6/10 I have never watched a single episode of this miserable schlock; therefore, all of my answers were guesses.

I got 7/10 correct. Not bad, not bad at all.

One thing that's definitely true: Walton's Mountain will always feel like home.

5/10. Seeing as how I never watched an episode, not too bad.

Eight out of ten. Not too bad, given that I only vaguely remember it.

I got 9/10, totally unaware that the final word in the last episode was “Goodnight.” So fitting! It is so strange to realize that I saw “The Homecoming: A Christmas Story” when I was in the first/second grade — and watched the very last episode when I was in 10th grade in Ohio!

As for Richard Thomas departing the show: he signed a five-year contract and John-boy graduated from The Walton Mountains School. Richard (remember, his character is based on Earl Hamner) knew he had to depart Waltons Mountain to truly become a writer in NYC. Just like Earl left Cincinnati for Los Angeles to write for TV — like The Twilight Zone. Richard departed and told the staff/crew/cast that he would return for guest spots. For no extra SAG fee. He did it because he wanted to.

I looked at this and thought, "what the hell, why not". I got 6 out of 10 with 9 guesses 😉

The Answer Is: Sunday, November 8th, 2020.
The Question Is: When was the passing of Alex Trebek?
Condolences go out to his family and friends. R.I.P.

Didn't see the last episode.

I only missed #4 and #10. Not bad for a guy who's never seen the episode, right? I just went with whatever made sense.

Was unable to be a Waltons' fan - only because my brother and I had to watch EMERGENCY on another network 🚒
