Leave It to Beaver was a classic sitcom that aired for six seasons from 1957 to 1963. It was immensely popular in the United States during the time that it aired, and decades later, it is still referenced in a lot of pop culture. This iconic sitcom followed the young son of the Cleaver Family, Theodore. Among his friends and family, however, he was known more commonly as "The Beaver," which is where the name of the sitcom came from.

Two writers, Joe Connelly and Bob Mosher, got the idea for the show after observing their children. They realized just how interesting and hilarious the life and viewpoint of a child could be, and thus the original idea for Leave It to Beaver was born. While most classic sitcoms focused on families, the main characters were usually adults. When Leave It to Beaver aired, it was the first primetime sitcom that was centered around the life of a child. It was also groundbreaking because while Beaver got into plenty of trouble as a young boy, his parents were never viewed as the perfect caregivers. The show often displayed the struggles of parenting, something every American family could relate to.

This lovable show ended on June 20th, 1963, in a natural and satisfying way. As the main character Beaver prepares to enter high school, his elder brother, Wally, prepared to leave for college. Because much of the show focused on their dynamic as brothers, it wouldn't make sense for the show to continue running after the two were separated.

Even though the show ended long ago, however, it remains popular in many households across America, and reruns still air on some channels. While the show never won any awards, much of the older generation can agree that the show played an important part in American culture.

Of course, while most people are aware of the on-screen events of this lovable sitcom, there are many behind the scenes facts that few are aware of.
