Did you know...
... that today is Leave It to Beaver's Birthday? In 1957, the
classic TV comedy premiered on CBS. Trivia fans: the first toilet "tank" ever shown on a TV show was on Leave It to Beaver. In 1957 the networks were squeamish enough about displaying a bathroom on television, let alone an actual
toilet. After several rounds of wrangling between the network
and the production company, a compromise was reached: The
episode could include shots of a toilet tank, but not the toilet itself. Problem solved! ;-)
