It was December, 1933, and the Walton family was relieved that their patriarch John (Ben Lawson) would returning to Virginia for the holiday. Christmas Eve, however, brought a fierce blizzard-and as mother Olivia (Bellamy Young) sent her eldest John-Boy (Logan Shroyer) to look for his father, he'd find his life changed forever. Remake of the beloved series' pilot film-after half a century-co-stars Marcelle LeBlanc, Christian Finlayson, Marilyn McCoo, Billy Davis, Jr.; Richard Thomas narrates. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.
