After years of calling everyone Gertrude, it turns out Eddie Haskell eventually married a woman with that very same name, and we get to meet his wife “Gert” (Ellen Maxted) for the first time in this 17th commercial-free episode of the Still the Beaver revival series called “Give and Take” that debuted on The Disney Channel July 3, 1985.
To no one’s surprise, Gert has to put up with a lot of aggravation from Eddie, and he finally pushes her to the breaking point when he forgets a double dinner date they had with Wally and Mary Ellen, so she kicks him out of the house. That sends Eddie running to June and Beaver Cleaver for a meal and a bed, which tries the patience of the entire Cleaver family, forces Wally and Eddie’s Son Freddie (Eric Osmond) to try to try to get the couple back together, and eventually leads to Eddie finally having a rare moment of humility.
This is the 17th of 26 episodes in 1984-85 before the series featuring most of the original cast of Leave it to Beaver, including Jerry Mathers and Tony Dow, moved to WTBS Superstation for three more seasons under the name The New Leave it to Beaver from 1986-89.
These videos are taken from my Betamax VCR personal recordings of the show when it originally aired.
