Editorial Review: Description: It's 1936: Hitler and Mussolini threaten the world, King Edward gives up the English throne for love, Gangbusters is on the radio, a movie crew hires John-Boy as a scriptwriter, Mary Ellen applies to nursing school, Jim-Bob discovers a shocking fact about his birth and a fire drives the Waltons from their home. Events large and small, far off and near touch the lives of all 11 Waltons, from Grandpa down to little Elizabeth. They bring tests, tears and triumphs...and bring the closely knit Waltons even closer together. Amazon.com: The Waltons: The Complete Fourth Season finds life on Walton's Mountain changing in some significant ways. The first episode, "The Sermon," sets the tone with a story in which oldest son John-Boy Walton (Richard Thomas) is asked by the local preacher (John Ritter) to substitute for him at one Sunday service. Meanwhile, John-Boy's mother, Olivia (Michael Learned), is asked by the local schoolteacher to fill in for her for a week. Each of these Waltons has doubts that they're up to the task (Olivia has an especially hard time, since her charges include several of her own children). But they persevere, and Olivia finds herself teaching on and off throughout the season. Meanwhile, patriarch John (Ralph Waite) has a midlife crisis that causes him to leave home for a stretch, a cousin of Olivia's comes to grieve the death of her husband, the family closely follows the abdication of King Edward from the throne in England, and musician Jason Walton (Jon Walmsley) has a crisis of confidence as a performer. Special episodes include "The Fighter," starring Cleavon Little as a boxer who takes a paying job working for the Waltons, and whose presence upsets Olivia and Grandma (Ellen Corby). "The Genius" finds John-Boy being asked by his school to supervise a brilliant but socially cold 16-year-old who has to learn a lot about life. --Tom Keogh Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Good EntertainmentIt's nice to be able to show tv shows to my grandchildren and not have to worry about the content. The shows always have a moral to the story and shows them how to deal with situations that come up in their lives. Rating: - super satisfiedown all published seasons to date, been looking for this dvd for a long time, was so excited to find it on the amazon website, and the price was also very good. Rating: - The Waltons DVD season 4I own all six of the complete seasons that are currently available and have pre-ordered season seven. I have always been a fan of "the Waltons". My only regret is that the DVD's are printed on both sides, thus subjecting them to more wear and tear. I am very careful in handling them but still some episodes inevitably get dirty or scratched and skip and jump. I guess this is unavoidable. I have watched all six seasons at least four times. I love the series but wish the DVD's were less prone to damage. ... Read More Rating: - Simply the most uplifting TV series everI was a fan of the Waltons twenty-five years ago, but now that I'm older (and maybe wiser) I see what the series really has to offer - a precious look into a life style now almost forgotten. The show gives us a look into a simple, loving way of life we can all choose to create even in this complex 21st Century, if, of course, we see the value of it. My grandsons will be watching the series with me in the years ahead and we'll be talking about the depth and beauty of the relationships so genuinely portrayed ...

These disks are great entertain from tweens to the elderly. I would recommend the series to anyone. Browse for similar items by category:
