CW Announces The Return Of Scooby-Doo Reunion And The Waltons

CW is taking viewers back into time as they reveal some of the programs to take up slots in their schedule for the second quarter of this year. They went as far as back as the early 70s to bring back The Scooby-Doo Reunion Special and The Waltons Homecoming.

The two programs will be the headliners for the second quarter of their programs, with the dates for their premiere yet to be announced.

The Return Of The Waltons

The Waltons Homecoming special takes fans of the movie series back to events at Walton Mountain. The Waltons became a favorite sitcom for viewers after it first aired in 1972.

The Waltons series was created by Earl Hamner Jr., who wrote the book, Spencer’s Mountain in 1961. He subsequently produced The Waltons film in 1963.

The Waltons Homecoming is showing on CW to commemorate the 50th anniversary of an episode of the Walton film titled The Homecoming: A Christmas Story, which was aired on the 19th of December, 1971. The film was the springboard for the creation of The Waltons series.

The cast members for The Waltons Homecoming special include Bellamy Young who plays the character Olivia, Richard Thomas, and Logan Shroyer, who plays the character of “The Narrator”, John Boy. Richard Thomas played the John Boy character in the original film.

The Waltons Homecoming revolves around John Boy, who wants to fulfill his wishes to be a writer in the middle of the great depression and finding a way to help his parents out financially. He then embarks on a journey that will change the course of his life.

The series is to be jointly produced by Magnolia Pictures and Warner Bros. Television, with Lev L. Spito as the director.
