cleverestbunny is right, LITB doesn't use catchphrases.
But there are some things the characters happen to say a lot (albeit they are still not catchphrases), many of which have been mentioned already by other posters.
Some other ones are:
"Gee..." (Michael already pointed this out as "Gee Wally," which does happen a lot...but Wally himself says "Gee" a lot too, without adding his own name after).
"Gee whiz..." (this is a variation on "Gee" that is sometimes used and sometimes not).
"Golly..." (this also is another substitute for "Gee" and/or "Gee whiz").
"Heck," (this is another substitute for "Gee" and/or "Gee whiz," albeit it has a slight different context from "Gee whiz" but not necessarily from "Gee").
"Metzger's Field" (Mayfield's go-to place for playing ball or having fights).
"Oh, brother!" (I'm not sure if Wally actually says this many times or not, but in my memory it seems like he does because of how it sticks out in my mind).
"Beat it" and/or "get lost" and/or "scram" (any of which are usually used instead of "go away").
"Beats me" and/or "search me" (used as substitutes for "I don't know").
"Boys!" (Ward and June both holler this a lot).
"Sam" (Eddie calls other people this a lot).
Eddie's laugh (this is probably the closest thing LITB has to a catchphrase).
"Take a bath"/"wash up"/"change your socks"/"Put on clean clothes," etc. - June (and sometimes Ward too) is always saying something like this to Beaver.

Another thing Ward says several times is "WARSH," as in "Beaver, go warsh up for supper," and "Okay Wally, I will let you warsh my car." [Those are not exact quotations, but they reflect the gist of the things Ward says about warshing].

Don't forget "hunk"
Wally often said hunk of _______ referring to food.
I think Gee would be the catchphrase for this show. A catch phrase does not have to be something that starts a cycle of lingo but something associated with the show like "how rude" is associated with Full House or "what you doin" with Joey from friends.

I don't remember Eddie's laugh, but I do remember him constantly saying, with sickeningly fake politeness, "Well, hello, Mrs Cleaver." Thanks for reminding me he called people "Sam" a lot.
Scram is cute. I doubt anyone's said that for decades.

The episode where Eddie tells Beaver to tell his Mexican friend “Usted turns una cara como puerco” is a fav.
That Eddie. What a creep :)
