I just got done watching my favorite episode right now and got to thinking what episodes other members have as favorites. I know to ask for just ten is not enough all of us could probably name more than that but give it a try let us know some of the episodes you love the best.
Here's mine in no particular order and I could easily name 10 more too.
The Prophesy The Venture The Fox The Literary Man The Celebration The Sinner The Burnout The Baptism The Chicken Thief The Heritage

My favorites
- The Best Christmas (Livvie plans a big Christmas celebration but no one shows up.) - The Cloudburst (John Boy sells the meadow; Zeb is pissed.) - The House (Grandma gets into a snit when John and Zeb want to tear down a local historical landmark.) - The Quilting (Mary Ellen resists attempts to put her on the market for marriage.) - The Sinner (Rev. Fordwick comes to town and gets stinking drunk on the recipe.) - The Prophecy (Livvie and Grandma organize John’s class reunion when his classmates prove too incompetent.) - The Substitute (Miss Hunter takes a leave of absence; everyone hates her replacement.) - The Job (Grandpa is pissed that John is babying him, so he and Grandma run away from home.) - The Anniversary (John and Livvie escape to the top of the mountain to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary.) - The Achievement (John Boy flees Waltons Mountain after his novel is published.)

Extremely difficult to narrow it down to just ten. I've many of my favourite lists- it is constantly changing or evolving, but here it is . 1) The Best Christmas ( I love the Christmas season ) 2) The Children's Carol ( love Christmas season and England.) 3) the Easter Story 4 ) Day of Infamy 5 ) The Sinner 6 ) The Typewriter 7) The First Day 8) The Book ( part of John Boy journey as a writer) 9) The Achievement ( John Boy finally gets published, and Elizabeth goes Jessica Girl Spy bonkers!) 10 ) Grandma Comes Home ( the episode still makes my cry each time I watch it. The moving ending and also knowing Will Geer will soon pass away.)

The seasons are in parenthesis. 1. Love Story (1)
2. The Silver Wings (8)
3. The Wingwalker (4)
4. The Marathon (3)
5. The Romance (3)
6. The First Casualty (6)
7. The Woman (3)
8. The Journey (2)
9. The Burnout (4)
10. Day of Infamy (7)
They cover seasons 1 thru 8 but my favorite season is #1 although the list has three episodes for season 3 and two for season 4. John Boy is featured in four episodes making him my #1 character. Romance seems to be the obvious theme in the list with six episodes.

I watched The Literary Man the other day on Me TV and remembered how much I love this episode. Then I thought about my favorites, so I'm resurrecting this post. Season One - The Literary Man-I had such a connection with the character Andy. Not sure why, but it was such a soulful episode. The Love Story-This episode made me fall in love with The Waltons. It had everything I wanted in a television show. An Easter Story-The story and the acting were superb. Season Two - The Journey-Stunning performances by the old woman and John Boy. The Conflict- Martha Corrine is probably my favorite of all the characters on the show. Season 4 - The Sermon-I love how the show revolved around faith and all its different reflections. Season 5 - The Pony Cart-Again, Martha Corrine The Achievement-The last scene always makes me weep. We have all experienced the sorrows (and joys) of change. Season 6 - Grandma comes home - So poignant, especially because we know that this is the last scene with Grandma & Grandpa at the end of the show. Season 7 - The Parting-You can truly see how much Olivia & John loved each (and in real life to boot!)

The Romance and The First Casualty are definitely fine episodes as well...The Prophecy, too.
I remember Michael Learned saying that her favorite episode was the Anniversary where she and John celebrated 25 years of marriage.

The anniversary was a favorite of mine also. I loved it when Olivia had her first taste of champagne in the gazebo and her reaction to it!

Sorry I haven’t been on the Forum for a while. Life has just been crazy lately and it seems I spend more time just keeping my head above water! I love all the Forum posts and my habit was to read them before I go to bed. Now I’m asleep by the time my head hits the pillow! I will try to make time for more involvement, I hope.
I loved to read everyone’s post of their 10 favorite episodes-but truly CRUSHED that not one person included “The Firestorm”! I know it is a favorite of Judy Norton and I know Earl thought it one of the best, also. But, obviously, I am a tad biased!!
Well, I love EVERY SINGLE SHOW my Mom was on. The residuals helped paid for part of our son’s college tuition!! I hope the reruns last forever!!!
