The Waltons (TV Series) The Diploma (1979) User Reviews

Bogus

[dalegore · 2/10 · 7 September 2020]

In season 4 episode 4 John Sr celebrates his 25th high school reunion with many friends. It would seem an easy task to prove his graduation. In fact his Army Induction papers from WWI would list his education. Premise doesn't pass the smell test.

Not as Bad as Others Say

Two earlier reviews panned this episode on the theory that either the Army wouldn't require a high school diploma or how he could have proved his education level. What they missed is the fact the Army accused him of making a false statement on an application, that was their primary concern. The only criticism I have for this episode is that the G2 lieutenant's performance was "a little over the top", other than that it's a typical Waltons episode.

Totallly Ridiculous!

[SlimJim39 · 4 December 2018]

I don't know where the writers came up with this one, but it is totally ridiculous. There was never ANY requirement for any goverment contractor to be a High School Graduate, without a doubt one of the stupidest episodes of this series ever.
