"The Waltons" was a spin-off from the 1971 Hallmark Hall of Fame television special "The Homecoming: A Christmas Story". "The Waltons" was a CBS series that is based on Earl Hamner's autobiographical writings about love, pride, faith, and survival in rural America during the 1930s and 1940s. This show introduced a family (a mountain clan living a hardscrabble existence that forced patriarch John Walton (Andrew Duggan) to seek work, far from home, mostly in the city).

In the TV series, the personas of all the family members come into focus. John's iron willed wife Olivia (Patricia Neal) keeps a lid on the children's worry. Oldest son John-Boy (Richard Thomas), who privately dreams of becoming a writer but worries about disappointing his parents, is used to handle situations which his dad would be expected to handle. John-Boy's brothers and sisters each face personal and family problems growing up while fighting against the many pains of poverty. In the end the family is seen as one that draws strength and closeness through endurance. Love, hope, and sharing are abundant in the Walton family.
