Who did it: Opie or Beaver?

These little troublemakers each had their own twist on TV boyhood.

Opie and Beaver had a lot in common as they experienced growing pains on early-'60s TV. They each struggled with teachers, crushes and house rules, learning hard life lessons and building good, strong morals.

The writers of The Andy Griffith Show and Leave It to Beaver had to work hard to make their small-town boys unique, and they succeeded. Fans of both shows would never confuse the two.

Or would they? Here, we've pulled episode summaries from these cherished family sitcoms to put your memory to the test. Can you remember which boy is which from just a plot detail? Take the quiz now and find out. 

Only the biggest fans will get 9 or more right. Good luck!
