• The Waltons - Happy Bi...
Happy BD RICHARD- I saw Earl Hammer doing an interview back in day and he said Richard were more JOHN BOY than he was in real life !!!!
No one could replace Richard Thomas as John Boy ..
They tried 😶
but his chemistry with the writing and the cast
was magic ...
Happy Birthday ...
@@AndrewLawsonjughead67 yes tht show was kinda ur family when we were up th country it was fun
In my heart & child's mind, John Boy will always be 18 to me 🥰
Happy birthday 🎂
I understand.
Yes, I felt the same way until I saw him in person last year in the role of Atticus Finch in “To Kill a Mockingbird.” After a few minutes, John Boy went away and Atticus appeared. Richard is such a versatile and talented actor. He can make any role his own.
Please pass on to Richard how loyal Waltons fans are and that he is asked about often. Happy Birthday to your tv big brother. :) Thank you, Judy, for continuing to keep the fans connected.
Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed this.
Dear Richard Thomas I would like to wish you a Happy Birthday just because you are a great actor on the Walton’s and in life.
Happiest of birthdays to Richard, one of Americas favorite big brothers. A lovely tribute to Richard, Judy. My big brother was my hero when I was growing up in the 70’s. It seemed there wasn’t anything he couldn’t do! He’s now 63 and still my favorite! Mary
I love that you have that wonderful relationship with your own brother.
Happy Birthday Richard 🎂(John Boy) always loved your character 🫶🏼 you seem like a Sweet Man and a Great actor💯💫☀️

What a lovely birthday tribute for a lovely actor, friend. Awesome that Richard does so much theater. What a passion he has. You both are very special. I hope you both are in the public eye for many years to come…hopefully well into your 80’s or as long as you both can be! The sense of connectedness you have with the public, your fans, is special and valued.
Thank you so much.
I'm so glad you're doing this, Judy. I grew up on the Waltons. Miss those days.
Thank you.
Happy Birthday Richard.Thankyou Judy for bringing John boy alive.I really enjoy this video.Bless you and Richard's 💕
Glad you enjoyed this.
It's nice to have a brother who is protective! Your baby boy was a cutie Judy!(Didn't mean for that to rhyme).😊
😊 thank you
Happy birthday Richard. I'm almost 68 yrs old. The Walton's is still one of my favorite shows. I watch every weekday when I'm able.🥳🤩🎂 🎈 ❤️ 🎉💐
😢😮😅🎉
Happy birthday, John - Boy. I hope that you have more. Thank you for sharing this video. Love from Marysville California
Happy birthday, Richard! The scene where he gives you the roses brought bake fond memories of my oldest brother. He sent a corsage to our mom and me for Easter one year, even though he was in the Navy and stationed at Pearl Harbor. I was in junior high and it was the first time I had ever received flowers from anyone. I cried.
That is so sweet. Thank you for sharing about your own brother.
Thank you Judy for the memories of you and Richard. I loved the episodes that he danced. Happy Birthday Richard!🎈🎂
Thanks for watching.
My favorite moment between Mary Ellen and John Boy is in Richard Thomas’ last regular episode, when Mary Ellen tells the family that she’s pregnant and it takes just a second for everyone to process what she’s said before John Boy throws his arms around her and is yelling is congratulations at the top of his voice. It’s one of my favorite scenes in the whole series. I hope Richard Thomas had a lovely birthday he seems like a pretty stellar person.
So glad that moment stood out for you. Thanks so much for watching.
i always thought that the quilting was one of the best scenes ever and showed how much you and richard enjoyed those scenes
Thank you. Happy to hear that.
Happy Birthday, Richard, a.k.a. John Boy!! Thanks, Judy for this touching tribute! It was very sweet even though I had to gulp the lump in my throat. My oldest brother, Doug is so much like John Boy. (Get this: Doug & I were both born redheads--the only two of the eight kids, except he let his go white; I'm too vain for that and my red-headed granddaughter wants us to continue looking alike!)
Thank you for watching. Sounds like Doug is a wonderful brother.
I knew a family like that in my childhood. Dad was a redhead, Mom was a brunette.
Six kids: David, Linda, and Michael were redheads; Bobby, Dickie, and George were brunettes.
Happy Birthday Richard🎉. The Mary Ellen eye roll was a great reaction to “They’ll grow”. Typical Mary Ellen response.😊
Thank you. I agree :)
Happy Birthday Richard. I have had a crush on you from the first episode of The Waltons. Thsnk you for doing this special episode for Richards Birthday Judy! ❤
I understand - I had a crush too :)
Happy Birthday Richard! Loved him on the Walton's and love him in To Kill a Mockingbird!! Just saw it a couple Months ago in Grand Rapids MI. You were also great together 😊
Thank you. So glad you got to see him on stage.
This was beautiful, just beautiful. Thank you Judy for this wonderful segment dedicated to Richard's birthday and sharing those lovely photos of you both. I wish Richard a very happy and healthy birthday!! Best wishes to you Judy as always from your waltonian superfan in a cool wet England😉
My pleasure to share this birthday segment for Richard :)
Happy Birthday, Richard. Thanks, Judy, for sharing these memories.
Thanks for watching.
Hi Judy, I think John Boy was a great older brother. What a great tribute to him. Thanks for sharing and Happy Birthday Richard!
Thanks so much
This is a wonderful tribute for Richard Thomas, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, John Boy! May you have more happy, healthy, and long life to live. 🍧🎊🎂
I saw Richard in "To Kill a Mockingbird" in San Francisco last December. Wow! What a treat! He is an exceptional actor. The play and cast are amazing as well.
So glad you got to see him on stage. He really was wonderful.
Happy Birthday to Richard. ❤️
Richard Thomas is such a talent of stage and screen. An actor that makes you believe in his character's reality equally in live theater and television.
Happy Birthday to Richard Thomas!
Happy birthday Richard !! Thanks for bringing us great joy ! I also agree the banter between he and Mary Ellen was a highlight to the show. I consider John Boy America's big brother. Thank you Judy !
Thank you. So glad you enjoyed it.
I adore that picture of you and Richard on the red carpet for the screening of The Homecoming reboot. What a lovely picture that is, it makes my little Walton fan heart so happy 🥺❤️❤️🔥
Glad you enjoyed it
Happy birthday Richard. My girl loves that she shares her birthday with u.
That's awesome!
@@judynorton2598 she is only 10 but our family LOVES the Walton's. My girls also like to pick out the different characters that play in both The waltons and Little House on the prairie. There are quite a few I must say.
Wonderful, Judy! I'm most tongue-tied when I most want to say something special! Alas! Happy Birthday, Richard Thomas! Blessings and more blessings to you and your loved ones as you and John Boy continue to bless our life! You're a most gifted actor and kind person! Happy Birthday and many more! ❤💐📝📚
Thank you so much.
Happy birthday to Richard Thomas 🥳❤ Thank you Judy, all of you did a wonderful job of being a family. (I tell my residents on the Ahlzeimers unit 💜where I work that I still want to run away to Walton's mountain and marry Jim Bob)😂❤
I love that :)
Judy please tell Richard happy birthday very nice video
Will do!

Happy Birthday Richard

Thank You Judy for Having a Birthday Show for Richard!
My pleasure. Love my big brother!
Happy birthday!! A lot of good memories come to life when I think of that show❤
So happy to hear that.
Hi Judy, I grew up watching the Waltons, I always loved the show. One of my favorite episodes is the wedding when Curt Willard came to the show. Happy Birthday Richard may God continue to shower you with many blessings. Take care. 🎂 🥳 🎉 🎈
Thank you so much.
How wonderful to have such a special relationship with Richard off stage for all of these years. You're a sweet reflection of brotherly and sisterly love that you shared while acting on the Waltons too. Thank you, Judy!!❤
Thank you so much.
Happy Birthday Richard Thomas! Always thought John-Boy & Mary Ellen had a true sibling relationship in the series. Enjoyed for story of your brother too!
Thank you so much.
Happy Birthday..from Missouri
Judy....Tom Bower...very emotional, day’s later Hapy B D " John Boy" ....and 😮 wow over the years you have made me feel apart of the " Walton" family ...a yellow rose too you...thanks for your dedication to your channel.
Thank you so much for your sweet words.
Happy Birthday 🎉Richard! Enjoy the day and the rest of your tour!
Happy Birthday Richard from Connecticut!!! We love the Walton’s!
Awesome! Thank you!
Just realized I’m a year older than Johnboy 😊 such a nice tribute Judy thank you.
*Waltons
John Boy was so sweet. Richard Thomas was the best.
Happy birthday to our dear John Boy Walton. Many great blessings for Richard Thomas and more happy birthdays to come. 👍🏻
Nice walk down memory lane with all those stories showing how Mr. Thomas not only believably played your character's big brother but also how he in RL behaved as one when helping you deliver the best performances possible (e.g. screaming at you during your closeups when Mary Ellen accidentally sold the Baldwin Sisters' typewriter).
BTW, you and Mr. Thomas having sons a few weeks apart and each of you meeting them but them not meeting each other it's not unlike many large families in which siblings meet each other's kids but the siblings' kids don't always meet all their 'cousins'!
Thanks for this and Happy 73 [?!] Birthday to Mr. Thomas!
Glad you enjoyed this. Yes, the children don’t always have a chance to meet and hang together.
Happy BIRTHDAY Richard Thomas!
Happy Birthday Richard! So many wonderful memories as a child watching you and all the Waltons with my sweet Mom in the 70's. So grateful to revisit these happy times on TV. I recently saw you as Atticus Finch at Segerstrom . . . you still have that spark!! Thank you.
Hi Mary thanks for sharing all of us are in this age bracket we all growed up like family and still do watch all the shows there all great !!!!!
That is awesome!
Happy Birthday, Richard! My big crush! 🎂🎉🙏🏻
