Leave It to Beaver

Gee, Wally!

Created by Bob Mosher

On ABC, CBS

A foundational family sitcom built on gentle misadventures and parental wisdom, where every problem resolves into a lesson and a smile.

An inquisitive and often naïve boy, Theodore 'The Beaver' Cleaver, has adventures at home, in school, and around his suburban neighborhood. The show also starred Barbara Billingsley and Hugh Beaumont as Beaver's parents, June and Ward Cleaver, and Tony Dow as Beaver's brother Wally. The show has attained an iconic status in the US, with the Cleavers exemplifying the idealized suburban family of the mid-20th century.
