Michael is such a delight. I get a Richard Thomas vibe from him, which is probably one of the greatest compliments one can receive. So intelligent, humorous, and likeable. He truly would have made a perfect Walton family member.

Dear Judy, I am a regular watcher of Behind the Scenes of the Waltons. I have been meaning to write in about 2 things. Back before Christmas you did several episodes with Jon Walmsley, and he talked about the CD he made with Earl Hamner about hymns. You discussed it again a few weeks ago when you had the group discussion about Earl Hamner. I ordered the CD for my brother-in-law who is a Baptist music minister and a big fan of the Waltons. A few weeks ago, my husband, my son and I went to visit my sister. While we were playing games after dinner, my brother-in-law put in the CD, and we listened while we played and sang along with the hymns in 4-part harmony. We all, even my son who wasn't familiar with Earl Hamner, enjoyed it so much. I only wished my mom and dad were still with us to hear Earl's voice again and the stories he told. My dad would have loved the story he told about the Carter Family. My dad dearly loved the Carters and Mother Maybelle. I had tears in my eyes as we all sang together the old hymns. Please tell Jon how much joy the CD brought to us. The second thing I wanted to mention was from your discussion of the episode, The Hiding Place. You said that Walker Edmiston did the radio voices. I don't know if you had the privilege to know Mr. Edmiston, but the man was a genius with voices. He was a fine Christian man who did voices on Focus on the Family's Adventures in Odyssey radio show. My children grew up hearing his voices. I can always spot his voice. They say that he was so good that he could be playing multiple parts within the same scene and just go back and forth between the characters with no break. He played 2 very different characters, one a good guy and one a bad guy. At times the two characters would argue, and he switched between the two characters without pause. Well, thanks for your time. I hope you found it remotely interesting even if quite long. BTW, My mama's birthday was Jan. 29th too.

Mr. O'Keefe truly is an amazing actor. I grew up watching reruns of The Walton's and each episode of Roseanne as it aired. Both are my actual favorite shows because it felt like a real family in each. Roseanne was like watching my own family as I grew up living in Wisconsin. For me it was nice to see non well to do families handling the challenges that life brings each day...just felt more of a connection to both shows and my family. Thank you both of you for being a part of creating that experience for me still to this day. Happy Birthday Judy! 🎉

Thats interesting to know. ❤ Micheals Charcter as Chad was so proffessional i never knew he was new to Acting ? it was as though he was a proffessional Actor. Wow how Adorable he was then with all his locks of curly brown hair and those beautiful eyes! i justnloved how he pulled Mary AkA Errin into the water after she pushed him in and how he told her he was going to build a long cabin in the woods on property he bought in the Episode. it was sad at the end when he left and yold Errin.She was so in love with him then . ❤

Michael was nominated for a supporting actor Oscar in 1979 for The Great Santini. He starred opposite Robert Duvall and Blythe Danner. Michael, I read the book until the pages fell out and always remember the scene when Mr.Duvall was hitting the basketball to the back of your head as you were walking away from him. Also, one of my favorite episodes of Maude had you as the younger boyfriend of Adrienne Barbeau on election night arguing political views and age differences between men and women. Your characters father was played by William Schallaret, who played Stanley Perkins in the last two seasons of the Waltons. I enjoyed your work on Roseanne very much as well as your comedy Life's Work. Judy I cannot thank you enough for all the work that you do on your videos. This was such a wonderful opportunity to see another young actor who made such an indelible impression on the audience.

Michael starred in one of the first plays I ever saw on Broadway when I moved to NYC ("Mass Appeal") and I've been a fan ever since. These remembrances you shared in this episode were so touching and genuine - it not only took me back to "The Waltons," but to my early days in New York. Can't thank you enough!

A delightful interview. Thank you, Michael. Thank you, Judy! Amazingly, Ellen was 36 (b. in 1911) when A Wonderful Life (1947) was released; Ellen also did an amazing job with Glenn Ford and Hope Lange's "A Pocketful of Miracles" (1961). What a theatrical history "The Waltons" represents in reel time, and real life..

Off-topic and random, but I was watching a 1971 film called The Pursuit of Happiness with Michael Sarrazin and Barbara Hershey. Ralph Waite played a supporting character. Also, while watching Madame Bovary from 1949 - Ellen Corby in one of a slew of supporting roles she played during the golden age of Hollywood. Edit. I guess not so off topic, as Ellen just became the topic of conversation with Michael O'Keefe. 👍🏻

This was an uncanny, surreal episode of your channel for me. First of all I'm currently going through the 4th season, and before I watched this or even knew what the topic was the episode of the Waltons that was incue that I watched last night was "the competition"! Then when I began to watch this I was floored. Not to mention that Michael told the story about also recently watching it. There was also another coincidence for me concerning the framed image on his wall. Just had to comment.

Hi Judy and Michael. This was a wonderful interview. The audience was really fortunate to experience this great talent at the beginning of his career. An Oscar nominated actor who is as humble, grounded and charming "as can be." I'm happy to know that there is more to come. Thank you Judy and Michael O'Keefe. 😊

Happy Birthday, Judy! I hope Michael knows what a hottie he was to all the teens back in the mid 70s. He was such a delightful character and totally believable! He was just like my brother's friends and I was so jealous of Erin on the show! It was so delightful when he made a return appearance and I was so stunned and disappointed in a future show when Ralph said he was happy Erin didn't marry him, calling him a knucklehead or something of the sort. I thought to myself, why would he say that about him, then it dawned on me that this was a guy who tried to elope with his daughter! LOL! Then to see him again on Rosanne was a true gift from heaven. He's been a 10 out of 10 in everything he's worked on and it's truly a pleasure to see him on your channel. Yes, I still watch The Waltons every single day on MeTV. It is truly an American treasure.
