This had to be the worst "reunion of an old series" movie I have ever seen in my life. I was an avid watcher of the original series when I was a child, in the 1970s, and I kept with it until the series ended in the early 1980s. At the time, the farthest the series went was around the mid-1940s. I don't recall the series following through to the end of WWII, but it might have.
At that time, the older Walton kids were starting to marry and have families.
Now, here comes the reunion movie. It's 1963. And the Waltons are dragging their KIDS, YOUNG kids, home for the holidays. Hello? Are these kids made out of some material that only ages one year for every three?
Finally, dragging Ellen Corby out of the nursing home for this one was a mistake. I'd rather remember "Grandma" as she was, than to have her staggering, unable to speak, onto the set for this turkey.
