Everyone I knew growing up loved the character of Eddie Haskell. He was the perfect foil for the "perfect parents" of Wally and Beave. Rebelliousness is a natural process for kids growing up as they try to find their own way. I think a lot of kids could identify with the "dark side" of Eddie's manipulative behavior and epitomized the anti-hero which was to become a regular part of the culture at the time. Somehow he was so believable and that made him really funny. He seemed to relish his role. RIP Eddie. His life with the LAPD showed he was a stand up guy. Glad to hear he had a good life and family.
