Starring: Eric Scott, Jon Walmsley, Judy Norton, Mary Beth McDonough
Visible crew/equipment: When Sara picks up Olivia she gets into the vehicle and they compliment each other, then as they drive away the reflection of location set lighting is visible on the small window of Olivia's door. (00:04:40)
Visible crew/equipment: When John and Hank stop off at Yancy's shack because he knows where the fish are biting, just as John and Hank approach the front door, a crew member is visible at the left side of the screen. (00:19:00)
Visible crew/equipment: At the mill, when John tells Buck that Willie Brimmer might be at the Montgomery cabin with Jim-Bob, in the next closeup of John we see a billowy trail of cigarette smoke at the bottom right corner of the screen, but the only people standing there are Elizabeth, John, and Buck, and none are smoking. Presumably, it was someone offscreen smoking too close to the camera (similar to a mistake in 1978's "Halloween"). (00:26:05)
John Walton: I hate this draft job, Liv. I can't stand playing God to my neighbors' sons.
The Journey - S2-E1
Trivia: While Maggie MacKenzie and John-Boy are at the Mermaid Restaurant, when they both dance together Maggie envisions her long deceased husband, Michael MacKenzie, dancing with her instead of John-Boy. It is Earl Hamner Jr. who portrays Michael MacKenzie in this uncredited onscreen cameo during the scene (note teeth and facial features are identical).
