...The Waltons Season 2 dvd boxset ------------------------------------------------ As a huge Walton's Fan I was very excited at the release of the second series on DVD, and I was certainly not disappointed! For those of you who are not familiar with the Walton's - Shame on you! The Waltons was a drama series filmed during the 1970's.
