I watch at least one episode each day of both TAGS and Leave it to Beaver.  One 
thing I have noticed.  While the Cleaver's are always after Wally and Beaver to 
take baths, I can only remember one time during the entire 8 years of TAGS that 
Opie had to take a bath.  And that was when Malcolm made him and Andy bathe 
before dinner.  Are there any other times when Opie was told to take a bath?  
There must be but I just cannot remember them.  Help me out here folks.  Now I 
grew up when baths were a weekly event rather than daily.  We didn't have a 
water heater ( notice I didn't say hot water heater) until I was in high 
school, so with four kids in the house it was a real chore to have to heat up 
all that water on the top of a stove.  And we didn't have central heating 
either, so in the winter taking a bath was really an unpleasant occurrence.  I 
was so happy when I got to high school and we were required to take a shower 
after phy ed.  I had phy ed every day too, so that was wonderful.
