Significance
"Family Scrapbook" has claimed its place in television history as the first traditional prime time series finale. No other series prior to Leave It to Beaver had a special final episode except "Howdy Doody" in 1960 (which didn't use flashbacks and was not a prime time sitcom). Most series ended with a general story line episode not unlike any other episode in the series.
