 "Leave It to Beaver" is one of the first primetime sitcom series written from a child's point of view.Like several television dramas and sitcoms of the late 1950s and early 1960s ("Lassie" and "My Three Sons"), "Leave It to Beaver" is a glimpse of middle-class American boyhood.In a typical episode, Beaver gets into some sort of boyish scrape, then faces his parents for reprimand and correction.
