    If I was an actor, I would be so proud to have the very first aired episode of the Waltons series on my resume. Her role was especially powerful and I have never forgotten Charlotte's character. A sign of excellent writing and superb acting. Thank you so much Charlotte for visiting this channel as us viewers consider you an extended family member.

    loved that episode of the Waltons. loved how after they learned the little girl was deaf that they had to learn how to communicate with her. it was Johnboy after seeing the girl leave the room while everybody was laughing at the radio figured out she was sad and he got her to use sign language the first time and the rest of the family followed his lead. loved Charlotte on Little House. it was a sad episode when she left. it was after Mary went blind and then everybody moved to the city.

      Yes, I feel the same, probably tons of us do here... Judy Norton's journalistic style is what makes these segments so peaceful and exciting at the same time. She gives ample time and space for guests to talk about their lives and how they intersected with their time on the Waltons. Funny thing is Mary Ellen is a lot more feisty, and Judy Norton is a lot more laid back. The tempo of Judy's videos is so enjoyable. I can listen to her show and be doing something else (that isn't too distracting that is) - like a good song playing 😊

After Susan died in 2011, every show we watched together would bring me back to those special moments we shared, both enjoying shows we liked or loved. I wish I could've watched The Waltons with my sister. She would've loved it as much as we loved Little House when we were little. The Foundling was such a great opening episode - and many episodes thereafter just reinforced the quality and the impact of The Waltons.

      @@nancymaxwell7212 Hi Nancy, I am so sorry about losing your Sister Susan. She must have been very young.
      It must've been excruciating for your Mom to lose a child. Your Mom had to be one strong woman. When my sister died during my Mom's long battle with Stroke complications, We didn't know how we were ever going to tell her that Susan died suddenly. Surely it broke my Mom's heart even more. Still, so many memorable times and even watching a simple yet deeply moving show like the Waltons made life shared with them so worthwhile. My Mom died in 2017 and whenever I watch a show, with a strong loving Mother figure in it (like Grandma and Olivia Walton) - almost immediately memories of my Mom come rushing back.

Her role on The Foundling was so moving, I watched it completely intrigued without breaking for a snack (btw I love nibbling on chocolate Bars Duane Barbic without guilt). Charlotte Stewart's gripping role showed such believable desperation of a Mother's love, just leaves you heartbroken and sympathetic to her plight. The little girl was exceptional too. That first show was overwhelming to say the least.

    It was nice seeing Charlotte. I Often wondered about her and other actors from my favorite shows. I spent more time than I should’ve in front of the TV growing up. I just found it all fascinating. My parents said as a baby they could put me in front of the television and never hear a sound from me. I’d just sit there watching Big Bird and cartoons. I even liked the game shows. Television these days is a mine field of what doesn’t interest me, lol. So I often go back to my youthful days to rewatch TV programs that mean so much more to me than just entertainment. These shows like the Waltons, Little House, All in the Family, Star Trek, The Incredible Hulk…etc, shows with heart essentially, formed my psyche, educated me about humanity, right and wrong, good and bad, I wouldn’t have chosen a better decade to be introduced to television than the 70’s. The shows, the actors are like my extended family and when one passes on, it hurts like hell. But then I remember, they left behind a legacy that we can continue to enjoy in their absence so they never really vanish from the world. They’re still here talking to new generations and are as alive to them as they still are to me. These Videos you do, Judy, give us a kind of intimacy of meeting each other that only the internet could give. That’s the one good thing about it. Television brought us together, but the internet brings us to the tables of our homes and we get the chance to do these back and forth conversations. I wish more actors would reach out to their fans in this way. It’s a special medium that needs more positive usage in my opinion. Anyway, I need to get some lunch. I like that painting of the flower behind you, btw. I do landscape paintings myself.

I lost my dad at 10, so my family still watched both with tears in our eyes, but it still makes me feel like he was there.

    You are so good to us, Judy, to arrange such lovely interviews. I thought you were terrific, Ms Stewart, as the little girl's Mom, a backwoods wife during The Great Depression! Whoever decided to lead with that episode made a good choice! In the Great Depression many children were given to orphanages or sent to live with distant relatives or families who could feed and clothe little ones. It was especially tender John Boy's scene helping the little hearing impaired child make the connection between ideas and hand spelling! Ms Stewart, I love your work as Miss Beadle! You're a perfect and kind one-room schoolhouse teacher of that era. Believe it or not, I saw Eraserhead! A fellow I dated briefly and his friends were big fans and showed the film one evening. I also thought Twin Peaks was a stylish cutting-edge kind of series. There's no doubt Michael Landon was brilliant! It's so good of you, Ms Stewart to take the time to chat with us fans! I don't have FB. Perhaps you're on Instagram. It's great you sew everyday! Blessings to you both and Walton's and LHOP folks everywhere. ❤💐

    Two of the best family shows that my family and I can watch together. It's great to hear the actors who are still with us get to talk about it. Mrs Stewart is still Miss Beatle too me....typecast in my mind, I've seen her in alot of the shows she has been in and she is great in all them but she is Miss Beatle. I really enjoy these.

    Charlotte Stewart was and amazing Actress on the Walton’s, when she appeared, as the mother, who left her child, on the cellar door, for John boy, to find. Her innocent and loving character, in this episode, the foundling, was so endearing. So believable. I loved her, as well on, LHOP, as Ms Beadle, the very caring and understandable, but stern, teacher. I loved her interaction with all of her school children and how she would have her own way of dealing with each one of them. She was the best teacher on the show, more believable than, Melissa Gilbert and Leslie Landon were. I have seen Charlotte Stewart, in many other shows, many westerns, and she has always gave a stellar performance in everything had a role in. This was a very nice interview with Charlotte Stewart and she looks wonderful. Thank you Judy, for letting your viewers, see her, and to know how she is doing. Great interview. Love your new set today. Looks great. Just a side note to you, Judy.
    Richard Thomas is in my hometown, this week, in his hit play, To Kill A Mockingbird. What a Treat. The Show has gotten Rave Reviews. And Richard Thimas, was interviewed here, locally, as the star 🌟 of the show, and It is such a huge honor to have John boy, here in my hometown. 💙

      Yes I did, and Richard Thomas, is beyond, Amazing. Such a Class Act. And so humble in his performance. I saw the original, To Kill a Mockingbirrd, with Gregory Peck, and his performance was absolutely, phenomenal. But to see Richard Thimas, first of all in person and then performing, that, very, iconic
      role, was truly a highlight, and a pleasure for me, as a longtime fan of Richard Thomas. Great Actor 💙❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙
      Loved it ❤️

    What a lovely woman! I haven't seen any of her other work, except Little House and I haven't watched that in so many years. (I haven't rewatched it multiple, multiple times like I have The Waltons!) But no matter - it was so fun just listening to the two of you have a conversation...both of you obviously enjoying catching up and making plans to stay in touch! And with all that she has done in her career, here is another actress who has such fond memories of her guest spot on The Waltons. I have said this before, but it is always heartwarming to have people realize the impact of The Waltons, on their lives and in the industry. Thanks, Judy, for a great "chat" shared with us!

I absolutely love The Foundling episode ❤ literally yesterday, I was just looking back on this episode and watched a video I filmed of the ending scene where everyone was in the living room after Elizabeth was saved from the box. Thank you Charlotte for talking with us and thank you Judy for having her come on your channel! And I hope you are having an amazing day ❤

    Charlotte Stewart was the perfect “Miss Beadle” on Little House on the Prairie. She had such a soft, soothing voice and was so nice and caring and compassionate. She was always so kind to Mary and Laura, and all the children. The blonde angel.

      Thanks for joining us. Her book is heartfelt, sincere, racy, honest - she has lived quite a life. By her own admission made a lot of mistakes but she has persevered. It’s a good, fun read and evokes that period in Hollywood. Clearly a bit of a wild time.

    Charlotte Stewart will be remembered most for being a teacher on Little House Miss Beatle I have them all for now and I love her for that . she was fantastic in this episode she played it to the max. I never saw Eraserhead. Your role as Mary Ellen was written so well except maybe the confusion of Curt dead Curt alive episodes but you did them masterfully

    Hi Judy and Ms. Charlotte. I loved the "girl talk ." Some of the stories were funny. Who doesn't love to laugh?
    Charlotte Stewart has had quite an awesome career. I will certainly be sure to pick up a copy of her book. Miss Beatle is definitely one of my favorite tv teachers. Michael Landon gave everyone an opportunity to be a part of those "tear jerking" moments. He was great and he is also missed.
    Thank you Judy for yet another lovely surprise. 😊

    The first time I saw Charlotte was on the original Hawaii 5-0. The episode was called "And They Painted Daisies On His Coffin". She is very talented. She had me glued to my set. I always hoped to see her again. Then I saw her on The Waltons. I've never seen Little House On The Prairie. She's a lovely, dignified lady. Thanks for this, Judy. It's nice to see some of the guest stars from The Waltons.
