i really do miss this show

[@mrs.6546]

Collin Smith The dvds of RTA, & AOGG, can all be purchased from Sullivan Entertainment, online.

[@newlywedbeth]

The dvds are available from Netflix. I ordered them one by one. On season four right now in quarantine.

[@officialmichaelcarrasco]

@@newlywedbeth I watch them waaay too much. Such a beautiful series. 💚

[@Lurker1979]

Proof a great show can exist and not have sex and valiance or politics.

[@benblexbenblex]

But this kind idealized life IS ideological

[@benblexbenblex]

Even sullivan said it was a fantasy. So it IS ideological.

[@fuscia13]

Loved to Hate? no, Hetty was tough love, and she did have love in her heart for sure. Especially for her family and her students

[@megan2176]

She had a bit of romance too, with Simon Tremaine and the ice skate salesman! ;)

大好きです。何度観ても飽きない！いつかプリンスエドワードへ行くのが夢です。

Of all the movies, TV shows, etc. I have on VHS and DVD, I watch the original Star Trek series, and the Anne/Avonlea series the most! Yes, there is a certain escapism involved, I suppose, but the stories wouldn't ring with audiences, unless there was a truth embedded into them! Thanks for putting quality and morality under one umbrella, Mr. Sullivan! I'll be sure to keep watching! :-) And thanks for this insight into the Avonlea series!

[@mrs.6546]

snickpickle This is how I also feel abt RTA, & AOGG! These dvds I have of each, are actually amongst my most prized possessions!

[@blane1814]

I love this so much 💞💞💞

[@mrs.6546]

My God! I've always thought Mag Ruffman ever so beautiful! I'd love to see new episodes for Avonlea produced, even though our own dear Hetty King, (Jackie Burroughs), Marilla Cuthbert, (Colleen Dewhurst), & Rachel Lynde, would be sorely missed...

[@bookadmirer.3699]

Patricia Hamilton is still alive.

[@Romantist]

I like this very much.

[@pinkosmondfan]

I don't think people "loved to hate" Hetty. I think we just loved her.

[@theunidentified4887]

[@taurinecat]

This piece seems to indicate that episode 4 of the first season was shot before episodes 1-3. Is that true? Or was it just the first script written?

[@unprocessed_life]

That Marilla ep was shot first.

[@bonnieyuse5876]

I don't want to be a Small Town Spinster!!! 😩
