Everyone Missed These Hilarious ‘Leave It To Beaver’ Bloopers

Even though the television sitcom, Leave It to Beaver happened many decades ago, most people are familiar with it. Even if they don’t know the show directly, they know what you are discussing when you speak of it.

This isn’t because Leave It to Beaver was a flawless masterpiece. There were plenty of mistakes and issues happening behind the scenes that sometimes made it onto the screen.

One of the reasons why Leave It to Beaver was so popular is because it set a standard in the United States for family decency. When you compare it to other television programs that have come along since then, there really is no comparison.

The sitcom ran from 1957 until 1963 and the humor was always on point, and it was always wholesome. It was well-written and even today, people can appreciate the humor behind it.

There are some things that made it onto the screen, however, that were not quite right, and knowing this can help you appreciate the show even more.

June Cleaver’s Calendar – One mistake that most people missed is the calendar June Cleaver had hanging in her kitchen. Everything was always so well-kept in the kitchen but on the calendar, there was an update needed.

In the episode The Poor Loser, which was aired in 1963, the calendar was from 1961. Looking closely, you can also notice something on the tickets to the baseball game from that episode as well. Mayfield is misspelled Mayfied in the small print.

Fake Bee – In the episode, The Silent Treatment, Beaver is bothered by a bee while he is painting a door. If you look closely enough, you can see the string attached to the insect as it bounced around his face.
