Noticed it before, but it really stands out this time - both Ep and Ike are wearing rugs?? And did Ike have an eye lift? I also noticed Grandma's stained glass window in her bedroom is gone. What's with that?

This is also where Rose enters the picture. I can't find any credits for her on the DVD case. What is her real name and is she still alive?

What's with that? In Joe Conley's new book someone did mentioned him if he is wearing rug and he actually try to pulled it off to show the person that his hair is real not fake. Also in the book he did have cosmetic surgery on his ear not eye lift.

His hair sure looks like a rug, so thick and wavy... and I compared his face from a couple of series ago to this one and there's quite a difference in his face. With the ear surgery...whatever it was...it tightened up his face and took away most of those huge bags he had under his eyes. He used to look like that guy that plays the lion on 'The Wizard of Oz'. He had big bags too, with heavy eyelids. Ike was still a cutie!

I do not think they ever identified the girl with whom Roland Pfieffer jitterbugs in class during the Valediction episode.

Thanks Tracey. And I am almost reasonably sure that the correct title of the last episode of Season 8 was The Valediction rather than The Valedictorian as some have posted previously!

Yes, that's what it is. I wonder if it is different because of gender. I had never heard that word before.
Notice Livy had odd teeth this season. Pure white, big...she must have gotten them re-done.

Does anyone know why Michael Learned came back for half of Season 8 after she already left the series, only to leave again?

I looked up valediction and this is what I found. A valediction (derivation from Latin vale dicere "to say farewell") is an expression used to say farewell, especially at the end of a letter, or the act of saying parting words- whether brief, or extensive.
The word valediction is commonly used in English to refer to a complimentary closing - a courteous, formulaic phrase preceding the writer's signature that expresses the writer's good will toward the recipient.I guess to say farewell would have been appropriate I think season 8 suppose to be the last season and they decided to do season 9 after A Decade of the Waltons was so popular

I noticed that Susan McClung was a regular on Birch Interval, a 1976 series which did not even finish that one season, and then she guest starred in T J Hooker as well as Knots Landing in 1981 in which she played the part of a girl named Cindy---at the same time when the Waltons was still on----
