5. The show had the first “series finale” with flashbacks
Prior to Leave it to Beaver only one show ever had a designated “series finale” to finish it off, which was Howdy Doody in 1960. Leave it to Beaver ended with a retrospective flashback episode called “Family Scrapbook” where all the characters gather to reminisce over old photographs. It was a nice way to wrap up a series rather than just ending abruptly with some random episode. Flashbacks are now a commonly used device on TV sitcoms and dramas, and most long running series cap off with a grand finale.
