A Walk Down Memory Lane with the cast of ‘The Waltons'

[@indy_go_blue6048]

I was a 23 year old working in a nursing home in Macon, Ga. when this show was running. The old folk would gather in the lounge to watch each week, but the best part was when they'd sit around afterwards until bedtime sharing memories. It stretched their minds wonderfully and it gave me some great insights into a life and time just before my own, but a world removed. That was 1973-4.

[@tamibrueggemann1726]

I found myself crying during the clip of Grandpa and Grandma Walton. Realizing that they are both gone now, along with Ralph Waite. Such talented people who brought joy to so many through their characters. This show was a big part of my childhood. Thank you to everyone involved in making it happen.

[@angel196989]

me too. Every time I see that episode, I always end up crying. Same as when Will died in real life and they had the ceremony on the mountain and when grandma said "Old man you live in all of us" I bawl like a baby every time because it is so true. He did live on in all of them

It was such a more simpler time. Family was close. Morales meant something. There is just so much more to this show. There is nothing on TV today as far as I am concern that is as entertaining as this one. All the actors truly were great in their roles and made this show so great. It this busy world we have today it really still a joy to watch this today.

[@inkyguy]

Teresa Cole, it was a very special show. It was threatened with the axe early on because the ratings were poorer than what CBS wanted. To his credit, William Paley, the president of CBS at the time, believed in the show and gave it the chance it needed to build an audience. The show did sometimes use overly melodramatic plots to hook and keep its audience, and the show suffered terribly, in my opinion, after Richard Thomas left the cast followed by Michael Learned. I wish they had stuck in there a little longer, but perhaps they had a better sense than the producers and writers that the show had run its course. The show was at its best when it was at its simplest in the early years. The episode where John Boy struggles to please his father but can't bring himself to shoot a deer is a very good example of such an episode. I suspect it was a ratings bomb, though.) It was not a simpler time then. It seems like it was because this is TV, after all, and because we humans are nostalgic and sentimental creatures. It was an incredibly hard and difficult time. The Great Depression and the war were terrible trials. (I could list a plethora of social problems and conflicts of that era as well as problems we don't even have to consider or worry about any longer, e.g., polio.) I think the point of the show is that family can be a source of strength, as well as conflict, that can help us manage the complex times we face now, just as they faced theirs.

I long for the day when you left the house and could go about your day without checking your phone every 5 minutes. I was at the dentist and I had to fill a form out ( via email) back to them for my next appt., Lol, rather than just make it then and there with the receptionist Finally I went to my daughters school at noon break to pick her up, I walked into the cafeteria to see if I could see her and EVERY student in there were on their phones !! No one was taking to one another physically and they all had mad looks on their faces..It was such a sad sight really. I see little toddlers in strollers being pushed by their parent and the toddler on a tablet. It's just going to.get worse too.

Totally agree. Just now started watching this series (age 80!) and can't believe the quality of the writing and acting and directing that went into just one of these episodes. So many and most of them A+++! Last night I watched The Obsession that featured Corabeth who was my favorite of them all. It was better than many movies I have ever seen. Her acting, the script, the integrity of the scenes, the absolute realism of the acting. Just hard to believe what they once did with television. Corabeth acted her heart out!!! as did so many of the actors, but she took the lead and ran with it. It is the treat of my early evenings to just watch yet another of these great storylines. And, can't say enough about Earle Hamner, Jr. for creating this show and his beyond-excellent writing!!!

Wow that scene with grandma and grandpa Walton make me cry every single time

[@alessandromachi1010]

This video is such a treasure.

[@fredlong5912]

watched it for years, kinda lost when Grandpa and John boy left

[@melbabowen4389]

One of the best series ever been written and filmed!!!!

[@saiyongdawn7756]

I loved the Waltons. Grandma and Grandpa, Jim Bob, my FAV was John Boy, Mary Ellen, Elizabeth, etc. Loved them all.

[@markd1672]

That's when TV was worth watching. The writers of today aren't really writers they suck. They wouldn't know how to make a great family show like the Waltons.

[@bernadettesullivan29]

Well Said.

This is so true! The Waltons were a great family show, not like this stuff that is on now.

Loved "The Waltons" show. Heard where life was not so good to some of the actors after the show ended...SAD ! Loved shows like this that were on television. Can't find such good shows today on television.

[@caroldavis8656]

You sure can't best show ever, it showed how families should be and how we should help one another.

LOVED " THE WALTON'S " I GREW UP WATCHING IT MISS GRANDPA, GRAND MA AND JOHN RIP!!!

[@marionhudson4477]

I still watch that show.

[@snapstring3134]

This is awesome. I’m amazed at how time hasn’t changed their appearance too much.

[@nichellepeters5195]

The show was AMAZING But "This Is Us" is pretty great too. This show is totally a major part of my childhood watching this show with my parents and sister. Me and my sis were in love with John-Boy of course! He was so cute!!! Still handsome, well-seasoned. Was so happy to find this by accident today.

[@flojoe11095]

I have all 9 seasons of The Waltons.I have watched them 100's of times I Hope to meet you someday!

[@alohaleiyoshida2508]

[@emilymalden3310]

I agree, they have all aged well. That's sweet they are all still close.

[@sharonjackson268]

I truly liked the show. I loved Grandma and Grandpa ! Grandpa was the life of the party.

[@daydreammountaingirl1934]

someone asked me not too long ago "if you could be anyone you want to be who would you be?" i didn't even have to think about it. of course it would be olivia walton. she had it all, a husband that adored her, 5 beautiful children, grandparents that were truly a part of the family, good friends, and it was all on that beautiful, magical mountain.

[@susie4179]

Seven children, not five.

[@daydreammountaingirl1934]

i know there were 7 children, but by the time i realized i had hit 5 instead of 7 it was already posted. i am answering this because so many people have corrected this. i find it very disappointing that people find this to comment on rather than the point i was making about what is important in life

[@Dante-vf4sd]

+daydreammountaingirl I agree it was just about the perfect portrayal of what a successful family should be, regardless of the difficulties they went through. Good morals and values and true love. Nothing like this anymore.

[@bernadettehynes-cafferkey3917]

There were 7 Walton children not 5

[@larrybrown6068]

Yes, Jim Bob had a twin brother who died at birth. Joseph Zebulon.

[@shelleymagnussen1959]

"Will Gear was played by Grandpa Walton." Glad I didn't say it. I think what I liked about the show is that there was a lot of down=home wisdom and that it portrays the importance of leaning on one-another and sacrificing a little for someone else. That is how people survived the Great Depression. There was a clear sense of right and wrong that was needed at the time. I think people really want to see that sense of right and wrong and the reminder of what is really important in life.

[@janetshupp8227]

So true. We don't see people sacrificing any thing for any body else anymore. That is sad!!

[@OlSgtLove]

Me ,Momma, and my sister , started with the Home Coming and when The Waltons came on every week we would watch them . My Momma loved the show and would still watch until she passed 2 years ago . It brings back so many good memories. My Mom and Dad had divorced and we wished for the close family ties as The Waltons have . The show taught how you should treat each other and Friends, morals ....so better times back in those days ...I Love you Momma and Daddy ....

I'm just discovering the Walton's now, because I was a baby when they were on primetime TV. I originally just wanted to check out the show, never expecting to actually enjoy it, but what a great show! I'm binge-watching the entire series. It's so cool that they are such good friends in real life all these years later! I love it! 🥰
