It's so good to see Hal Williams (Harley Foster) once again. His character along with Lynn Hamilton as Verdi Grant Foster were two of my favorite recurring characters on "The Waltons".

Hi Shyman, your comments are always on the mark.🤩 Hal Williams is iconic ⭐ I had forgotten how many roles he played. I also remember him fondly and comically on 227- which always cracked me up. and The Waltons usually made me cry.

I look at Hal Williams, and I realize how long it's been since I saw the show during its first run. All the stars on The Walton's bring back dear, treasured childhood memories. Most of the shows we loved. But some hit too close to home. Like the death and stroke of Grandpa and Grandma. Those were sad episodes for our family. We hated seeing them, but on DVDs, we watched them. They brought back memories of our Grandpa and Grandma. I know I can't, but I thank Earl Hamner, Jr. from the bottom of my heart for a show that evokes childhood memories and memories of our beloved, dear family. We watched The Walton's faithfully during its first run. I was 3 years old during the first season. I'm 55 now. You don't know how I treasure each minute of watching these reunion and memory online shows. Thank you. It's two simple words, and they don't express my gratitude, but you get the idea.

Nice to meet you Hal Williams. You are another part of the epic Walton's experience now getting your recognition thanks to Judy. These visits or fireside chats with friends and guests stars as I call , them are a exciting piece to the story weather its directly concerning the Waltons or other aspects of their careers and time in Hollywood. I made a new magic of Hollywood friend here today. Its the rewards of living a long life when bringing up subjects like the Waltons to a generation that wasn't born yet. Their response is no I'v never heard of it. My answer to that is, if you like the Hallmark channel you'll love the Waltons. Iv been with you since the Homecoming, and then reconnecting again during COVID watching the daily broadcast on MeTV. It was like seeing the episodes for the first time, now it's from a mid Sixtys year old perspective. A whole different emotional experience, and appreciation. Nowadays I Make sure im here twice a week, its as gratifying as watching the episodes when they first aired. Always something new to hear. Its your Judy Norton variety channel evolving with the times. Giving the special guest stars a platform to share their story is just one part of what makes this behind the scenes, ask Judy production of yours so enjoyable and appreciated. Just a friendly reminder your doing a great job. Thanks again for a look behind the house as you remembered it. I can see it now ! : )

It is only now that I am retired, and at home during the day that I have begun watching this gem of a TV program on the Hallmark Family channel. For a couple of hours each afternoon, you and your “brothers and sisters” provide me peace and respite from this weary world. Thank you for this gift! P.S. I found a new church, too!

And it will be almost a YEAR since Judy first mentioned the Festival in Kentucky last Fall 2023. That's when we met Froggie! Fond moments for sure ❤ We finally completed the FAFSA forms but Jon will not attend until the winter/spring semester. Froggie, parenting seems harder as your children grow into adulthood? You're such a young hands-on Grandmother moreover, you and Mr. Froggie have raised 2 wonderful responsible daughters. Parenting is still very daunting to me through each phase of our children's lives. I thought it would get easier as they grew up instead it feels harder Froggie. I can't imagine being Earl Hamner's Mom or Olivia Walton. I'm not tough like them, and Grandma Esther! They have 7x the worry. That's one big reason I watch The Waltons, I have stolen some of their teaching moments (lines) and used them on Jon! 🤩😁 Froggie, it is always so good to see a glimpse or more of you here. ❤💚

Lisa Lisa, what I’ve found with parenting is that it’s all just trade offs. When they’re infants you give them a bottle, then you trade off the time consumption of bottle feeding for the mess of food in a high chair. Then the trade off of carrying them till they walk but then they fall and cry all the time. So in my head its all trade offs. Even now with grandchildren. My relationship with my children is still just a bunch of trade offs. When one hard chapter closes and you think it’s all going to be easier…….nope, another hard chapter opens. All you can do is hope you find your footing before it hurts too much. Find the good in the moment. Like watching Judy, the Waltons and talking to Walton friends,(like you) it’s a bonus to life. I wish they would have a get together somewhere in between and us possibly both be able to get there so we could meet. 🐸

The Waltons have honestly helped me cope as you noted because the era might be different, but the concern and Love are the same. You've raised children and helped to raise grandchildren.

Judy, you may remember Hal was sitting next to you in Virginia in 1997, when I told him that I remembered "when he got in the greens" on "Sanford & Son". He said: "You did have to bring that up!" He and the other policeman were eating a salad which may have been laced with marijuana. He was also there in 1993, when I saw you and Eric Scott at the Vicki Lawrence talk show. Then I saw Hal again at the 40th anniversary with Lynn Hamilton and Marla Gibbs (his wife on "227").

Then the war at Pearl Harbor happened And I think Verdis daughter came home and reminded us that everything was segregated The other time that we were reminded us about segregated That’s when John and Harley went to see the president to clear Harleys name. When they walked into that restaurant that’s when we were reminded that everything was segregated. I just loved that Walton’s mountain accepted Harley and Verdi I can’t remember a time they were treated differently thank you Judy I just enjoy listening to their stories.

Loved this, I feel this man is a legend. I have seen him in so many TV shows and he is an amazing actor in so many different roles. I loved him in The Waltons as Harley. He is so talented in all his roles. So glad he is doing well. He is so correct in saying TV shows have changed so much and most not for the good.

OH MY GOODNESS!! I’ve been waiting for this! When watching Sanford & Son, I never put it together they were on the Waltons too! They were such good actors that they had me focused on the characters they were portraying. My prayers for Ms. Lynn that her health gets better.🙏🏽 Thank you for this Ms. Judy!👏🏽

Wow, he's not afraid to express himself! That's good. He's honest, & to the point! That's good too. He also has a wonderful sense of humor Judy . I bet he wishes he could do it all again! He's interesting, he's sweet. Honestly I don't remember him on the Waltons, only on Sanford & Son, he was a gas. The love of God shines out in him. He is amazing such a good memory too. Interesting man, fun to listen to all his stories. God Bless you both ..

I watch “The Walton’s” each weekday on MeTV. I still enjoy it. My late Mom grew up during the Great Depression and was a young woman during WWII, she enjoyed watching with me and spoke of how true to life it was. You have such interesting guests. Thank you , Hal for your long commitment to excellence in your career.

Mr. Williams sounds exactly the way he did on “227”. Glad that he’s still working. I get where he’s coming from too. The respect for the art and craft isn’t there anymore and that’s very sad. I’m not a fan of “The Waltons” but I clicked this cuz i like him and wanted to see this interview. I’ll be definitely checking out that episode with Mr. Williams

Judy, this is just tremendous! Mr Williams, thank you for your story about Earl Hammer asking you for story issues! I can just see that! I appreciate your kind words about Lynn Hamilton too. I'm sorry to hear her health is not good. I've mentioned before here I admire her way of speaking. I had the chance to meet Ms Hamilton at Walton's Mountain Museum and she is a very lovely and gracious person! I loved your storylines on The Walton's. I'm just a little younger than you, but you are so right about the generation gap among some today! Thank you so much for taking the time to chat with Judy and us fans! The apple picking episode is one of my top ten favorites and The Best Christmas is one of my top five favorites! That frozen pond water rescue scene looked so very real I worried everyone would have frostbite !! I admired your work in Roots also. I don't think I recognized you and Lynn Hamilton in Sanford and Son since the characters and costumes were contemporary. You have a lot of fans out here, not only in the U S but abroad as well! Thank you, again, Judy for sharing more of the goodness of The Walton's and all who created such wonderful stories! Bless Walton's everywhere!❤

How great to see Mr. Williams. What a talent. I'd forgotten about him on "Harry O." Enjoyed him on Sanford and on 227 in addition to his work as Harley. Sorry to hear of Ms. Hamilton's illness and will keep her and her granddaughter in my thoughts. Looking forward to part 2 of your conversation (AND to his upcoming appearance on the new Matlock). So glad you were able to pull this off.

Well that was very interesting to hear Hal's take on the industry as it is now. He will always be Harley to me and I still remember his line in the show about walking on a glacier and even sleeping on one😅. Thank you for this segment Judy and best wishes as always from your waltonian superfan in a cooler but not cold England😉

I am so happy to see and hear from Hal Williams. I have enjoyed his work since Sanford and Son and he always brings a strength and authenticity to his characters that is truly impressive. It is such a delight to see him again. It doesn't hurt that Hal is also a companion Buckeye and represents central Ohio like nobody's business. Time flew as I watched you both sharing your memories, practical thoughts and dreams with us. I hope there is more of this interview and I would love to see Hal as many times as he wishes to be seen. He is one of my all-time favorite character actors, and his leading roles have been awesome as well. Thank you Judy for sharing this conversation with us. Great job again, as always.
