Season 3 / Episode 17: - The Matchmakers

Narrator: [narration as John 'John Boy' Walton, Jr. reading from his journal] When I recall the young years on Waltons Mountain, I remember the pleasure of ordinary events and the ordinary people who shaped them. But there were other times when neither the events nor the people were ordinary, and our lives were altered for a time.
