	Earl Hamner, the Forgotten Twilight Zone writer
		Hamner’s earlier work is overshadowed by his success as writer, creator and narrator of “The Waltons”, arguably the best-loved family series in television history.
		Earl, as writer and creator of The Waltons you were often present on the set and involved in the filming.
		HAMNER: I am not surprised by the ongoing interest after all this time because the series falls in the “classic” category — which in my mind can be defined as a work that has a universal message and is written with style and has a literary sensibility.

		Earl Hamner is truly the "lost" writer of the Twilight Zone.
		Part of this may be due to the fact that Marc Scott Zicree all but ignored Hamner's contributions in his seminal analysis of the series, "The Twilight Zone Companion"; another likely factor is that Hamner later made his reputation with "The Waltons," about as un-Twilight Zoneish a TV program as it is possible to imagine.
		It is worth noting, too, that in at least one case, a Hamner episode generally dismissed as a failure as produced is revealed to have been simply a victim of poor acting and directing.

		Based on the life and writings of Earl Hamner, Jr., The Waltons plays out like a nostalgic version of the current WB series 7th Heaven.
		In Season One, the Walton family opens their doors to a deaf child, carnival workers, a traveling minstrel, and even a famous New York City actress.
		I’m a fan of the show and I know I might’ve gotten a kick out of a photo gallery showing the actors but also the Hamner family members that inspired the series.
