Thanksgiving and Friends Episodes

[flossieskid]

Eureka! While suffering another insomniac stupor, I was searching through my TV channels early this a.m. and went to the Inspire network which shows The Waltons. I forgot I could explore upcoming episodes.

I saw there is a 2 part Thanksgiving episode and a few shows which say the highlight of a “friend” of one of the kids: i.e. John Boy seeing his friend stealing chickens and JB doesn’t know if he should turn him in plus a few others that seem to allude to friendships of the kids.

Good to know. I guess my memory is worse than I thought. But most of the shows were in early 1973-1974. I guess my only excuse is I got married and had our first child during those years, so I assume I didn’t watch as many Waltons shows then. But, I have put those episodes on my TIVO so can see them soon!

The Thanksgiving episode is, undoubtedly, the two-parter in which John-Boy is injured at the mill and has to have brain surgery in the midst of trying to write his exams for entry into Boatwright. Oh, and Jenny comes back.

The chicken-stealing friend is Yancy Tucker.
