According to AOL, the Waltons are..... 19. 'The Waltons' (1972-81) One of the most wholesome family dramas of all time, the show revolved around a tight-knit rural Virginia clan with little cash but a lot of love as they maneuvered through the Great Depression and World War II. Tearjerker stories abounded, but the show is most beloved for its signature sign-off, which found John-Boy (Richard Thomas) and his large lot of siblings bidding each other goodnight. LHOTP was ranked 49th. To see the entire list go to : television.aol.com/insidetv/2009/03/11/50-best-tv-dramas-ever/ |

I'm surprised to see that The Waltons even made the list - much less that it beat Little House.
I am surprised because The Waltons are typically always overlooked... and while I love Little House (watching it on the Hallmark Channel right now!) it seems everyone always thinks of it before our Waltons. I'm glad they made the list - but most of their choices would not be on my list of tv drama faves.
Here's my TOP TEN:
1. The Waltons
2. Little House on the Prairie
3. Christy
4. Wind at my Back
5. Avonlea Series
6. Legacy
7. Remington Steele
8. Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman
9. American Dreams
10. 7th Heaven
Any other great dramas I'm forgetting?
