Thats right Connelly and Mosher from Leave it to Beaver.These two writers did such a wonderful job capturing and incapsulating the innocenence and wholesomeness of America.The Norman Rockwell of TV shows as it were. A far cry from the disgusting,dysfucntional,and anti family bilge on TV these days!

I've got a job, a secretary, a mother, two ex-wives and several bartenders that depend upon me

I'd say it's the innocence and wholesomeness of youth, unspoiled by the vulgarity and trash talk which so many today consider not just normal but acceptable.

Whatever the case, Connelly and Mosher's script is very, very good.

Oh man so true, the crap that passes for "entertainment" today just breaks my heart...
