Beaver's big brother

Dow was 12 years old when he was cast as Wally Cleaver, the handsome, earnest older brother to Theodore "The Beaver" Cleaver, played by Jerry Mathers. Sibling rivalry, neighborhood mischief, school crushes. The feel-good, family comedy was a hit with audiences beginning in the late 1950s. Leave It To Beaver was also white-bread. As Common Sense Media put it, the series was "a very isolated look at a white, American suburban middle-class family." Still, Leave It To Beaver is in reruns on Peacock.

Political because of the "white-bread" comment from NPR. Can we not even note the passing of a child star from a popular TV show from 60 years ago without using the SJW retrospective lens?

Lefties ruin everything and our tax dollars pay for NPR to lead the charge.

I think it's ironic that I just watched the whole LITB series on Tubi and he passes the day I watch the last episode.

White people were ~88% of the population when this show aired and suburbia was the demographic change post WWII in this time period.

God f'ing forbid that a show looks like and represents the VAST majority of the population of its own era.

Leftist are essentially pursuing a Satanic agenda now. Leave it to Beaver was a clean show depicting an ideal family that was a good example to millions. I'm a better father today for having watched all those Leave it to Beaver reruns as a kid. The actor who played Ward was actually a preacher in real life. There's no surprise that the completely debased, vile left is critical of this show.

• (Theodore "Beaver" Cleaver) "Hey Wally, how come Dad's taking us out to dinner and a show?"
• (Wally Cleaver) "I don't know; I think it's on account of togetherness; like you read about in the magazines. You know, it's supposed to make us a happy family and all that kind of junk."
• (Theodore "Beaver" Cleaver) "Couldn't we be a happy family just eatin' in the kitchen?"
• (Wally Cleaver) "Na, that's no good. Ya' gotta' go out and show people your a happy family."
