...

Oh wow.

Not sure I'm going to be able to open this thread daily.

This is just tragic.

Loved Eddie.

Eddie hands down was the best character on that show.

And 100% he wanted to bang Mrs. Cleaver

Ward was ok with that, he even talked her into it...

Osmond turned in what was supposed to be a one-episode role as Wally Cleaver’s best friend, Eddie Haskell, on TV’s Leave It to Beaver in 1957.

But Eddie soon was promoted to a series regular — a character so iconic that he inspired Bart Simpson. (Simpsons creator Matt Groening conceived of his show as Son of Eddie Haskell.)

Jerry Mathers, who played Beaver, called Eddie “the poster child for sneaky, rotten kids everywhere.”

Typecast, Osmond quit showbiz to become an LAPD motorcycle cop, and he survived two shootings. After which, he quit the force and revived the Eddie character in The New Leave It to Beaver (1984-1989).

Osmond stayed in touch with costar Mathers (and with the LAPD colleague who saved his life from the gunman) for the rest of his life.

Typecast forever, had to go become a motorcycle cop.

Unreal.

I suppose he could have been on the tv show CHiPs after that?

There had to some Warriors style gig, but obviously earlier, where he plays a bad guy. I mean...something out there.

That's so crazy how Hollywood just spits out a young guy like that.

Yet here we still have Theodore "Ted" Logan in every Keanu Reeves movie.

Just crazy.
