Meine Güte...
Was für Erinnerungen...
Leute....Schauts auch ein Bisserl auf die "wesentlichen" Dinge...
Familie, Freunde, Zusammenhalt..
Und lasst Euch nicht von irgendwelchen Hah Ces (froh)locken
DIE kochen auch nur mit warmen Wasser...
und meist mit trüben......

Exactly. It was filmed in California but was set in Virginia. Anyone here ever read the book? Spencer's Mountain by Earl Hamner, Jr. He was the voice of John-Boy. It was really a telling story about how a family withstood the Depression. My parents and grandparents lived through that so I find the series very interesting.

It was filmed in California (yes, there are mountains in California) but set in Virginia.

same here...i did watch enough of the Waltons when it was on prime time back in the 70s to remember the show, but not enough to say i watched every single episode (i was in my mid-teens then)...i regret it, because now i do see that it's one of the BEST televisions shows ever produced in this country..
-
yes, your right..i just read your post right after i commented about not remembering the name of that episode/movie. Yes, it was apparently a Thanksgiving Walton special (or episode) which took place in the early 60s with JFK's murder.

the later Waltons (with Grandma making some cameo appearances because of her real-life stroke) took place in the early 60s. In fact, there is one episode that is exactly about that---when JFK was shot (i just saw it on the Hallmark Channel last saturday). I can't remember, though, if by then the show was called Return to Walton Mountain or still called The Waltons..

Kudos to your wise dad!

@jillianwiller One of the movies was about the JFK assasination, it was a Thanksgiving movie that they did.

I agree. Jerry Goldsmith wrote some beautiful musical scores but I wouldn't read anything into it.
My dad got me into this show, now we watch it just about everynight from the dvds.

it is a good show, great for families and young children to watch to get out good morals.

This musical compisition and this tv series in my humble opinion embodies the American spirit from the founding fathers to the civil war.. Today that spirit is dead but there are those of us who have not been endoctrinated by the marxist socialists. We know the real history. As long as we live we can pass it on to a new generation that will fight against erasing what this country has been through.

I find it sad that with each passing generation we for get more about heros of past wars...

While I applaud your rough estimate I have all 9 season DVD's, so with this, I was able to bring your time frame setting in much close. None of the series or any of the movies after the fact were ever set in the 1950's, though they should have been,
