DVD Leave It to Beaver - The Complete Second Season
The second season of Leave It to Beaver finds the Cleaver family happy and wholesome as ever, with most episodes involving the Beaver getting into a scrape, or hearing the from-the-mountaintop advice from Mom or Dad afterwards. Despite the formula, the episodes hold up well, because of the earnestness of the actors and the delivery of their lines, which is, well, swell. Mom June (Barbara Billingsley) is the matriarch who makes it all look easy in her well-pressed frocks and pearls (pay close attention to those necklaces--there are actually several; some plain strands and some with pendants), and Dad Ward (Hugh Beaumont) is thoughtful and a little monolithic. But it's the adventures of boys, older brother Wally (Tony Dow) and the Beav (Jerry Mathers), that make the show so fun. One episode involves Beav and pal Larry (Rusty Stevens) playing hooky (they're late to school anyway, and they figure they may as well get "killed" later as opposed to today), and then winding up on live TV, on a show which June just happens to be watching. Moral? Golly gee, there's more than one, and they're delivered by both parents and Beav's teacher--and echoed earnestly by Beaver himself. The chuckles come in a ready stream, even if sometimes inadvertently. Sample exchange: Wally: "Mom, can I get tattooed?" June: "Tattooed!? Absolutely not!" Wally: "Oh, OK. Bye." No wonder people are so nostalgic for the '50s--teenagers never gave anyone any lip. This season, 1957-58, contains 39 remastered episodes on three double-sided discs, and is a treasure box of nostalgia, in the absolute best sense. --A.T. Hurley
Review(s): DVD Leave It to Beaver - The Complete Second Season
WELL............
COME ON GUYS, YOU GAVE US THE FIRST TWO SEASONS WHICH WE ARE GREATFUL FOR BUT WHERE IS THE REST ??
Excellent quality great fun to watch!
My family loves all the "Leave it to Beaver" episodes, as we recorded them in the past. I was NOT at all dissapointed at the quality of these movies, and they are well worth buying if you like this show.
Excellent season of an excellent comedy
The second season was simply excellent. There are many classic episodes of Beaver, Wally and their friends (and even their parents) getting into situations and learning 'life lessons' in the process. Very comical and charming, this set is an excellent addition to any home DVD collection. Having been at a similar age in the early '60s, I can relate back to some of the predicaments my brother and I got into when I watch some of these episodes.

The sixth and final season of I Love Lucy finds new laughs in some old formulas while also expanding the hugely popular shows horizons with a change of scene. Things get off to a familiar start when Lucy Ricardo (Lucille Ball) gets in the middle of husband Rickys business--in this case, disguising herself as a hot dog salesman at Yankee Stadium in order to get near Bob Hope. Hope, she believes, has ignored Rickys offer to be the first act at his new nightclub. But, in fact, Hope had already agreed; Ricky was just sitting on the information to keep Lucy from getting typically ditzy in front of one of his celebrity pals. Not surprisingly, mayhem follows when poor Hope finds his hand slathered with condiments and his noggin bonked by a foul ball. Other celebrity...
