Now Ward, don't be so hard on the beaver!

That's funny. I always suspected that most of those notes they showed were bogus. I'm guessing that they stopped doing this right about the time people started getting much better TV sets. Then again, I'm pretty sure that even if I did a freeze frame I wouldn't have been able to make all of that out, unless I had it on DVD.

This is a funny little note about a funny little note.

From the page: "I was watching an episode from the second season (1958-59) of "Leave It to Beaver" tonight. When I got to the part where Ward reads a note from Beaver's principal, Mrs. Rayburn. If you freeze-frame the note it says..."

A peek inside the making of "Leave It to Beaver".

The thing modern technology can do that producers did not anticipate in the 60s Here's what the letter really says. Mr. Ward Cleaver 485 Mapleton Drive Mayfield, State My Dear Mr. Cleaver: This paragraph has absolutely nothing to do with anything. It is here merely to fill up space. Still, it is words, rather than repeated letters, since the latter might not give the proper appearance, namely, that of an actual note. For that matter, all of this is nonsense, and the only part of this that is to be read is the last paragraph, which part is the inspired creation of the producers of this very fine series. Another paragraph of stuff. Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their party. The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog. My typing is lousy, but the typewriter isn't so hot either. After all, why should I take the blame for these mechanical imperfections, with which all of us must contend. Lew Burdette just hit a home run and Milwaukee leads seven to one in the series. This is the last line of the filler material of the note. No, my mistake, that was only the next to last. This is last. I hope you can find a suitable explanation for Theodore's unusual conduct. Yours truly, Cornelia Rayburn

An easter egg in Leave it to Beaver only discovered 50 years later. Its pretty funny too especially considering how lame Leave it to Beaver usually is.
