This sitcom defines the "golly gee" wholesomeness of 1950s and `60s TV, where dad Ward Cleaver always gets home in time for dinner, mom June cleans the house wearing a dress and pearls, and kids Wally and the Beav always learn a lesson by the end of the episode. Wally's friend, Eddie Haskell, causes trouble while kissing up to Mr. and Mrs. Cleaver.

11/11/2018 As the Cleaver kids get to be teenagers, it opens up the show for plenty more types of stories and laughs, one of the highlights of this season being Wally's Weekend Job, where he takes a part-time job at a soda fountain and Eddie Haskell tries to prank him by ordering six quarts of ice cream to be delivered to a birthday party - which of course goes hilariously awry.
