, I get criticized now for that ,but right is right and wrong is wrong
What's sadder is that we let it happen. Yes the values of those days have been forgotten because all we care about is ourselves and money. I don't blame people for that because it's a matter of survival.
This really brings on the tears. Those two together make me think of my father, my parents, and how they raised me just like Beaver and Wally were raised. This whole way of life, the cars, the scenery, and most of all, the character of the people were true. I know it is a commercial of sorts; but looking beyond that it is a commentary of its time; the times of our lives for those of us who lived during this era.
Hugh Beaumont has always been a good role model, living an impeccable life. I'm sure that wasn't always easy but he sure made it look like it was,and I love him for the good example he left behind.
When I was 8 years old the first thing I would do run and turn the TV on after school and watch leave it to beaver and superman, now I'm 70 years old and I still love watching leave it to beaver, the only thing that changed was I got wiser and I can't run up and down the stairs but I'm still the kid who remembers the way it was back then....
I'm 53 years old and I just started watching Leave It to Beaver for months now, it's heart warming, much more simple and innocent then.. my husband and I enjoy watching Beaver every night. We love the characters 🥰💖❤💗
Thanks for posting this. I'm a Leave It To Beaver fan from way back. It's the only "really old" TV show I latched on to. I watched reruns as a child. On-screen chemistry is a funny thing. You can't produce it out of thin air - it either happens, or it doesn't. Hugh and Jerry had chemistry on film from the very beginning, from what I see here. Although the show had many great characters, the center was the relationship between Hugh and Jerry. It worked.
Being a fellow Spiritual Christian Minister, I have even more respect for the spirit of Mr. Hugh Beaumont. This was a time in Earth's past where folks like Rev. Hugh were not even afraid to mention The Wonderful Lord God on television and pursue and teach His God Moral Values. I do not have an Earthly-Father and never did growing up. But one of many older male figures I have come to admire and learn from is Hugh Beaumont. God Bless Mr. Beaumont's spirit sincerely and as this film is promoting a resting place, it truly also promotes the reality of a Continued Life and an Immortality Of One's Spirit. Amen
Hugh Beaumont was the perfect father for "The Leave It To Beaver" show. I didn't realize until later in life watching the reruns with my children that the show always had a moral to it. Anybody remember that word?
This is why at 55 I watch Leave It To Beaver all the time. It makes me laugh, feel good and relieves my stress for a time. I was only a little one when Beaver was in Prime Time but as I got older I came to appreciate it. Funny seeing Ward and Beaver in color.
Holy Smokes!! How the hell did I miss this!!! I'm a huge fan of the Beaver Series and now this is a treat to me. Wow. I always did love Ward Cleaver....reminds me of my pop and grandpop. A good man and good old fashion skills. I wish kids these days had these skills today in ethics. If you ask me..... these kids these days need a good ass woopin as far as respect and in good values. Some kids are raised good and I'm glad for that.
Beaumont was a minister and had a masters in theology. Two years after this film his mother-in-law was killed in a car accident in which his 16 year-old son was driving when two of the cars tires blew. Beaumont never fully recovered from that tragedy. His family was driving from Minnesota to California where he was filming 'Leave it to Beaver'.
Hugh was in his 50s when Leave it to Beaver was on air. He passed away in Germany I watched Leave it to Beaver on Tv Land as a kid. This brings back memories
Some Hollywood producer must have witnessed this and said, "Gentlemen, I have just seen something better than most of our recently made TV shows, although it's just a little 15 minute promo spot for a mortuary." The group would then send a few members to check out that promo and be amazed that Hugh and Jerry were showing better chemistry than anything featured on their current productions!
Leave It To Beaver started in Sept. 1957. This film was made earlier that same year. The producers certainly studied it and when casting was begun, it was a slam dunk. This before and after film shows the brilliant acting of Hugh Beaumont.
I love it!! Huge Boumount would have made the perfect man for me I love him in this and on the black and white leave it to beaver I love love love this, where'd these days go? why'd they have to go? take me back please take me back!!
That was neat! Rose Hills is beautiful. I was privileged to sing for several funerals there, including one in Rainbow Chapel. It is unique in its design, and peaceful. A number of my friends, and my mother-in-law are interned at the beautiful Rose Hills. It's an icon of the Los Angeles area.
I remember reading somewhere that Hugh Beaumont wasn't very happy with his stint as Ward Cleaver. He wanted to be thought of as a more serious actor. He directed quite a few "Leave It To Beaver" episodes and he enjoyed that more than being in the show. I still love "Leave It To Beaver." Growing up in the early 60s I had friends just like Beaver's. My best friend Bob was like Beaver's pal Gilbert. He was always daring me to do bad things and calling me chicken if I didn't comply.
"I actually worked with Hugh Beaumont even before we started shooting Leave it to Beaver. I was cast with him in a promotional film for Rose Hills Memorial Park. One thing I remember is that during a scene, I was supposed to cry on cue. Hugh asked me if I had ever done that before and I told him, no. He said, “Put your face into your hands and laugh really hard. It’s an old actor’s trick because the sound of laughter and crying are very closely related. Sure enough, I tried it and it worked!" This is part of a quote from this website-www.jerrymathers.com/hughbeaumont/
Old Hugh, uh Ward, making his final plans. Only 44 years old at the time. But a good and faithful servant, uh, actor. With that put in white hair and that affected gait and speech. Well done, I mean bravo. Great acting job. Could not have done better myself!
"Gee, Beav....did Dad give you the business again about proper funeral preparations? Eddie Haskell says that he's going to get cremated. What a creep".
I wouldn't be surprised if MCA/Revue referred to this...the first pilot of LEAVE IT TO BEAVER had different actors playing Ward and Wally, and clearly they could see the chemistry between Beaumont and Mathers. (that version also featured a young Harry Shearer as a prototype of the Eddie Haskell character)
I grew up in the 60's without a father and with a mentally ill mother. LITB and a few others were my escape to live a normal life, even if it was for only 30 minutes. What's ironic is now my life back then is considered pretty much normal now.
Wow I can't believe this short I love it! Where did you find this wow, I'm a huge fan of leave it to beaver, and I didn't know those to we're in anything else, thank you for a wonderful piece of history!!!
But Bank also wrote both Beaumont and Billingsley were like parents, off-screen, to all the younger actors in the cast of "Leave it To Beaver," providing warm wisdom, and discipline when the boys got out of line.
Hugh Beaumont was once the Minister at our church. The Bella Vista Methodist Church in Monterey Park California. Hugh, John Wayne, and O.J. Simpson are USC's most famous former students.
It couldn't have had anything to do with that angelic and wonderful FAYE "FREAKIN" RESNICK maybe????? I mean, she stayed with Nicole, she owed thousands of dollars to drug dealers/cartel, was a major addict, didn't pay for the drugs.....oh, but the drug cartel/dealers are so forgiving..................................
I was just thinking the same thing...including about the mechanical toy! I never knew this existed until I came across it on here, and suspect many Beaver fans don't even know about it (Jerry Mathers may not even remember!). I'm going to wager a guess that this was done immediately after the series began, or at least after casting. As far as it being in color, most mainstream films were shot in color at this point, and color 8mm film was also becoming more widely available at consumer prices.
In an ironic way, a few scenes remind me of Leave it to Beaver. And the final scene (starting at 14:18) closes the film in the same way as the final Leave it To Beaver episode, " Family Scrapbook", with a closeup of a mechanical toy monkey ending the series!
My house is in perfect order. Should I pass away, the old lady knows where I keep the refrigerator located behind the house. A hand truck is nearby in order that she can ease me down the hill without straining herself. And I've insulated the fridge so people wont' be reminded of my permanent condition.
Oh, that's covered. Have my passing all taken care of and won't cost anyone a cent...the way it should be. Of late, I am so sick of watching the freakin' TV hustle by insurance companies in their attempt to con us into cheap term policies designed to bury us and pay bills left behind. Man, they are so lame and in effect sick in that if we don't buy, we are irresponsible loved ones...We should do what societies did for centuries...have a celebratory bonfire that cost zero...with the exception of any booze and food brought along.
As a professionally licensed therapist, I always recommend some old school television as a relaxation technique; a controlled escape with a following treatment plan.
I do believe the narrator is Paul Soles who played Hermey the Elf in Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer back in 1964 and Spider-Man / Peter Parker in the animated Spider-Man from 1967-1970.
Gus Messenger So you missed the moral message when you saw the Leave To Beaver as a kid? Just kidding... What gets me is there is a water shortage in CA for the living and they have to water that entire cemetery to keep the grass green for the dead. Morals is one thing, but 'sacred tradition' is another.
Remember, when life happens, we are here to help you and your family when you are going to assume room temperature and take the forever dirt nap. We want to be your friend here at Rigor Mortis Mortuary.
What an odd curio! And I read somewhere, perhaps in Frank Bank's ("Lumpy Rutherford's") autobiography, that Hugh Beaumont and Jerry Mathers didn't have the warmest relationship, at least at the start, by comparison with Beaumont and Tony Dow, or that both boys did with Barbara Billingsley.
Remembering 1992 That does make a lot of sense. My first decade felt so long, but my second decade went by quicker. I assumed that the feeling of such a quick pace would've stopped soon.

I still watch Leave it to Beaver . I am 71 years old. Never gets old.
Just like you. :)
I'm 45 currently, but I'll probably still be watching Leave It To Beaver when I'm 71 too!

@Rulya Mórrigan Ard Mhacha 56 watch it every day I can.
I am 69 and watch. Nothing like the good ole days of television programs!!! The Best.🙂
Great Show, sad to hear about Tony Dow, R.I.P. Still the best show around and need more like this today! Still watch "Leave It to Beaver".
Today???? HAAAAAAA, dreamer! Too many CHEAP people nowadays.🤮
My uncle had the pleasure of meeting Hugh Beaumont. He was dining at a Mexican restaurant with his family and took the time to sign autographs for fans. He told my uncle to try the enchiladas. He was a great man.

Ah I think your just trying to give us the business.
June wore Pearl's, which is the birthstone of june
I love the natural way he speaks and deals with Jerry, more fathers should be like him, stern but loving.
Yes..this is TRAINING
by reasoning, before the rod
Only use when needed
Oh, Wally cox sounds like narrator
Hugh Beaumont was the perfect TV father.
Yes, he was!
My dad was a lot like him. Never yelled.
@@Tomes23 aw. So sweet.
Best ever!
I bet he was a real nice guy
Awesome. Never knew they worked together before L.I.T.B. Thanks for posting.
It was little Jerry, who recommended Hugh when the LITB producers needed to replace the original actor who played Ward in the original pilot.
I don't think we will ever see a day like this again--so sad!
What's sadder is that we let it happen. Yes the values of those days have been forgotten because all we care about is ourselves and money. I don't blame people for that because it's a matter of survival.
No greater tv father than Hugh Beaumont!
I'm 57 yrs.old, and I still watch Leave it to Beaver ❤

If it wasn't for Leave It To Beaver id probably have gone crazy. All these new shows are disgraceful and boring. I miss the simpler times...
Specter1065 took the words right outta my mouth and a lotta others who agree.
+Specter1065 Most are vulgar and sex driven. I have caught a bit here and there and they're awful.
+Specter1065 simpler times. it all depends on who you ask...A show like Big Bang Theory isn't all smut.
+Specter1065 I totally agree with you!!!!
Holy Smokes!! How the hell did I miss this!!! I'm a huge fan of the Beaver Series and now this is a treat to me. Wow. I always did love Ward Cleaver....reminds me of my pop and grandpop.

As far as we're concerned, our family feels Ward Cleaver was the best television father of all time.
👌not a bad choice.....WARD ROCKS ! 👍
A commercial of course, but well done with the Beav and Mr. Cleaver.

That's right!! Today The United States is so trashy!!!!!!!!😝😝😝
What's beautiful is getting out of the hospital with enough money to buy a cemetery plot. And apparently having money to live on after all THAT.
They still had their issues but it was better as a whole than now!
Damn, I'm getting my house in order starting next month!
Jerry is awful cute and Hugh makes the best dad!
Still love Leave it to Beaver at the ripe age of 56
56 isnt as old as it used to be😊

Hugh Beaumont and Jerry Mathers before Leave it to Beaver--How Foreboding!
Interesting that he did this ,Hugh Beaumont was a pastor before he was an actor
I do believe the narrator is Paul Soles who played Hermey the Elf in Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer back in 1964 and Spider-Man / Peter Parker in the animated Spider-Man from 1967-1970.
I'll never be able to look at Hugh Beaumont the same after seeing him in "money Madness".
Black and white film in Leave it to Beaver make ol' Hugh look much younger than he actually was.
Martha may be able to “talk all day” but Bob can revival her in the length of his letter.
Wow people look much older than their ages back then !!
it is funny seeing them in color as much as seeing my three sons in color but hugh and jerry looked amazing in color
Larry Shaver I seen Jerry in color,I saw him in feel life and had my picture taken with him,nice guy
Not feel, real
This is wild.
Thank you.
48 still watching
I know what you mean. :)
Wish I was back there now.
And if that is a 1953 Chevy, we had that car in the same colors yellow and green with a sun visor.
Good old days😢
Very nice gem! Why was it filmed in color? I bet it was immensely expensive at the time.
Gus Messenger So you missed the moral message when you saw the Leave To Beaver as a kid? Just kidding...
What gets me is there is a water shortage in CA for the living and they have to water that entire cemetery to keep the grass green for the dead. Morals is one thing, but 'sacred tradition' is another.
Morals,very rare today...
Diane Godbout if you have good morals now jealous people criticize, I still believe in good morals,that's why I loved the show
Looks like Leave It To Beaver in color.
Regardless, they are still in business... 3888 Workman Mill Rd, Whittier, CA 90601
Glad we have seat belts now.
wow..I am really thinking now.
The Brady bunch dad was a good portrayal too
Was this the first known infomercial?.
The clevers were the perfect family no one acts like this in real life. They were funny to me
Remember, when life happens, we are here to help you and your family when you are going to assume room temperature and take the forever dirt nap. We want to be your friend here at Rigor Mortis Mortuary.
Thank you Eddie Haskell.
morals... a word that evidently you dont know

To be fair, seventy years is a long time. It's the worthwhile contributions you provide that give the feeling of extra time.
AustinGermanGeek You stop thinking 70 years is a long time once you turn 40. Trust me, 70 years is transient and ephemeral.
Remembering 1992
That does make a lot of sense. My first decade felt so long, but my second decade went by quicker. I assumed that the feeling of such a quick pace would've stopped soon.
Marvcohen You wish!
Hugh was zaddy
I love hugh
