A Walton Wedding (1995 TV Movie)
Yikes

What a sad follow-up to a great series. Excellent character studies have been replaced with dumb humor, stereotypes and a messed-up calender. The year should be in the 50s, not the 60s. This date change is unnecessary. The whole college scenes with Olivia are ridiculous. She was such a strong character originally, and in no need of feminist literature to assert independence. John-Boy's hair cut destroys any semblance of a believable time period. Yes, it is that annoying. Currently, I am watching Season 7 on TV Land. It was probably the last good season left in the series (it would, unfortunately, continue for nine, and with a "new" John-Boy). There was great potential for these reunion specials, but they turned into holiday and wedding greeting cards, of the faux-country type.
