Exactly a year after the final episode of Leave it to Beaver, Tony Dow (Wally Cleaver) guest starred as Gilbert Thornbury on an episode of My Three Sons called Guest in the House on May 28, 1964. The three brothers are suspicious of every seemingly innocent move the glasses-wearing Gilbert makes, suspecting he is a delinquent who is going to cause trouble.
