‘Leave It to Beaver’ had an amazing character, Eddie Haskell. Before then, kids in situation comedies were wholesome Opie Taylor types.

Then came Eddie.

Eddy grew up to be a cop and was severely injured in a shootout.

The first time you saw Eddie, no matter how young you were, you KNEW he was a wiseass the second he opened his mouth.

Then came Eddie.

In the little town we lived in back in the early 1960s, there was a much older kid who I thought looked and acted just like Eddie Haskell. I finally mentioned this to my mom and dad when watching the show, and they both started laughing. I was told to keep my observation within the family, etc, but they did confirm the resemblances.

Eddie asked as Mrs. Cleaver preparing dinner.
