The Waltons was one of the best shows ever on tv. I can watch it over and over again.

My childhood was unhappy and ugly. So I really appreciated watching the Waltons. I was able to glimpse what a family full of love was like and that's what I used for a pattern for my own family. Today, I still watch the Walton's. My family asks: "don't you ever get sick of watching that?" and I always tell them "No. I'm getting my wholesome fix. "

I still love the Waltons... when I watch them it feels like I am visiting family.

I enjoyed the Waltons from the Home coming until the last episode! It was one of my Grandmas favorite shows! I am an old man now. It gives me some comfort. God Bless

We still watch the Waltons Monday-Friday. It is a great wholesome family show. I’m grateful to Earl Hammer for writing it!

I am glad to see the guy who played the character of “Jim-Bob” come. I liked his character. As an introvert, I hope he realizes he’s just as special to us as the rest. God blessings on them all!

I was 15 when the show first aired. I am now 64 and my love and gratitude for these characters, the wonderful actors who portrayed them, and the great writer who created them has never waned. This series, in my humble opinion, is the greatest drama in television history. I thank God that I own all the DVDs and when I get tired of the crud that's on TV now, I can always turn to The Waltons for a little solace and inspiration.

How can you NOT like The Walton's? It was a true story being told over a period of time by the Man who lived it. I love this show. No nudity. No cursing. Nothing fake..and yet it won a lot of awards. You cannot call tv nowadays as entertainment. Talk shows, reality TV, and news is what is on TV now..AND ITS HORRIBLE. Anyway thank you so much for this video. 2 THUMBS UP. I love The Walton's. Makes me miss those times growing up.

The Walton's No Cell phones no computers no video Games .. No Television .. just a Radio in the Kitchen..

the waltons was my favorite show of all time

I'm in Ireland and the Waltons was a big part of my childhood growing up in the seventies. It made Tuesday evenings special. We would do our lessons (homework), eat supper (yes we called it supper in south-west Ireland too) and then fight over the best chairs to watch the Waltons. I would say the three most influential tv programmes on our childhood were Sesame Street, The Waltons and The Little House on the Prairie. Thank you America for such wonderful tv programmes full of innocence, good humour and so many valuable life lessons. Love from Ireland. xx

Hamner's monologues at the end were always amazingly done

Mr Geer was my favorite because he spoke with great passion and knowledge of life’s true events. Some very sad, some happy. His wisdom and grace was evident in every moment he spoke. He may have been acting however, the true Mr. Geer was present and felt. Thank you Will Geer. May we see you again in Grace and Glory.

I grew up watching the Walton's and even now you don't get fed up watching it. They don't make programs like this anymore.

Best program on TV. Well written, perfect cast, great time in history for the U.S. Sad to see what we are today as a nation.

This made me cry... ... I was 17 years old when I started watching this wonderful program... John Boy and I are the same age... Because of him, is the reason I thought I could become a writer... which I am... I so wanted to be apart of their family... It's bitter-sweet that it is 45 years later... "WOW" This bring back a lot of good memories... Thank you for sharing this video

it is a shame that Richard Thomas could not be a part of the Reunions. He was such a major part of all the memories.

THE WALTONS MATTER.. THE BEST WAY I COULD SAY IT IS: I LOVE THE WALTONS...

Yes, how great thou art! I thank God that His Word and love permeated into the Walton's TV home! I've watched the series over and over and never cease to get tired of it. I'm so glad that the Walton's incorporated God and His Word, so that we can be blessed and know something about our Heavenly Father.

I love the Walton's and I'll never forget!

I have to say that the Walton's is my all time, favorite TV show and it still touches my heart to this day ! I have the complete DVD collection and it's one of my most prized possessions. When I'm feeling down, I can watch an episode and it always lifts my spirit. I am thankful to Earl Hamner for sharing the stories of his life and family and also thankful for a wonderful cast. There have been so many times through the years where the parts played was so real to me that I wanted to reach out and just hold you all in my arms and comfort you ! You folks have no idea of the impact you have had on my life. God bless you and I love you all !

They are all SO gracious!!

My husband and I attend this 45th Walton Reunion and had the absolute best time. All the actors were so humbling and kind and I cannot wait to attend another year! Ray Castro did an awesome job putting this together for us to enjoy, so Thank you, Ray! I sure wish I had the chance to have met Earl Hamner Jr. What a wonderful man with so much talent. I am going to miss him. Mary McDonough (Erin Walton) said a beautiful speech regarding Earl and the Walton characters, Judy Norton surprised us all with her beautiful voice and Jon Walmsley (Jason) did an awesome job sing and playing his guitar. Actually, each of the Walton characters spoke so fondly of Earl Hamner Jr. Jimmy Fortune did an awesome job too playing and singing for us, bringing some us to tears singing How great thou Art. He even sang Elizabeth to Kami Cotler (Elizabeth). Cissy Wellman (Cissy Tucker) has enough energy to run my household. lol I wish I had her energy! I also had the privilege of speaking with Tammi Bula (Marsha Woolery), who is a nurse now, like I used to be. On Saturday, we did have to wait in a long line to get pictures and autographs with the actors but some of the staff and volunteers there would come out and talk with us, which made the time go by faster. Eric Scott's sweet wife, Cindy, also came outside to talk to us and all of them made sure we all had ice cold water to drink. We watched Michael Learned on Sunday at the Jefferson Theater in Charlottesville, VA. and that was enjoyable also. (We were able to speak with her husband too, a very nice man.) Gosh, I could just hug each of them, as they were so gracious to us.

I miss Grandpa Walton!

At 47 years old, was and still is my favorite TV series and TV family. I still watch reruns and every movie special they did. Very sad Richard Thomas doesn't feel connected or a sense of loyalty to his TV family. Most sad to me though is the absence of John Waite. The love and respect i have for John Walton is only second to my own father. His passing still saddens me and every so often while watching a particular episode my eyes will tear up. The Walton's was such a big part of my life and after all these years , my teenage daughter's have watched with me since they were little and love it every much as I do.

My hope is that all those actors and actresses knew how much they meant to us...the ones that watched them. They brought us hope in hard times, laughter and a family filled with love for many that did not have that in their own lives. I know some may not care that were in the series but I also know that some really feel the emotions and love felt during that time.

I loved this ...you can tell the cast are genuine ,good people . I hope they got to make a toast with some RECIPE : )

How do you pick the perfect people for a perfect story and somehow the love never stops? They all seem warm & wonderful just like the characters on the show who were based on real people. I didn't want to start watching the Waltons again because I had moved on but tv now is more crap than good and "The Waltons" still holds up! I watch as if I never saw the episodes before and still cry at the same parts! . The supporting cast on Walton's Mountain and other guest star roles were perfect too! Bless them all.I have to add that I am looking to buy my first house and I always tell people I want a house with a Waltons' porch!

The Waltons was a very unusual epic from several perspectives. Earl Hamner relived his youthful years vicariously through the actors that played his entire family, while the show played to several other angles as well. It captivated the youth of those playing childhood roles of Earl and his siblings during its 9 year run, while providing a positive (nurturing for some) family experience. As a showcase for the culture and lifestyle of Virginia's mountain region, those in attendance here were obviously moved by the series and by the "family" of visiting actors. Lastly, The Waltons series itself and its many later reruns have covered the world to the greatest of acclaim.

This is wonderful! It's strange that all the kids are now "old". Then, I realized so am I. LOL!! I spent my teenage years watching this show, and raised my kids on it. They love it too!

I've never seen this show until I binged watch all 9 seasons I just finished it today I love this show and the cast wonderful storyline

I deeply love this show This video just makes my heart happy!!!

We didn't realise it at the time, but it was a powerful Christian based series, with no real violence, sex or bad language. An age of innocence. Goodnite Waltons...

I would have given so much to have been there for this reunion! The "Waltons" was a staple in my home every Thursday night! Mary's speech was so touching! And I just love Jon Walmsley!

I was 11yrs old when the Waltons “The Homecoming” premiered with Patricia Neal as the Mother, and Andrew Duggan as the Father! It was so heartwarming & good natured, I instantly got hooked! When the series premiered, my entire Family became loyal fans! I’m 60 now, and still watch it on ME TV everyday! This video is such a wonderful share...thank you so much 👍🏼👏🏼

ALL THREE GIRLS GREW UP INCREDIBLE BEAUTIFUL!!!

i grew up watching the waltons and the little house on the prairie, my two favourite shows and i still watch it now at the age on almost 52. i love LOVE LOVE it. though they were hard times that they potrade , sorry john boy i am a really bad speller lol. i loved the simplicity of life unlike the world today. i would be so happy living in the middle of nowhere being self sufficient. i don't much like this selfish modern world. thank you xo love you all so much, gosh i would love to meet you all

I'm watching the series as of for the first time (I was only 10 when I first saw the series in the 70s). It makes me a tad teary knowing all the elders, save MA, have passed. Great talents all around!

Many thanks to all the actors allowing us to see them and listen to their stories of their childhood memories with the series, The Waltons Also letting us know they did move on and lives their lives as they should have. Jim Bob, you were always a shy young boy from the get go. This is and always be part of you as a mother I saw that ..

I watched the "The Waltons" in re-runs in 1982-83, which was late elementary school/early middle school for me. It was a terrible time for me, as I experienced racism and bullying at school, which contrasted with my family's expectation to follow traditions from their native India. So when I came home and watched my Walton family, I felt safe, protected, accepted and loved. In my early 40's, I once again faced personal crisis and "The Waltons" re-entered me life and remained as a steadfast during some difficult days. Thank you to Earl Hamner, all show's actors and the producers/crew for creating this masterpiece!

If only they knew... from the first movie, " The Homecoming" we have been truly blessed by these stories and so many eye watering performances. Cherished memories.... Thank you All !

I watch The Waltons every night on dvd. I love them! They are my family 🕊✨🙏❤️

I wish they had shared video of Ben's wife Cindy. I saw glimpses of her. She was wonderful ❤. What a beautiful memorial to Waltons Mountain and the actors who brought it to life🥰

Whatever else they’ve done, every actor on the Waltons were and still are a piece in the jigsaw of so many people’s lives around the globe. Thankyou.

A most fitting tribute to an American icon, The Waltons. An unparalleled portrait of the American spirit, challenged by strife and war. The lessons that life can teach us about love, commitment, and overcoming adversity. This is the genre of television that we all need more of. Olivia & Grandma, especially, nurtured wholesome, Christian values into the family, that helped the family make good choices while growing into informed, progressive adults. Thanks, Nic. I laughed, I wept, I thoroughly enjoyed the program.

I grew up watching the Waltons... Just like Earl Hamner says in those episodes as we now can look back and say "It was a different time". When I hear about The Waltons or watch the show it takes me back to a good place and time in my life as a child. Makes me also miss all my relatives that have past. I think Hollywood could never make this show today and people even watch such a pure and clean show about life as we should be living it. Wonder why Richard Thomas never attends the reunions? Love to attend one maybe next year!!

I loved Richard Thomas and the Walton's series . Wish I could have met the entire cast. I am from Trinidad in the Caribbean. Love you all.

I am 54 years old I've watched all the shows. I still watch it sometimes I grew up with the show can't believe t he Walton on is already 46 years, I liked everybody

I am from a small town called Covesville, Va. Our family would watch the Walton every week. It was a great time to get the family together. In the mid 1970's when I was just a teenager, I got to met Earl Hamner Jr. and Will Geer in Nelson County Virginia on Nelson County Day at the High School. It was a great day. If you have seen the The Homecoming: A Christmas Story when John Walton was to come home from working out of town when the family found out a bus over turned in Covesville, Well that's where I am from.

I remember watching every episode of the Walton's from 1972 , and had a big crush on Mary Allen , Erin, and Elizabeth , great show .Rob.

Love The Waltons !

mary ellen 'the actress still looks young and gorgeous

Always watched the Walton's when I was young with my mum and dad and sister it was a lovely heartwarming programme. Families today don't watch TV together it seems a shame but I suppose times have changed and young families have found different things

How wonderful of the actors and actresses to come back to be part of this! They seem wonderful in real life as well!!

A show, where the family becomes a part of your family.

It’s sweet of them to take the time to take time with their fans.

This was the 2nd time my family & I had visited Schuyler. This time for the reunion we stood in line for 5 hours so that my 16 year old daughter (LeAnna) could get autographs & pictures. Its was worth standing in that line. Erin (Elizabeth McDonough) said it so wonderfully. She lived it, but those of us (generations in my family) who watched it every week on TV at home, lived it as well. What a beautiful story teller Earl was, what a beautiful time, place & family. But also what wonderful people the actors & actresses are. They made it worth standing in that line. Thank you all for taking the time to be there, being warm & welcoming like we were all just people from the mountain. Be See you again.

I love the Waltons. That's where I learned how to say "Good Night" to my family.

My family has a kindred spirit with The Waltons. I come from a family of 13, growing up on various farms in South Eastern Ohio, not far from the Ohio River. Yes, we were poor; although as children, we didn't even know we were poor. I was born in 1957; the youngest of the boys, I followed in my older brother's footsteps by serving 6 years in the US Marine Corps. In 1976 our family moved from a farm, to a small town in West Virginia, just across the Ohio River. My family was always musical, singing gospel music in church and winning a local talent contest during the 1960s. I carry on the family tradition at the age of 60, by singing in a gospel quartet called, The Carriers; whom I have been with since 1984. I was blessed to grow up in a Christian family, with parents who stayed together through it all. So......the Walton family as portrayed on TV wasn't exactly like our family, but enough so, that the show became one of our favorites to watch together. I am thankful for Earl Hamner's dedication to bringing this family values program into our homes. It meant much to me and my own family during a time of financial difficulty after my father was injured on the job and was not able to work. Thank you to the cast of The Waltons. You are appreciated more than you know.

Loved it all, especially that special version of "How Great Thou art", by Jimmy Fortune!

I love the waltons they all look wonderful still . Love from Italy 🇮🇹 kiss to u all

How marvellous! Dedicated Australian fan here.

I was 10 with mum, dad, brother & my sister, as a family back in 1973 on our Farm, here in Nottingham, England, when we gathered together to sit and watch the Waltons, we all loved the show and never missed it, ( remember NO VCRs or Sky boxes back then) . a wonderful show with wonderful people in it, good clean Family viewing. and good memories too... also very interesting that my 2 boys and their cousins all in their 20s now, enjoyed watching the Waltons and other brilliant classic shows thanks to SKy back in 2005, well done cast & crew .

WOW 45 years I am getting old =) Thank you so much for the upload . It was a real blast from the past

Good to see them again. Judy Norton is beautiful.

I discovered the Waltons 2 years ago and bought the whole series, we are almost finished. Best series ever, each episode you learn something! Our grandkids love the show too!

The best family series of all time in my opinion. I still watch the reruns. Good , clean , wholesome program, unlike what is on today.

Thank goodness we have 9 years of the Waltons to still watch. They were such a big part of our lives. Little House on The Prarie is also a favorite still today at our house. They don't make shows as great as these 2 anymore.

I was so happy to be a part of this on Saturday the 25th of March this year, it was so much fun. We were one of the first 250 to be able to come through the doors and meet these truly amazing people who are so down to earth and sweet, they made small talk with all of us, it was fun to go through and meet these people who played such awesome characters on a show that is an icon for tv. I watched it in the last couple of years three times a day so. I fly from California to Chicago to my daughter's house, then we drove to Virginia, thank goodness her in-laws live an hour away. But still, we were tired from a long journey. My daughter's birthday present to me was for me to meet the Walton Family, truly amazing people. And I thank my daughter for such an exciting adventure!

i just read today tht the house has been sold for $345,000 to two fans of earl hamner . theyre going to turn it into a museum

My favorite show to this day. We took the long drive to Schuler from Alexandria years ago & saw the museum. Loved it. Had the window sticker on my car until I no longer had the car. Miss both! Thank you, Earl Hamner & all the actors. The great Ellen Corby, Will Geer & Ralph Waite shouldn't be forgotten either.⛪🇺🇸💟🌳🌲

Great to see them still loving like family they are truly special people to each other and the world and to see how much they enjoy the time they have together is priceless. I grew up watching them and at 56 really enjoy seeing how they have grown into a fabulous group of adults

So beautiful, thank you Earl Hamner!

I LOVED this show. My mother grew up on a farm, in Spring Valley, MN. This show made feel not so "home sick" for my Grandparents farm. THANK YOU!!!

Approaching 50-year anniversary. I am in process of binge-watching the series. I am presently up to the 5th season with episode where Grandma has left due to stroke of actress... I was born in 1971 and remember watching the show as a small kid. I grew-up on a farm (myself) and grew a dislike for farm-life, mostly due to the teasing that I had received from schoolmates (most of which were city kids). After all that our Country has been through the past few years, I'm looking for an uplifting show to reconnect with goodness. THIS show is perfect for me at this time and I am encouraging many others to watch it too--- many for the first time. John-Boy reminds me of my son in so many ways. I get a tear in my eye when I watch many of the episodes. I actually find myself jealous in how simple the times really were back then in the depression era-- The times developed a true toughness and appreciation for the little things. Unfortunately, I am irritated by our present selfish society with all the technologies and disconnect from real communication and foundations that family is meant to provide.. I pray to God that we can overcome a spoiled generation.

Im so thankful I grew with shows like the Walton's and little house on the prairie, I remember our family sitting and watching these shows together,, times were simpler . I feel sorry for the kids now a days, but they can still watch the re runs.

Thank u for Touching my Family. love and Blessings to all of you.

I watched and I grown up. This Waltons series made my life change.

I'm thankful for The Walton's show then & now, and for Jimmy Fortune being able to sing How Great Thou Art as he sings it, and Elizabeth! So sweet!

totally awesome and the cast are so humble and so happy to be a part of this celebration. You all look great...

The Walton's series began the year I was born and I still watch it daily! It's my favorite show ever aired. It breaks my heart to watch most of the shows that air today.

Grew up watching the Waltons and loved it!! I wonder where Richard Thomas is.

this is just magic. .they're all so special in their own way. ..but miss michael learned is simply heaven sent. ...thanks for sharing.

I really loved the Walton's when growing up in the 70. There is no show that that shows so much family values as the Walton's and there has not been one sense. Thank u to the Walton's u showed me what family values meen to me... Thank you all.

Thx for posting. Like so many others, grew up watching the Waltons. So many memories.

I have the whole collection of the Waltons....love Earl HamnerJR...love all the actors past and present from the show!!! Always wanted to live with them!

I miss the Dad, gramma and grandpa 😢 to bad John boy wasn’t there. They all look great. Thanks for sharing the 45 th reunion with all of us:)

I still love this show.

What a lovely way to remember some great days for all of us from back then that appreciated GOOD work out of Hollywood. Can’t say too many good things about Hollywood now.

Kami was my crush always thought she was beautiful, and she began a lifelong love of gingers! Love to one and all God bless

Loved this series so so much. Wish I was at the reunion. Thank you to all the actors and actresses that brought this wonderful show to my life.

That was the best show ever! I wish the youth of today had TV like that! They really miss out on good television. As a child I watched all the shows with my family... great times and memories.

very precious moment. bless this great family. 🌹🌹

This brought tears to my eyes. Such wonderful memories growing up with this show.

I watch the Waltons every Christmas to bring back my childhood memories. Classic! This looked like a great time!

I watch the waltons all the time, and i keep forgeting they're actors, they seem likevthe perfect family, even with their flaws.

I loved the show from beginning to end ! I remember so much of it too. It had that much of an impact on me . I think above all the numerous touching scenes my absolute favorite was the first episode (?) When John Boy is writing at his desk late at night, by the open window, writing in his journal about the trains and the lonesome train whistles he hear when they are crossing the Rockfish Trestle. I think the breeze is blowing through the open window. It evokes such a lovely thought and moment in time. Sort of dreamy.

I always knew what everyone was doing at 7pm Central time Thursday nights when I was a child..like my family..watching the Waltons!

Such a big part of my childhood, for some reason this made me cry?

What great memories i have of sitting with my mom and dad and watching The Waltons. I will forever treasure them. If i could only go back in time.
