Corrected entry: When Ward is reading the article in the paper about Beaver saving a girl from drowning ("Local Boy in Lake Rescue"), the headline spells his name "Theodour." The misspelled headline is shown twice. (00:11:25 - 00:13:10)
Leave It To Beaver (1957)
1 corrected entry in season 4
Starring: Barbara Billingsley, Hugh Beaumont, Jerry Mathers, Tony Dow
Wally's Practical Joke - S6-E35
Visible crew/equipment: When Eddie Haskell comes over to scheme getting back at Lumpy, just as Eddie, Wally and Beaver are heading up the stairs, a mike boom is visible in the upper left corner.
Eddie Haskell: Look Sam, if you can make the other guy feel like a goon first, then you don't feel like so much of a goon.
Wally Cleaver: I don't get that.
Eddie Haskell: Of course you don't. That's because you never went to kindergarten with a home permanent.
Captain Jack - S1-E3
Trivia: The episode "Captain Jack" was the first time a toilet was shown on TV; the boys buy a baby alligator and Wally is shown putting it in the toilet tank. The network censors were so spooked by the thought of showing a toilet on television that they delayed the episode. And when the censors finally relented, the compromise allowed only the toilet tank to be shown, not the bowl.

Correction: I believe the misspelling of Theodore was intentional since later when Beaver read it he tells Wally "They misspelled my name."
