50 years later and I am realizing how truly great this show was. We need it right now.

I am an African American mom and my husband and I grew up with the Waltons. We even took on some of the attributes of the family, like saying good night to everyone, praying together and at mealtimes. I still watch it at almost 60 years old. Our children 25 - 32! It was a show of substance and value!!! Love it!!❤👍🏾

I can't believe Richard Thomas is 70 years old!!! I just went to Wikipedia and found that out. That show was one of the best family shows ever!!! Little House on the Prairie was another great one. We sure could use another show like this, especially in this day and age. What a blessing that show was.

I am a 53 year old Virginian, the Hamler house is a few counties north. I can assure you that this show is very much like many people grew up. The moonshiners, store keepers, going to town, working hard, and fearing God. It was a well depicicted show.

To see a show that constantly reminds you of Truth, Honor, Integrity and Love takes me back to my own roots of my family back then. Sometimes I wish people today would watch the Waltons. It is so much they could learn and value.

RIP Earl Hammer 1923-2016 The REAL Johnboy Walton! He did a beautiful job with the Narration. That made the show more authentic!

This is one of the best shows ever they dont make shows like this anymore.

I was born in 1970 and grew up watching the Walton's. Me and my husband still watch it today. We love it and never get tired of it. I can imagine how sad it must have been when it all ended. Especially since the show never even called them to let them know it had been canceled.

My father grew up in the depression. To him this was his childhood. We never missed an episode. Dad would watch, remember and cry.

Best TV show thats ever been made . A clean family show that can be watched over and over

Sept 30,2023 I must admit I still watch the Walton’s daily. I’m 63 and have watched from the start. I lived in Virginia and passed by this mountain often. It’s is beautiful country. I miss it greatly. This show will never die and so thankful to them all for this beautiful gift. Many blessings .

Filled with great lessons about life, about marriage, and on how to raise children. Together. This tv show should be mandatory for ALL NEW PARENTS.

Wish there could be another series of programmes like this. We need more ‘feel good’ programmes again!!!

The country desperately needs a show like this again!

We need shows like this today. Loved watching this when I was a kid.

I'm now 64. I watch the Walton's every chance I get. I've got so many of the series recorded and I don't erase them. My heart goes out to everyone of the "Walton" children. To see them on one of the most famous television shows ever, and then to hear how all there lives have turned out after the great and wonderful show ended. My love and prayers goes out to Erin and Ben. The trials of Ben losing his wife just brought tears to my eyes and pain to my heart. Erin for the sickness that she endured from something that should never have been invented or not educating young women of the possible risks. How sad. All and all, I've never met any of those people, but I pray that God will continue to enrich their lives. They brought so much to into our own lives. Each and everyone of them has been an inspiration in my own life. God bless to all of you.

I was a little girl when this show came out. Im now in my fifties. What a wonderful time.

I grew up watching The Waltons and now I'm watching again! I'm fascinated that Richard Thomas and I share the same birthday!!! Many episodes give me goosebumps and tears...just a wholesome show❤

Thank you to all of the cast! The love all of you showed in the show helped me feel the love I didn’t have!❤️❤️❤️

An ageless show for all ages, the gift that keeps on giving!

We need more great shows like that now. It will show kids these days manners,values and good morals. Amen!!!🙏🙏🦋🌈👍🤗

I just purchased the entire DVD set of the Waltons and I also own the entire DVD set of Little House On The Prairie, Hands down the two most heartwarming shows to ever air on TV.

One of the best tv shows ever!! It was clean, uplifting and a show the whole family can watch. I watch the re-runs now!! My stepmother said her life was alot like the Waltons, she had 15 siblings though. The children picked cotton before school and after school. They bathed on the weekends in the creek and washed out of a large bucket of water during the week. She never regretted her life growing up. Her and her family has passed away but I always think of them fondly.

I didn’t get through the first two minutes without getting goosebumps and tearing up seeing the cast come together again

Deep inside everyone there is something that yearns to see goodness and The Waltons provided that.

They remind me of my mom's family. There were 15 children in her family.They grew up on a farm during the depression. They had hard times but their faith in God and love got them through.

I grew up watching the Waltons with my parents. I'm 60ty now and still remember night John boy night Mary Ellen and I remember that the Waltons always said their prayers at supper.it was the best show about American people growing up in the depression .there isn't a show in today's world that even come close to the Waltons show.

I sure love all of you!! My tears are just rolling... I feel line I grew up with all of you!!! Thank you so much for being on on here to share your lives with me. God Bless

Just before this show made its debut, a writer for the Detroit Free Press said it was too wholesome for our times and would likely be dropped. But he begged his readers to please give The Waltons a chance because he felt the show was so deserving. He was right!

There will never be another show like it to compare!❤

So, I am 49 years old and just started watching the Walton's last year. I was drawn into this family because I could relate so much to the family. I am the last of 9 and we were poor, but didn't really know it. My parents provided what we needed, we grew up in a city so we didn't grow our own foods or have a family business to get us by, my father was a cook and my mom was disabled by the time I came along, 7 years between me and the 8th child. My mom was a seamstress and she would sew all of our clothes and food was cooked for us. I watch the reruns on this show everyday, and every time I watch an episode I pick up something new.

There is no other series like The Waltons.I tape,them,watch them over and over.I just love the cast.Whoever selected the cast members surely got it right

It’s 2019, I’m 69 and still watch it every day. My favorite all-time show Amen

‘Grandpa, tell me ‘bout the good ole days....’. Wynona Judd Respect, family values, clean good entertainment...

To this day The Walton's is my very favorite show of all time. I loved Erin so much that my 31 year old daughter is named after her. I never tire of watching The Walton's. I would like to say thanks to each one of you for bringing so much happiness into my life each week. May God bless each one of you. You all were and are such a blessing to me. Thank you all.

I must have a broken heart because everytime I watch an episode, there’s always one scene that makes me cry.

My grandmother hated the show, reminded her of her life, my granddad thought it was BS, he was an adult during the 30s. I loved it. Made me want to be apart of a family that cared about each other and had each other's back. My family was too busy trying to cut each other's throats.

I'm 45 years old and I've been watching this show since I was little. I ordered the collection and watch it each and every day. I have a condition called Conversion Disorder and this show calms me when an attack occur. It helps me to escape the world that we're in now. I love this show.

The Waltons and Little House were my personal inspirations for how *family* should be. I was determined to find the right husband and to raise our children (and grandchildren) with the same values and love. We did. We raised 4 children and have 5 beautiful loving grandchildren. We are a close, supportive, grateful, simple, loving and noisy family that get together at least once a week and all live very close to each other. These 2 shows literally gave my generation a solid example of how life SHOULD be.

I'm 57 years old, I watched this programme at age 7years old. So this programme is 50years old! Not 30years old that the commentator had said. I never missed a show, I felt part of their family, I absolutely loved it. Wish I could go back to them times, where life was full of love and fun! When summer's were summer's and they just went on and on, I didn't want to grow up. I don't like these times we living in now. To much heartache and pain in these days, anyway I could go on and on, but I won't, I'm thinking yall know what I mean xo.

Life was simple back when i was a kid. Watching the the Waltons and Little House on the Prairie was a staple in the evening.

I'm 57 and I watched the show when it first ran in the 70's, then repeats in the 80's, and now I'm watching it again in 2019. It never "gets old" because it stands for everything that's good in this world.

I grew up watching the Walton’s and I absolutely loved this show!! Today at 60 years old, I still watch everyday!!!

The Waltons have been such a great show pure and real

I passed along the Waltons to my children who grew up in the 2000’s. We could watch every episode as a family, safely, and we’re better off for it! They loved it as much as us!

i watch this show every night for the past 2 years. it brings me peace and comfort from this complex world we live in today.

Ellen Colby and Will Geer played the best grandparents I loved it when he give grandma trouble . They were so beautiful together and made a great pair of grandparents. Reminds me of mine grandparents

I used to watch The waltons religiously.. They were my escape from an abusive husband. And at the time my only source of serenity. I love The waltons to this day. xo

What is great is that you can still find this show on TV or buy the DVDs and watch them whenever you like. Videos like the one above help to remind us that these actors are all human beings, just like the rest of us and they too, realize how special that show truly was and is.

Watching this in Lockdown. Loved this programme so much. John Boy was gorgeous and Richard Thomas is still a handsome man. They all seemed to have grown into well rounded people. Happy memories. Wish there were programmes like this around today. Keep safe everyone.

When our son was born in 1973, he was John, Jr. Of course he was our "John-Boy" At times we slip up and still call him that....This epic series probably has been one of the absolute best. So enjoyed this review.

The Waltons was one of my favourite shows, they sure need more shows like this today. I enjoyed the reunion so much.

I'm still watching this show. Its just me and my husband on a daily basis and this show brings comfort. My dream of what I want in life.

Waltons and Little House, best shows ever made. I grew up watching both and still do.

We had supper every night and watch the Waltons! Our 4 children grew up with y’all! We all laughed and cried with y’all! Thanks for your sacrifices as children!

I watched the Waltons every week on Thursday night. It calmed me and was a reprieve from a stressful life. Once my husband realized how important the show was for me he did everything he could to interfere with my enjoyment. Since then I have added to my guilty pleasures and he’s not one of them.

My family was a lot like the Waltons. We didn't have a grandma and grandpa but there were actually more of us than there were of the Waltons because there were 9 of us and we also were extremely poor. My parents had lived through the Great Depression and when I was born they still had that depression mentality and that's how I was raised. When I say "depression mentality" I mean we were taught we must never waste anything. We didn't have to put a certain amount of food on our plate but once it was on our plate we were expected to eat it because it was unthinkable that we would let it be wasted. We ate fairly well because we grew a huge garden and mom canned LOTS of vegetables to see us through the winter but we very seldom had meat of any kind. There was no air conditioner or even an electric fan to see us through the hot summers and the only heat in our house came from a pot bellied stove where we burned wood because coal cost money and we could go out back and cut all the wood we needed for free. We had no phone. We had no television. We had no running water and no indoor plumbing. Sometimes mom made our skirts and blouses and dresses and shirts out of patterned sacks that we got when we bought a 25 pound bag of flour or sugar. Things that Mom could not make by hand, like blue jeans and shoes came from a junk shop downtown. Such places would not be called "Thrift Stores" for another 30 or 40 years and an old lady named Taylor ran the junk shop and mom called it "Taylor's Fashion Shop" and she would say that we needed to go to "Taylor's Fashion Shop" to see if we could find a pair of shoes for my brother Jim. By the way, there was none of the modern thinking that "if we buy something for one child we have to buy something for every child" because there simply was not enough money for that. If Mom and Dad could scrape together enough money to buy Jim a pair of shoes at the used clothing store, it did not even enter the mind of any of the rest of us that we would get shoes too. And, BTW, we were okay with that. I knew that when I was the one who desperately needed another pair of shoes it would be my turn to get shoes and Jim would know that he had already had his turn and this was NOT his turn. I was talking to my oldest sister a while back and I asked her why she thought we were okay with just the child with the greatest need being the only one to get whatever. I asked her, 'Did Mom and Dad just ingrain in us that just because one child was getting something did not mean that all the rest of us would get something too?" My sister's response was, "We were just not jealous of each other." Maybe that's it. If Jim needed the shoes I was very happy for him to get the shoes and it never occurred to me to be upset because I was not getting shoes too! By the way, we actually played...outside...with each other to entertain ourselves because we didn't have a TV to watch. We played games like Tag, Kick the Can, Hide N Seek, or Red Rover, Red Rover and I do not recall ever whining to Mom or Dad, "I'm bored". If any of us had said such a thing to them they would have handed us a hoe and said, "Go hoe the corn if you're bored." We also played board games like checkers (Dad made the checker board on a big piece of cardboard and we used white and dark colored buttons for checkers) or dominos and we read....a lot... and we all sang together while one of my older brothers played the guitar. Our lives were not about STUFF. Our lives were about each other. When I see the Waltons, I see US and it makes me homesick.

The Waltons n Little House on the Prairie were my life savers. You see, despite from being from a colourful n broken background, these shows provided me with a model that family life need not be like the one I was in. These shows taught me honesty n integrity.

Such a family oriented show loved it,wish it was still on!!, I'm 57

I am from Singapore, a very urban country and for those of us who grew up with the Waltons, we loved it.

I really enjoyed this program, seeing the cast members and how much they meant to each other, and their lives afterwards. I wish I too could have grown up with a loving family like theirs.

I'm 55 and grew up with the Waltons. I loved the show. Mr. Walton looked extremely similar to my dad. We need more clean shows.

My daughter bought me the whole Walton séries for Christmas on Cds. Best gift I ever received. Enjoyed every minute of it. What a cast! What a show! Truly inspiring! Thank you from the bottom of my hearth!

If only they could bring all the shows back in this mixed up world. I would be Happy

Lovely to hear the good relationship The Waltons had off screen, Good nite, to our childhood friends

The Walton's came on the air when I was 20 and my 11 year old granddaughter is enjoying it now. In my family we are at 3 generations enjoying the show.

This is bringing back great memories of a simpler time and no virus!

Its 2021 I'm 45 years old and I still watch the Waltons. My kids are 17 and 22 and they grew up watching it just like I did. We still watch Little House on the Prairie too. Grandpa and Mary Ellen are my favorites. The old tv shows are better than the new stuff they are putting on tv now a day's.

My gran and I used to watch the show every week. God bless the Waltons for bringing an old lady and you 10 year old boy closer together. :)

its 43 yrs later and I still love the Waltons.

I remember this show while growing up, in the 70s, but now as an adult I watch it everyday on ME TV.

There will never be another WALTON'S. IT WAS GREAT. IT WILL NEVER GROW OLD! YOU ALL ARE GREAT ACTORS AND ACTRESSES.

Richard Thomas is such a good actor! I would have never guessed in a million years that he was a native New Yorker!

43 years on,its still being shown,better than the crap they spew out now

I love to watch this show. I am an only child and I have dreamed about growing up in a family like the Waltons. It would have been wonderful 😊

I remember watching The Waltons when I was a child. Never missed a episode. I am so glad that Hallmark channel and MeTV have this show. I remember my mother telling me about her childhood in the Great Depression.

I was born and grew up in Mexico City in a very dysfunctional family where we suffered so much abuse that my escape was The Little House on the Prairie, and later The Waltons, how much I starved for a family like them, I still watch the reruns when I can and still love them, thank you!!

I miss that show. The Waltons was one of the best shows ever.

I watched the show with my little sister and now all these years later its back on and better than ever!

The Waltons has a timeless quality because its values like family, kindness and love never cease in their importance.

I loved the Waltons, it made my childhood much happier. I watched it in New Zealand, it got down there too. Love this reunion and how they all got on so well. So lovely to see.

This show represents my life back when it was safe and simple. No technology, kids playing outside in trees or the creek,going to bed with the front door unlocked, kind neighbors, family dinners every night and everything else that was good.

I’m from Singapore and I love the Waltons. My whole family does. Thanks for series. 🥰

I love this family and this show, I admire the love, unity, and sharing 💜 ❤ 💖 and more so,caring for one another. Every step they made, their thoughts are together.

Even as an older adult, i still love this show!!!!

I grew up in Germany, but we had the Waltons on screen to. Actually it was the best part of my childhood.

I always loved Mary ellen,and always wanted a grandpa like will Greer!!!!!

When I was young I never miss any episodes of the Walton Family it's a beautiful family show, its a very nice show that is a lesson into some.... staying together as a family I so loved it.❤️ I wish more shows like that on TV than these shows are on TV nowadays. GOD bless to all the survivors of the Walton Family 🌹

This was the family unit and childhood I so yearned for growing up , wonderful . God Bless the Waltons ...

Still watch the re runs... truly inspiring 😊

Beautiful series.Sensitively written.All the characters were perfect.Great natural acting everyone.I really loved it.The WALTONS series and the film TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD really touched me.💚

I missed when Ellen Corby had her stroke but definitely missed seeing her Then when she was back Grandpa was gone it was so touching do to the realness

What a great and positive show that was. We need more shows like that on TV now.

I grew up watching the Waltons. My whole family watched the tv series. We loved watching this show. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Watched with my family each week. Loved the show and wanted to go visit them. Silly girl. I still watch almost daily. Never gets old.

As a 🇬🇧 born person, the Waltons were a very special part of our family time when i was a child. It has always remained close to our hearts.

To this day I still use the phrase "Good night John Boy, Good night Mary Alen" at the end of my shift at work. The Waltons are memories of my childbhood!

The Walton's and Little House, gave me a reality check when taking the things in life for granted.

My daughter is 35 years old and will call me and ask what I'm doing. I reply watching The Walton's. She says Mommm. Lol. I do and will always watch and love them. Im from a large family as well, and was raised in the very same way but my Father was in and out, but Mother keep us on the same upbringing. I'm turning 61 on Oct 2nd and with the way times are in these days, you need something that will take you back to some great memories. I will always cherish this show. Thank you.

I love the Waltons . I still watch it on Vision TV. Thank God for the show. Thank you.
