Why MeTV didn't show The Ghost Story episode when Richard Thomas was still employed as a Walton and it's almost Halloween I'll never know. That was really eerie with the little boy visiting the Waltons in hopes of joining his father when he found them a place. The boy's mother has died and her spirit has come with him in the form of floral aromas and other unexplained phenomena to watch over him.
Instead they give us this really badly written episode that is total unbelievable. I thought Elizabeth's head was going to start spinning and have super strength. All very silly and Michael Learned acted like she hated the script. Listening to Ike recite Shakespeare with a western drawl was just totally crazy. He has a good speaking voice. I never saw this episode in all my Walton watching years and wish I missed it. Yes, Elizabeth's friends at the party were so over the top it was like the director said 'just keep screaming.' This episode should have been shelved.
