I love the Waltons for a number of reasons. I was born and have lived in VA all my life. We live about 50 miles from the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains. I'm the same age as the children on the show so when the show aired, I was the same age as Erin and Ben. We lived with our grandparents, and I didn't have 7 brothers and sisters but about 16 cousins who were like siblings. My grandparents and mother are gone now but when I watch the show it's like going home. I love all the characters and in my opinion it's the best TV show ever!. Thanks for the interview, Michael is such a great actress. Love her!
I absolutley loved the The WALTONS show I watched this today I own all the series on DVD, and watch them. Love michael and john in the show. the show was perfect
The Walton's series allowed viewers to connect with the entire family. There was a sense of family unity during a time when the United States was struggling during the depression. Valuable life lessons were learned, we experienced family gatherings around the kitchen table, grandma's stroke, grandpa Walton passed away, and John-boy stepping out on his own, following his dream of going to college and becoming the writer he always wanted, and dreamed of becoming.....The daily struggles of family life, learning valuable lessons through the eyes of Earl Hamner... I think anyone would agree - there was a connection within ourselves. We could identify with the characters. It was as though Walton's could have been a family who lived down the dirt road from your house. Past the Godsey's store, there's a swimming hole you'll pass along the way, follow the dusty road around the bin, you'll see the Walton house just to the right....Say hello to Zeb and John for me!
I watch The Waltons for the escape to when life was a but more similar. The chemistry with the cast really shows throughout time. Unconditional love never ages.
When you left the Waltons, it's apparent they missed you! Ralph did a good job representing the two of you. Maybe it was acting to you, but the emotional maturity was real. Great writers.
"The Waltons" is and will always be my very favorite family TV series. I loved all of the actors in the series and am proud to say that I have met almost all of those individuals except Judy Noton (Mary Ellen) and Richard Thomas (John Boy), Will Gree and Ellen Coby. All of them are so down to earth. Michael riding the bicycle was certainly a different role for her on "The Waltons." A great episode. Can't wait to buy her book.
The drink Olivia order at the bar was called an orange squeeze. John was a little ashamed to order it, L O L. She is a wonderful, down to earth classy lady. And those days gone by of her playing Olivia Walton I cherish so much, as well as the series. My family was very much like that growing up in the hills of Virginia
I would love to see Michael play anything. I enjoyed watching the Walton's and will enjoy seeing her in anything she plays in the future. Nobody can ever replace any the original actors who played the Walton's. When Richard Thomas left the show and Robert Wightman replaced him it wasn't the same. We came to love all the original actors who played each of the Walton's. Lastly, can't believe how great Michael Learned looks. 🙂
It's popular today because of the wholesomeness. The closeness of family is another reason. Plus the lessons learned from each episode. If parents are able to keep their child watching The Waltons over being on the internet it would be a great thing. Most I converse with are around my age, 62. If younger parents could introduce this show to their youngsters it would become a hit again. Erin in Renfrew Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
Michael did a fantastic job in the Dahmer series. The Walton's is my all time favorite show. My father-in-law was an actor that knew Michael (Bernard Behrens). He thought she was a lovely person. I would be first in line to buy her book.
I further see the wonderful woman Michael is with these current interviews. So grounded and kind. I have to say I pride myself in being able to recognize just about everyone in a foreign project but I sat through the entire Dahmer without recognizing i was in the presence of Michael Learned as Jeff's grandmother. I did feel the familarity, but to check the cast later to uncover Olivia Walton! Currently, I do see Michael's face, but the speaking voice completely threw me off. I don't know that Michael was speaking with an accent but she did not sound anything like herself. And that was a wig and not Michael's hair.
How interesting that Michael liked to watch herself on The Waltons for all she could learn about performance. She must have been beguiled by Olivia Walton.
Jim Bob coming of age was a joy to behold! When I was young it was all about John Boy but in reruns a lifetime later I see how Richard having left the series did not diminish the show at all. Immediately it carried on with more wonerful stories of the other children. As they matured they grew into these wonderous characters themselves. Jason and Erin. The Pin Up! When I was growing up I thought grandpa Zeb a bit of an old poop but I see how wonderous he was now. He never lived to see his grandsons go off to war. Surprisingly, Esther, grandma, becomes radiant in the wake of Zeb's death. There is absolutely nothing like The Waltons. So perfectly cast in every way. Cora Beth!
It's very popular - watch it (or record it) everyday. I love it because there's not any other show like it! The characters are all wonderful and lovable! The Walton's can never be re made!
Won’t ever watch anyone else play the Walton’s here just these wonderful originals for me ! Loved this interview you could tell liv was flawed but the love for family overruled anything and I think this certainly impacted me on my life values.

I remember when you went on a bike ride!! And that was so far out of the box of how we expected your role and duties as a mom to be!

Thank you Michael for another wonderful interview. Please write your book. A lifelong Walton fan.
Thanks for listening.
U were the greatest Mama ever Ms.L.. What a great part.
Thanks for the comment.
I loved this show. So nice to see her doing well!
MY FAVORITE EPISODE OF THE WALTONS WAS WHEN THE TURKEY HUNT AND JOHNBOY KILLS A BEAR.

Walton's can't be recreated as those values are dead in Hollywood today mostly Gay monsters like Dahmer was Gay
Great interview! The Waltons was one of only a few American series that we got in the UK growing up. I still watch it to this day.
Thank you.
The Waltons was a true family show that everyone could watch and enjoy together 💜💜
I will always love watching the waltons
Thank you for the comment.
I can’t wait to read your book Michael!! :-) Would love to hear about your real life family and career!!
It’s popular because those kind of morals are so rare and valuable! IMHO

Thank you for this excellent interview! We have the Waltons on DVD and watch it often. 🥰
Thank you.
I'd LOVE to hear the coming of story.

The new John Boy character was like a different character...
@@MsJanetLouise Exactly😊
watched some of the early shows ,,I was working nights, so I didn't get a chance to watch until recently.

That's wonderful. Thanks for the comment.
Dahmer series? Can you elaborate? Is this series on TV of Netflix? I would like more info because I love Michael Learned a great deal
@@June-rb1nx It's called "Dahmer - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story," and it's available on Netflix: www.netflix.com/title/81287562?source=35
I love the show I just got all the Walton’s dvds and collection movies . I love you as your character ❤️ I wish I could meet you all of you.

How real were the Baldwin sisters as Michael says?...

Thanks for your comment.
The drink Olivia ordered in John's Ceossroad was an orange squeeze. John acted embarrassed to order it.
You are correct. Thanks!
Won’t ever watch anyone else play the Walton’s here just these wonderful originals for me ! Loved this interview you could tell liv was flawed but the love for family overruled anything and I think this certainly impacted me on my life values.

Orange Squeeze Oliva drank for the first time
This is what's missing: shows that reflect real people and situations!
Thanks for your comment.
Named my son after Michael Learned. 😊❤
still so pretty.
Hi Michael why did you quit the Waltons. ?
First of this was a good interview. Second for heavens sake she is an actress doing a job. She isn't Olivia Walton. Though I love her in the role and the show. Nor is she Dahmers grandma. She's a good actress.
Thank you kindly for your comments.
Orange Squeeze was the drink Olivia ordered at the Dew Drop
Thanks for your comment.
Sometimes I can't stand the way Coral Beth talks about things. I bet there's some others who would agree with me.
plus michael learned played on gunsmoke tv show 4 times
I wasn't a huge fan of the Homecoming remake except that the father has more scenes than in the original.
Orange Squeeze
Wish Olivia did not leave
I just looked up his performance in my city and the ticket prices range from $364 to over $1K each!
Orange squeeze
The Waltons......HBO J. Dahmer story totally different audiences.
I'm from Wisconsin, I didn't think we had an accent. I remember the whole Dahmer case
Who are you closest friends in Hollywood?
She's an actress, it's just another job.
Exactly.
Are you and Sally Field Friends?
What famous people have you been thrilled to meet?
Did you ever win any awards?
I couldn’t stand the new rendition - there was nothing the same imho!!
The interviewer had such a heavy drawl. Annoying.
Many find it charming.
