rncpd Review of A Walton Thanksgiving Reunion

A Walton Thanksgiving Reunion (1993 TV Movie)

Waltons 1993 Movie not Like the Original Series

[4/10 · 2 April 2008]

I faithfully watched the Waltons growing up every Thursday night. I was excited when I heard these movies would be airing in the 1990's. I have to say I was very disappointed with the reunion movies. The Thanksgiving movie is not accurate in r/t original series. John Curtis is not mentioned--only other children Mary Ellen had (in one of the post series movies in the 80's--Mary Ellen was told she could not have children). Her husband was not there. Erin was now divorced. Where was Ben's son that was born in post series movies in 80's--named Charlie? It would've been nice if they had picked writers that actually knew what went on in the 9 year series. A big disappointment. The only redeeming quality was the return of the wonderful Richard Thomas to the role of John Boy.
