Tony Dow,Wally on Leave It To Beaver,at 77

TomásEstefan said:
RIP Tony...Your character Wally, along with Jerry Mather's Beaver (or as Eddie Haskell said "Young Theodore ") were characters that we could all relate to growing up, Hugh Beaumont played a great Dad, but Barbara Billingsley's "Mom" was such a stereotyped representation of a 1950s Housewife even then, it seemed almost comic. In fact everyone should checkout Barbara Billingsley's cameo role in "Airplane" she was brilliant, a real gem.

I have this memory of a TV character being visited in a dream or something by Barbara Billingsley and all the stay-at-home moms from TV and being told they weren't so perfect because they had jobs, acting on TV.
