The landmark series that celebrates family comes to DVD! The Waltons built their home on the timeless mountain that bears their name. They built their lives on even stronger stuff: the bedrock of family. Experience the tender debut episode of the beloved series that ran 9 years and won 5 Emmy Awards its inaugural year, including Outstanding Drama Series. Richard Thomas plays John-Boy Walton, a youth on the verge of manhood during the Great Depression and a fledgling writer whose observations are filled with the growing-up lessons and love he receives from his large, tightly-knit clan. In The Foundling, the Waltons patiently teach a mute, abandoned girl sign language---a skill that later pays a priceless dividend when she helps a rescuer locate that missing, imperiled Elizabeth. Color. CC. Not rated. Approx. 50 minutes.
