5.0 out of 5 stars Eight is Enough - Christmas! June 25, 2010
By Mike
Amazon Verified Purchase
This is an early in the series 2 part episode. It's just afetr the loss of Diana Hyland (Joan, the Bradford mother). The epsiode deal sensitively to the family's first Christmas without their mother and also deals with the addition of Abby (Betty Buckley). There's so really great moments in the 2 part episode even though their Christmas is ruined by guest star Will Gier (The Walton's). Yes, Nicholas there is a Santa Claus is a grea title for this. I just wish more of Eight is Enough would be on DVD. Can you name all the Bradford children and who played them?

Here they are followed by who played them:
David - Grant Goodeve
Mary - Lani O'Grady
Susan - Susan Richardson
Joanie - Laurie Walters
Nancy - Diane Kay
Elizabeth - Connie Needham (Newton)
Tommy - Willie Aames
Nicholas - Adam Rich

5.0 out of 5 stars The good old days... December 21, 2012
By C. Gruman-Trinkner
Format:Amazon Instant Video|Amazon Verified Purchase
The holiday shows bring back fond memories. These shows are from a time when humor relied on clever words and scenarios rather than profanity and shock.

5.0 out of 5 stars feels like a visit back in time October 21, 2012
By Tommie
Amazon Verified Purchase
I have enjoyed the Walton tv shows This episode is one of my favorites. Christmas has always been a precious time for our family to be together. I can understand the Mother's desire to have all the family together for as long as she can. Although I was not alive during the 1940's I feel like I could have connected with a family like the Walton's.

1.0 out of 5 stars what a waste May 27, 2012
By James E Spencer
Amazon Verified Purchase
What a waste of time and money. I downloaded this but can't watch it unless the Amamzon downloader is open on my computer. Forget about trying to save it to a CD it's copyright protected and has to remain on your PC taking up resources.
