The Waltons

The Parting - S7-E15

Visible crew/equipment: After Elizabeth shares with Olivia some details of learning to cook with Esther, Olivia tells her daughter that she has come down from her treehouse (a poignant compliment). In the next shot, when John drives up to the home, crew reflections are visible on the vehicle's windows. (00:08:55)

The Parting - S7-E15

Visible crew/equipment: After Olivia lays down on the beach while John continues to fish, when it cuts to Ike and Corabeth on the motorcycle and sidecar, a director's chair (beside the normal Walton lawn chair) is visible at the left side of the screen, just as they turn toward the home.

The Rumor - S6-E14

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 Outrage: Part 1 - S9-E1

Trivia: While everyone is at the table eating supper and talking, little John Curtis taps on John's shoulder, then John turns and asks "What?" John Curtis points to his pants and excitedly says, "I got new pants," and John says, "I see that. Who got you those? Your mommy?" Then John Curtis looks offscreen, away from the other actors on set, and replies, "No, from Pat," (no characters named Pat are on the show) and without missing a beat, John responds, "From Pat? Where does she live? On the next farm?" And John Curtis answers, "Yeah," amidst all the giggles we can hear, so John answers with a smirk, "Okay, good!" This is such a hilariously precious unscripted moment, and great they decided to leave it in the episode. (00:26:15)
