That doesn’t surprise me. Actors are concerned with how they appear, exaggerate height, etc.

^ I don't want to mention any names, but his initials are Tom Cruise. (Did I say that out loud?) He's notorious for that.
Eric Scott has admitted (somewhere in this forum) that, for him, his height was never an issue, so the fact that the writers and producers played it up was fun for him. I had often wondered if he had requested those story lines but, like Daniel Radcliffe, he accepted his height and went with it. It certainly didn't slow either of them down.

I think Eric was a pragmatist and appreciated any and all storylines that he got. 😉 He has said that it was his idea for Ben to sell advertising space for John-Boy's newspaper because he knew it would give him more screen time. As my grandmother would say..."That boy has no flies on him!" |

I would laugh at their fragile star egos, than I remember just a couple of years I would " stuff" in order to look older and more mature and more like my older sisters.

I always thought they were put together for the paper because I've felt that Ben and John-Boy shared a 'favourite brother' relationship, a relationship that neither shared with either Jason or Jim-Bob. I'm rather disappointed that it was all because Eric wanted more screen time. |

Remember, even though the Waltons have become our extended "family," while it was being shot, it was still a job. And like many of us in our jobs, when we are young and hungry, we look for assignments that will be high visibility and get us noticed or even promoted. I certainly did. 😊 I'm neither young nor hungry now, though. If I work at all, I seek assignments I enjoy and try not to let it stress me out too much. Although I fear the one beginning Monday will be quite stressful. ::;Sigh::: oh well, it's called "work" for a reason. 😁 |

^ Don't feel bad. I was going to put a winky face at the end and forgot. I wasn't disappointed at all. Ben is my favourite character so more screen time isn't a problem for me at all.
