Every wonder where are they now?
Today, I take another nostalic and historic memory lane road trip. In this episode, I visit the famous gravesites of some of the cast members of the classic 1950s and '60s TV sitcom LEAVE IT TO BEAVER.
GRAVESITES VISITED:
Burt Mustin, Forest Lawn Memorial Park, Hollywood Hills, CA
Doris Packer, Forest Lawn Memorial Park, Glendale, CA
Frank Bank, Hillside Memorial Park, Culver City, CA
Barbara Billingsly, Woodlawn Cemetery, Santa Monica, CA,
Other cast members who were buried out of state or who were cremated and have no final resting place to visit, include: Ken Osmond, Hugh Beaumont, Richard Deacon, Sue Randall, and Stanley Fafara.
I also remember the cast members who are still living: Jerry Mathers, Tony Dow, Stephen Talbot, Rusty Stevens, Jeri Weil, Rich Correll, Buddy Joe Hooker and Tiger Fafara.
In addition, I visit the CBS Studio Center (formerly Republic Pictures) in Studio City, California, where Leave It To Beaver was filmed. Included with this visit is a walk down the Studio City Walk of Fame.
Thanks for joining me on my travels on yet another trip to the past, down memory lane.

Such a great show, I still watch it often. RIP Tony Dow!
He was cremated and his ashes given to family, so he has no final resting place to visit at this time.
Who remembers when Beaver fell into the bowl of soup on the billboard sign? One of my favorite episodes. And when Barbara Billingsley was on the movie Airplane talking jive? I fell out of my seat laughing. Good memories. Thanks Steve. 😊
Oh my gosh I just watched it the other day ..👍
The soup episode...great for it's time! 🍵
Lol thanks for those memories Sue 😂👍
I liked the episode where Wally had gas, and they just honked over it.
Scooter Dover OMGosh I forgot about that episode! I am laughing just thinking about it.
Leave it to Beaver was such a great show and I still watch the reruns it never gets old
❤️ eddie & wally hangout
❤️ eddies
This show was sweet, warm, and comforting.
Im 66 years old and find myself crying many times when I see the love in this family!! Hugh Beaumont lives in me!!
I'm 47. I grew up watching the reruns and I still watch on peacock. It's one of my comfort shows. It's something that I can put on to unwind at the end of the day and just relax. 😊
This is an example of the wholesome programs they used to have not like some of the garbage they got on the air now
Just shows the breakdown of the society. I wish we could go back to that way of living.
❤️ oldies tv;& movies like dracula: franklenstein : cannot recreated 1930s ; 1940s ;; it seem more real;; don"t know the actors & actress
Exactly!
Great timing. I am watching Leave it to Beaver on TV right now.
LOL that is good timing. 😊👍
Wow. So am I on ME TV!
Me too!!! On MeTV
You can also watch it on Peacock tv , it’s all seasons for free!
I watch the show twice every morning. This is part of my daily routine. I was heartbroken when Eddie passed away. I loved his character. He was hilarious 😃 ❤
Rest In Peace Eddie. 😢
Eddie was my hero
RIP Ken Osmond 🙏 😢 AKA Eddie!
@@marlenepearson3936 ❤️ eddie my hero : eddie did an monster tv episode too
I know right?! I just got through binging all 6 seasons on Tubi.
Couldn't watch the final episode cause I didn't want it to end.
Wished my family was like that.
Eddie was a character wasn't he?!!🤣🤣👍🏼👍🏼That laugh of his, always had some witty zingers!!
I loved watching this show as a kid, especially the early years. Who else remembers Barbara Billingsly as the jive talking woman in Airplane! ? Great stuff! Thanks, Steve!
i had forgotten about that. thanks for the reminder, dave :-)
@@zingwilder9989 I remember shock, then uncontrollable laughter after seeing it for the first time. It never get old, either :D
@@zingwilder9989 Exactly! It really worked in the theater, better than most other gags, it seemed.
I forgot about that until you reminded us! Loved seeing her in that part!😁
This is still my husband's favorite show. I will have to have him watch this. Thanks for the great videos.
Thanks Sue 😊👍
I was hoping that you would do a vlog about Leave it to Beaver. I’m glad they are showing re-runs on tv. Hugh Beaumont is one of my favorite all time tv dads. ♥️
One of my favorite TV shows Leave It to Beaver and Father Knows Best and Dennis the Menace and Hazel
Do you remember back in the 70’s when Dairy Queen collabed with “ Dennis The Menace” ?
As a kid I have watched every single one of Leave it to Beaver.
Ditto. I met Jerry Mathers a couple of years ago at a comic show. He was soo nice.
HAVE YOU EVER SEEN THE FIRST EPISODE? DIFFERENT WARD AND WALLY...
Yes I do remember seeing that. Just felt wrong watching it.
I AGREE
Never seen that first episode
"LEAVE IT TO BEAVER" TV's first family from a kid's perspective. What a great TV show. Hard act to follow. It's the gift that keeps on giving.
Wow Steve. Everytime you're at Forest Lawn Hollywood, I wonder if my Mother is laid to rest near any celebrities in the ' Love And Kindness ' section. Just as you were panning across the grounds it looked as if you were very near her sight. She was an amazing gospel singer but only locally recognized. This adventure also brought back memories of my daughter defending ' Leave It To Beaver ' in a discussion class at her Jr. High School many years ago. She found the show totally relatable largely to the father figure. He loved his boys but wasn't afraid to discipline when warranted. Although she never said it, I guess I was her ' Ward ' . She's in her mid thirties now but I've never forgotten that. Thanks again for another wonderful journey.
Thanks for sharing the memory of your mother with us Howard. And that very nice memory from your daughters childhood. 😊👍
I loved Gus! I worked with an Eddie Haskell-type person. Leave it to Beaver was my favorite television show. Thank you for the video, Steve!
I have always loved this show and I still watch it today. How many shows can someone watch over and over again and not get tired of it. Great cast and morals. RIP Barbara, Hugh and Tony. ❤❤❤❤
Steve, I watched an interview on CZcams that Burt Mustin did with Johnny Carson back in 1975. He was 90 y/o at the time, still doing well physically and was mentally sharp. A very intelligent and interesting man.
That’s so neat to hear. Thanks for sharing that with us jtx 😊
Steve:
Thank you very much for uploading this of Leave it to Beaver.

Thanks for watching it Silva 😊👍
Such a great show and very well written. Thanks for doing this vlog. Well done!
Thanks for watching and commenting jacques 😊👍
I loved this series as a child & “love it now!” He does the best job on these videos & I so love his interesting style in filming these videos! His voice too is great to listen to but I love the topics he chooses to showcase! Fantastic video! I love this video that he did!🥰
Thank you Karen! I appreciate you saying that 😊👍
Absolutely love this show and still watch it today thanks to reruns. I have the first season on DVD. My fav character was Eddy Haskell. Played brilliantly by Ken Osmond, RIP Ken. Thanks for another very well done video, stay cool!
Thanks Sewer Gal 😊👍
Leave it to Beaver is priceless !!! TY all involved !
As the author of what many, even one of the still living cast members, call the best Leave it to Beaver book ever ("The World Famous Beaverpedia") I want to thank you for sharing this video. I had never seen a video of the Radford studios before, although I do have an aerial view of the studio on the back cover of my book. Thanks again.
This is one of my favorite shows, Actually I watch it everyday ❤️
Loved this show so much what characters never will forget them such a sweet show
I'm not old enough to have watched the original show in its heyday, but I had a study hall teacher that used to watch The New Leave it to Beaver in their classroom and we got to see it. They certainly don't make shows like they used to. Thanks for sharing! By the way, so good to see people out and about there instead of everywhere looking like a ghost town. I love farmers markets!
Thanks as always for watching and commenting MJF 😊👍
As always, you do a fantastic job with your research and presentation. Thanks for your hard work.☺ I really enjoy watching your channel.
Thanks Donna! That’s nice of you to say and I’m glad you enjoy my channel 😊👍
@@TheGraveyardChannel You're welcome.☺ Have a wonderful and safe weekend.
Burt Mustin was from my neck of the woods, he was a Pittsburgh native. He had appeared on Phyllis. His character, Arthur Lanson, married Mother Dexter, played by Judith Lowry. They both passed away within two months of each other. Barbara Billingsley will always be June Cleaver. But I still chuckle when I think of her as that jive talkin' mama from Airplane. That was inspired casting.
Gus the fireman
I remember the show fondly. You can visit the Cleaver house. It's part of the Universal Studios tour.
I really wanted to but the studio tours are all closed right now. Thanks Chizzie 😊👍
@@TheGraveyardChannel I believe the Clever house also doubled as the "Marcus Welby MD" house.
@@alivenwell14 yes it did. Also saw the house on Columbo, The Rockford Files
Another great video Steve love watching your channel.
Thanks Plymouth duster! I’m always happy to hear that 😊👍
I've been binge watching LITB ever since Wally died. I grew up with the show. RIP, Tony Dow🙏
Really cool! Rest In Peace all the actors you profiled , the b e a v e was awesome 😎👈🙌👏
Gee Wally that Steve guy did a pretty neat vlog. Wally to Beaver Beaver what the heck is a vlog. Beaver to Wally I dunno ill ask Eddie Haskel when I see him .. Great Job Steve. Loved that show when I was a kid.
LOL Thanks for the laugh Dana 😂👍
Still love watching it.
I loved the show, "Leave it to Beaver" and still do. It definitely was a classic show. RIP Barbara, Hugh and Ken. You were all part of a wonderful show. Gus,the fireman was awesome and gave "The Beav" and Larry Mondello great advice. Greetings from Canada 🇨🇦🤗
Thanks for watching and commenting from Canada Kim 😊👍
I watched repeats of this all the time when I was a kid!
I loved Leave it to Beaver . I still do !! Thanks for sharing this video with us !!
Thanks for watching at Bonnie 😊👍
I met Ken Osmond and Frank Bank back in 2003 when they came to Tacoma WA for an autographs show. They were very nice, and never gave me the business!
That’s awesome! Thanks for sharing this memory with us Jeff 😊👍
Thank you Steve!! Always enjoy the memories of the 50's and 60's tv shows.
Thanks for watching and commenting Wayman 😊👍
Leave it to Beaver was one of my favorite show. Wally and Beaver reminded me of my older brother and me. We were both two or three years younger, but about the same age different. Still watch it as it a holsom show with good moral values.
I said this once before man I'm old LOL thank you for sharing
LOL join the club 😊👍
Great vlog! Your narration is excellent! Apparently Barbara Billingsley owned a steak house as well. In the 80's, I dined with a friend of mine there. One of the best steaks that I ever had! There were "Leave it to Beaver" pictures in the foyer mounted on the walls. The restaurant, called "Billingsley's" was located, I think on Vanowen, very close to the Van Nuys Airport.
Oh wow! I had no idea. Fun to know. Thanks for sharing this with us, Carlos!
I remember seeing Burt Mustin in Dragnet and Emergency! and even a Brady Bunch episode. He showed up in a lot of shows.
Jesse James killed my father 😔that was a sad part in the Brady bunch
He sure was popular back in the day wasn’t he?
@@TheGraveyardChannel oh most definitely. He appeared in one episode of Sanford and son when Fred went to the old folks home 🏡
I'd forgotten about him being in the Brady Bunch. He was in the Jesse James episode as someone who saw Jesse James shoot his family.
@@Thomas116-m2n I vaguely remember that. He was trying to teach a young boy a lesson not to make folk heroes of twisted criminals. It was a brilliant part that he played.
Burt Mustin was from Pittsburgh Pa, where I live
I loved all the characters he played over the years on the different TV shows
I always liked Barbara Billingsley's cameo in Airplane the movie.
Thanks for yet another great interesting video Steve. I recall watching reruns of Leave it to Beaver on early morning television in the 80s here in Australia. Sad to see in your video how so many members of the cast died too young. Hope you are keeping well.
That’s neat to know that it aired in Australia too! Thanks for sharing that with us Anthony 😊👍
Funniest cast of kids to have ever been...beaver's friends and Wally's!
This is awesome I love the show Leave it to Beaver it's a great show it's also my mother's favorite show keep up the awesome videos Steve
Thanks for sharing that with us Adam 😊👍
I met Jerry Mathers (the Beaver) when he was older and grown up.
That must’ve had fun. Thanks for sharing with us toneman 😊👍
We watched Leave It To Beaver every week when I was a kid. We always had pop-corn and a R.C. cola. The fun part was back then you had to watch TV in real time, no pausing with the DVR so if you had to go to the rest room you just to wait... Great video....
Yes, VCRs didn't arrive until much later. If you missed a show it was gone until summer reruns, and maybe not even then. They filmed 39 episodes per season in those days! Cable tv didn't even come to my city until 1989! Up until then we only had 7 channels, but if the weather was really clear I might pick up a few across the lake from Canada!
Have you ever done My Three Sons? I would like to see that! Thank you again for another few minutes remembering one of my favorite shows, Leave it to Beaver! Hope your mom is getting along fine. I’d like to see her in another video soon. Happy Trails!
Yes, I already have vlogged my three sons. If you search on my channel you can find it watch it. Thanks Jackie 😊👍
I thought My 3 Sons was filmed at DesiLu not Republic studios.
You should do an update and show where Wally is buried.
There was a story going around that while he was a cop Eddie Haskell pulled a car over and that driver turned out to be Tony Dow.
Thank you Steve for sharing your video loved that show I don't know most of the cast members died some I did hope you are having a great day and staying safe out there.
thanks, Olivia and you too!
Thanks for sharing the grave sites of The Leave t To Beaver Cast ! Used to watch the reruns as a kid back in the 60s . It ended in 63 or 64 but had it in reruns after that ! I still watch the reruns !
Thanks 👍
You're doing great with these, Steve. It's always refreshing in this chaotic time to hear your voice saying "Hi friends". I hope life is being good to you and to your family. Many blessings.
Thanks Fallon! Life is awesome! I hope it is for you and your family too 😊👍
I grew up watching those guys! Thanks for looking them up for us.
Thanks for watching and commenting Peg 😊👍

I love these walks down emory lane Steve... Nice to see all those Beaver friends (all my age) are still around and kicking... Thanks you Be Safe and Be careful Stay out of that heat and sun my friend....
I know. I forget that I’m not a kid anymore and that the heat can really be a killer. I’m trying to pay attention to that much more these days. Especially after this last trip. Thanks Ted 😊👍
Very good 👍 vlog buddy 👌👏 I just watched beaver on MeTV.. very good show thanks Steve and a many happy travels to you my friend..
Thanks David 😊👍
I really enjoyed this video! I watched the show later in the 70’s as re-runs, and this brought back fond memories. Over time, Eddie became my favorite character.
Me too! Thanks Staci 😊👍
These were some shows that were fun to watch they showed good American values.
Wow love leave it to beaver 🙂
Hey Steve!!! Thanks For Sharing This Log !!!! I Always Watching Leave It To Beaver It's One Of Favorite T.V. Shows Of All Time !!! Good Job Steve!!! Be Safe !!!😊👍

Loved Doris Packer. She was on an episode of My Favorite Martian as Miss Pringle. One-off my favorites!
Good Morning Steve!! Happy Burt Mustin Day!!
Good morning Anthony! LOL yes, happy Bert Mustin day 😊 👍
"Beaver" is a classic example of a typical late-50s/early-60s sitcom. Rest in peace, Barbara, Hugh and Tony.
Hi Steve! Outstanding research as always! Leave It To Beaver was a big part of my childhood television watching! Thank you for sharing!👍😀📺
Thanks Bill! Hope your new job is going well. BTW I am sharing those two photos you sent me recently in my Vlog that should go live next Monday 😊👍

Very nice. Great show, and great characters too. Good to get an update and all the extra info about the show and people. : )
Thank you I grew up with leave it to beaver. Thanks for all you do.
Thanks Terry 😊👍
I watch the show pretty much everyday! Still love it❤!
When I was in high school in the mid-70s, Ken Osmond was my local LAPD officer. He usually was on a motorcycle. One day when I was with a group of friends in a car, my friend was speeding on city streets. Ken Osmond pulled him over. In his best Eddie Haskill voice, he said, what are you doing Sam, driving with your head under your armpit? He gave my friend a warning. We said, no, give him a ticket, we want your autograph!
OMG LOL that is so hilarious and must’ve seems so surreal! Thanks for sharing this with us Jim! This is one of my favorite comments of all time 😊👍
@@TheGraveyardChannel He worked out of Foothill Division serving the community of Sunland-Tujunga which is located about 15 miles from the Rose Bowl. I think it was the late 70s when he did a routine traffic stop he was shot several times in his chest. His bullet-proof vest saved his life.
I was born in 1953 and loved , Leave it to Beaver!
Awesome vlog Steve! Loved Leave it to Beaver! This brought back memories of fun and laughter!
FaceTime Jan! I’m glad to hear that 😊👍
Love watching leave it to beaver ty steve for another beautiful memory 💕
Thanks Linda 😊👍
WOW THAT WAS A GREAT VIDEO LEAVE IT TO BEAVER IS DEFINITELY ONE OF THE GREATEST TV SHOWS OF ALL TIME I WATCH IT ALL THE TIME ON METV THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING AND TAKE CARE
Thanks for watching and showing with us phantom collector 😊👍
Great job Steve. It was a great family show to watch.
loved this show I watched every eposide and the reruns as a kid
I had the fortunate opportunity of meeting Jerry Mathers and having him join me on my morning live radio show in Harrisburg, Pa. about 15 years ago. Jerry was one of the best actors I've had the opportunity to interview and learn so much of what took place behind the scenes that I don't think a lot of people were aware of. I was just a kid then when the show was on and never missed an episode. This and having done much research prior to Jerry joining me on my show, it was a true honor. Thank You Jerry!
Thanks, one of my favorite old shows
Everyone wanted that comforting home . Yes no cell phones we use to walk or drive to our friends . Good times . Say that would be a good video Good Times another good show
Good suggestion Lucile 😊👍
Liked watching this show plus as they grew and the reunions
I always would enjoy watching this program of Leave it to Beaver every single day when I was much younger. Every single day was another to be taught.
How I miss this program very much but here is one piece of advise: now that we are grown ups and have to stay indoors during this quarentine, at least we can see episodes of Leave it to Beaver.
Please think positive at all times. ©®

I wish I could post more Silva, but these videos are extremely time consuming and take weeks or months or even years to create. I’m lucky I can do one or two a week 😊

My wife loved the hunting jacket episode. She would cry every time she watched it. Sure enough I got a hunting jacket on Christmas.
I watch leave it to beaver every morning on METV. Great one Steve. 😎 I always get a laugh when they call someone a " real creep" 😂 Lumpy was comedy on the show. BART SIMPSON is the son of Eddie Haskel...just ask Matt Groening.
It sure is a classic! Thanks for watching and commenting Klearski 😊👍
Is the name pronounced Fa FAR a? I also read that Richard Deacon was from the Binhamton area in upstate NY
I watch that show every morning
