Summary: TVC 600.6: Via remote from The Hollywood Museum: More highlights of our coverage of the special event, held last month at the Hollywood Museum, that celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of The Waltons (CBS, 1972-1981) and the launch of the new Waltons event. This segment includes Ed’s exclusive interview with actress Ellen Geer, the daughter of Will Geer (“Grandpa Walton”) and the artistic director of Will Geer’s Theatricum Botanicum, plus a clip from the special roundtable discussion, moderated by Leonard Maltin, in which cast members Michael Learned and Richard Thomas reminisce about Will Geer. The Waltons Exhibit is now on display at The Hollywood Museum and features original costumes from the series, props from the set, landmark scripts, cast-loaned collectables (including the Emmy Awards that Michael Learned won for her performance as Olivia Walton and the dress that Mary McDonough wore in the episode in which Erin Walton got married), the typewriter that Waltons creator Earl Hamner used when he wrote scripts for the series, and more.
