I'm not sure what the problem is. I just now edited your post to include the smiley, just to see if it would work.
What browser are you using? Are you using a computer or a mobile app? That could make a difference, I guess.

I like Bill Atkins' site, there's so much information there. I only found it about 5-6 months ago and I sent him an email because he's from a town less than 30 miles from my hometown. And we attended the same college with overlapping time periods. It's a small world after all. Funny....we could've been watching a Waltons episode a few hundred yards from each other as he lived in the neighboring dorm. He sent me back a nice reply saying he did all the website research while he was starting up his own business many years ago and things were slow. Too bad but he's never been to a reunion he says.

That's neat, Jeanne!! I use his website all the time -- I love the way he's set up the family, friends, neighbors, visitors, etc., and the songs and poems.... lots of fun to go through and find things you never knew.... There's so much info, I frequently forget some of it so have to go back again and again -- I feel like I know him and wish I did !!

Scroll down to where it says "Historical Society" and, once that comes up, you'll be able to click on the various parts.... For some reason, I can never find Atkins' episode guide at that website (probably just ME), so here's a direct link to that:
www.the-waltons.com/season1.html

Does everyone realize that Lewis Arquette was the father of Roseanne Arquette, Patricia Arquette, and David Arquette? And that he was the son of Cliff Arquette, better known from Hollywood Squares as Charlie Weaver?

Yes, he was certainly part of a show biz family. He wrote to me a number of years before he died and gave me an update on each of his children!

I think JD added some humor to the show and his chemistry with Erin was great. JD and Erin were good sparring partners yes, a good back and forth intensity between them. Erin definitely knew how to handle this man compared to her romances. As for JD s name probably Jefferson Davis for a Civil War person was it, but like BJ on MASH his initials were kind of a mystery The name Pickett is itself a great Civil War name (as in, General Pickett of "Pickett's Charge" fame). I wonder if that's why it was chosen.

But he'd certainly be the subject of a few lawsuits!
