Pluskylang Great Film overall

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Portia Hilton Blistering performances.

liblager65 Great show..remember from my youth..Ronny Cox was and is a great actor the ability to convey and live a role is paramount. I n this series he was asked to deliver the character's ideal...a recently returned prodigal son who comes home to raise his family as his parents did.This show followed the Waltons..not an easy task in the 70's..it was the highest rated family fare..it delivered..Earl Hamner had a pulse on 70's families..which I still miss..Many tried to copy and maybe did but this show in my heart remains one of the few that displayed ideals all forgotten today.The times were different but the idea of family and loyalty never go out of style..great time capsule of what I hold as family drama

Sheri I remember this as a warm and friendly family show. It was a family who had moved back from the big city to the Dad's rural hometown. It had perhaps a little reminiscence of the Walton's although it was set in current times, not long in the past and not narrated that way. The Apples, too, were a family that had a strong family relationship and strong religious beliefs.In fact, it may have been done by the same producer as the Waltons but I'm not positive. I was young and it's been so many years since it went off the air, but I remember my family being very disappointed when it wasn't renewed after the second year.

tinyspyder I was a small child, only four and five years old, when this was on TV. I remember it so vividly and I never forgot the name. My love for this show was right up there with the Waltons and Little House on the Prarie. I was so surprised when I looked it up to find out it had only been on such a short time. It made a much bigger impact on my childhood than that. I remember crying when my mom said it wasn't going to be on any more. Kristy McNichol was wonderful as Patricia! She was such a gifted child. I would love to be able to share this show with my children. If it was ever made available on tape or DVD I would buy it in an instant.

SRECCLES I remember this show too. I was only 8 when it was on, but at the time I enjoyed it. It would probably give me cavities now.Now I see it was really jumping on the bandwagon started by "The Waltons" two seasons earlier. "Little House on the Prairie" followed the same trend.One of the episodes I remember involved the father sitting in a tree to protest its removal. Eventually everyone in town came to join him and sing-along as he played his guitar ("Down by the old mill stream..."). I did find the cantankerous grandfather with a heart of gold a little annoying. And I never really adjusted to the actress change for one of the daughters.
