Created by Joe Connelly and Bob Mosher, and starred by Barbara Billingsley, Hugh Beaumont, Tony Dow, and Jerry Mathers, Leave it to Beaver houses a library of 234 episodes about the life of an idealized American family of the 1950s. The popularity of the show is attributed to the riveting content, the innocence of each family memebers, and the effectiveness of narration in the point of view of a young boy. The forerunner of television situation comedy, this show invoked the rise of sitcom in place of the waning radio comedy.
