Interview: Jerry Mathers

In the full interview recorded at Silicon Valley Comic Con, SIDEWALKS host Richard R. Lee interviews Jerry Mathers about his early start in show business at age 2; getting the role of "The Beaver;" his favorite episode; and why we haven't seen episodes of the sequel series, "The New Leave It to Beaver," on TV anymore.

** Richard's note to viewers watching the interview**
I did a slip of the tongue when I said "Jerry MATTERS." I didn't even realized I said that. I do know his name ... especially NOW! Many fans have commented on that. LOL. I try to do a good interview for a general audience, as well as fans. Honestly, I wish I had more time to prepare, but unfortunately, we don't know who we are going to interview that day. I asked them at their respective booths and surprisingly they both said "yes." A minute later, I am on-camera with Jerry (Tony followed soon after). Many things are going through my mind, as well as structuring an interview (and episode) on the fly. Of course, this is not an excuse, but hopefully an understanding on what's happening during these interviews. Regardless, I really enjoyed talking to these two. I am a fan of the "Leave It to Beaver" series, although it has been a while since I watched a full episode. As a kid, I grew up watching the show. These two are living legends!!!! Fortunately, there are some people who like the interviews, and there are others who can get pass the "Matters" part. I completely understand. As somebody wrote previously in a comment, I'm a lunkhead. I'm embarrassed that my mispronunciation destroyed viewers enjoyment. I welcome your comments, and I am not afraid on hearing your honest comments. Seriously, your comments makes me a better interviewer. I hope I will get a chance to interview Jerry again. I will mention to him that I made a mistake during this interview and the fans' comments that followed. One last thing, a reminder (mainly to me), Jerry MATHERS!!! Thanks for reading, Richard, Co-Host / Executive Producer ***
